Research & Development

Helping You Turn on the
Power of Innovation

A key Corporate objective for Bard is to develop new and innovative products that meet the needs of our customers and patients.  A major initiative has been put in place at each division to support this - 
THE IDEA GENERATION PROCESS.

Bard Sales Representatives work with physicians and clinicians everyday and discuss our products, ways to improve them, and new product concepts.  These clinicians are a great source to identify exactly what is needed to support a specific clinical application or to better improve the patient experience.

Bard's IDEA GENERATION BROCHURE outlines the steps that we have put in place to facilitate this process:

• Idea Submission Form -- see link below
• Evaluation & Screening
• Business Analysis
• Development
• Testing
• Clinical Validation
• Commercialization

This brochure emphasizes Bard’s know-how, experience and extensive organization to mainstream great product ideas into the marketplace.  We also underscore Bard’s tradition of Quality, Integrity, Service and Innovation in Advancing the Delivery of Healthcare™
