3P510(k) Review

– Skip the Line to FDA Clearance

Cut approval times by over a year and bring your Class II device to market in as little as 60 days

What is FDA’s Third-Party Review Program?

The 510(k) Third Party Review Program provides medical device manufacturers with a voluntary alternative review process, in which accredited Third Party Review Organizations (3P510k Review Organizations), such as BeanStock Consulting, are allowed to review select medical devices while still maintaining FDA oversight.

The FDA Third-Party Review Program allows you to:

Fast-track your clearance by getting FDA review and recommendation in as little as 60 days, compared to the 31-month median for traditional submissions.

Save time and resources by working with 1 of only 7 FDA-recognized review organizations worldwide, experienced in over 250 Class II product codes.

Reduce regulatory uncertainty with early FDA-equivalent feedback with a dedicated reviewer that minimizes delays.

What’s the process

We make the 3P510(k) process simple—early interactions with the FDA, conducting the FDA-equivalent review,
providing comprehensive requests for information, and delivering a recommendation to and obtaining a
response from the FDA in as little as 60 days.
