Team for Growth

Frustrated at having to rebuild an army of independent consultants--many which have never worked together before--for each new venture, Avio’s founder, Morgan Evans, saw an opportunity to consolidate fractional expertise as a cohesive team.

​​

This team would not only support acceleration of 3 female-founded entrepreneurs in the Medical Alley, but also invest in accelerating the systems, processes and paperwork of medtech.​

​

Others liked the idea and asked for help. And thus, Avio was born as a startup serving startups.

 

Having served almost 100 customers and growing to nearly 20 people, HCI rebranded to Avio Medtech.

​

While the name, look and feel may have changed, what hasn't changed is our commitment to supporting startups with the brightest team in the industry.

To ensure quality as Avio grows, a leadership team was hired with company President Julie Pritchard-Hedtke and VP of Sales, Frank Jaskulke added.

​

Avio is investing in tools, templates, and team to radically advance the medtech innovation process and drive cost, time, and risk out of startups.

 

​

Our Process

Medtech is not like other industries. The discipline required to design a product, assure quality, meet regulatory requirements, and get to market leaves no margin for error. There is no pivot to a new use if something goes wrong. You start over.


Avio provides the expertise, structure, and support to turn an idea into a successful product, and an entrepreneur’s dream into a business. Our team has the full range of skills required to complement your team, filling the gaps or providing the services that a start-up or growing company needs infrequently.

Avio Engagement Approach

We have a full portfolio of offerings and functional expertise to augment and integrate with your existing team. Typical needs include QMS Implementation and Management, Project Management, Software Quality, and Regulatory advisory.

NEEDS ASSESSMENT

​We want to meet you where you are to deliver exactly what you need.

​

  • What is your current state of your company or product?
     

  • How can we partner with you to achieve compliant product development, processes or outputs without reinventing the wheel?
     

  • What scope of work do you require? Which of Avio's offerings do you need, and in what quantity?

ENGAGEMENT

We aim to be as efficient as possible, knowing how important every dollar is to a cost-conscious startup while providing the highest quality support.

​

  • Contracting: We provide efficient support at highly competitive rates. 
     

  • ​Project kick-off meeting: Let our team get as enthusiastic as you are about bringing your product to market or to support your business.
     

  • Project charter: We put together a holistic roadmap outlining the key deliverables, resources, and timelines associated with your project.

EXECUTION

We guide and execute on the project charter with whatever level of engagement your team requires.
 

  • Work with you to build and maintain the quality system for the project (as required).
     

  • Revisit the project charter as the project develops and adjusts to evolving needs.
     

  • Generate agreed upon deliverables in a capital efficient way.
