What does Product Catalog Management mean for a medical device company?
It is the structured operational work of organizing, cleaning, mapping, updating, checking and publishing approved product information across the systems and channels your business uses. The scope can cover product identifiers, model and variant data, packaging levels, specifications, images, document links, distributor fields, ecommerce fields and approved regulatory metadata.
Do you create or approve regulatory claims for medical devices?
No. Rudrriv can organize and populate information that your authorized teams provide, but regulatory, clinical, legal and quality-system judgments remain with the client and its qualified responsible functions.
Can you manage UDI, UDI-DI, GTIN or device-identifier fields?
Yes, as catalog data fields when the client supplies or authorizes the source values and mapping rules. Rudrriv does not issue identifiers or determine which identifier a device legally requires.
Can the service support U.S. GUDID-related catalog data?
The catalog workflow can include client-approved data that is also used in GUDID or AccessGUDID contexts, such as device identifiers and selected device attributes. Formal GUDID regulatory submission responsibility is not implied unless separately and explicitly scoped with appropriate qualified oversight.
Can the service support EU EUDAMED device data?
The catalog model can include client-approved UDI, Basic UDI-DI, nomenclature and device attributes relevant to EU workflows. Rudrriv treats these as controlled source data; regulatory submission and compliance responsibility remain with the manufacturer or other responsible economic operator.
Which product sources can you work from?
Typical sources include approved spreadsheets, ERP or PIM exports, product master records, packaging data, approved labels, instructions for use, datasheets, image libraries, distributor templates and channel-specific import files.
Which systems or channels can be included?
Scope can cover PIM or MDM systems, ERP exports, ecommerce platforms, distributor portals, marketplace templates, internal product databases, DAM libraries and structured data feeds such as CSV, XML or JSON. Access and mapping requirements are confirmed before work starts.
How is pricing calculated?
Pricing is custom because effort changes materially with product count, number of variants, field count, source quality, packaging hierarchy, documentation, number of destination systems, transformation rules, language requirements, review cycles and required update frequency.
Why is there no fixed per-SKU price on this page?
A simple product upload and a regulated multi-channel medical-device record are not equivalent units of work. Rudrriv first reviews a representative sample, required fields and destinations so the quote reflects the actual data and review burden.
How long does a catalog project take?
Turnaround is confirmed after scope review. A small, clean, single-destination batch may move quickly, while migrations, large backlogs, incomplete source data, multiple approval owners or multi-system mapping are normally planned in controlled phases.
Can you clean an existing medical device catalog instead of rebuilding it?
Yes. Catalog cleanup can include duplicate review, missing-field identification, normalization, category and attribute consistency, packaging-level alignment, broken document links, image checks and preparation of exception lists for client decisions.
What information must we provide before work begins?
You should provide the approved source of truth, field definitions, sample products, destination templates or access, publishing rules, naming conventions, known exceptions, approval contacts and instructions for any fields that must not be changed without authorization.
How are changes reviewed before publication?
The workflow can use sample-batch approval, field-level validation rules, exception logs and client review checkpoints. Final publishing or handoff is performed only within the access and approval process agreed for the engagement.
Do you write product descriptions?
Description formatting or drafting can be included only when the source material and approval process are clear. Rudrriv will not invent clinical benefits, indications, contraindications, regulatory status or performance claims.
Can you maintain the catalog after the initial cleanup?
Yes. Ongoing work can be scoped for new-product onboarding, approved field updates, distributor template maintenance, content refreshes, channel synchronization and recurring exception reporting.
What is outside the standard catalog-management scope?
Unless separately agreed, the service does not include regulatory strategy, device classification, clinical evaluation, legal advice, quality-system certification, UDI issuance, regulatory approval, medical advice, translation certification, product photography or software integration development.
How do you handle confidential product information?
The initial enquiry should contain only enough information to scope the work. Detailed files, credentials and proprietary records should be shared through the project workflow agreed after scope review, with access limited to what is necessary for the assigned catalog tasks.
What happens after I submit the enquiry?
Rudrriv reviews the requested catalog scope, representative data, systems, review dependencies and timing. The team can then clarify open questions and provide the appropriate custom scope and commercial proposal without implying regulatory approval or compliance assurance.
