Healthtech Data & Architecture Readiness Review

Prepare a healthtech product and its data foundations for the scrutiny that comes with pilots, hospital partners, procurement and growth.

Why teams reach this point

Healthtech teams must make product progress while handling health or other special-category data. Architecture, DPIA work, integrations, clinical workflows and operational controls are often developed separately, leaving gaps when a partner asks how the whole system works.

Risks the review surfaces

  • +Health data flows, lawful purposes, retention and access rules are not aligned.
  • +Prototype integrations or manual workflows become hidden production dependencies.
  • +Security, privacy and operational responsibilities are split across vendors.
  • +The team cannot provide a concise technical narrative during procurement.

What I review

  • +Map sensitive-data flows, roles, integrations, storage, access and retention.
  • +Review deployment architecture and the controls around clinical or care-adjacent workflows.
  • +Identify DPIA, MDR or IEC 62304 awareness points that need specialist follow-up.
  • +Translate findings into engineering priorities for the next pilot or review.

What useful closure looks like

  • +A usable data-flow and architecture risk map
  • +Priorities tied to the next commercial milestone
  • +Clearer evidence for partners and procurement

Relevant experience

  • +Production healthcare systems used by 5,000+ users
  • +Sensitive-data architecture and privacy controls
  • +Experience working with clinical and research stakeholders

Frequently asked questions

Is this a medical-device certification audit?

No. It is a technical readiness review, not conformity assessment, legal advice or certification. It can identify where specialist regulatory or quality support is required.

Can you review a product before a hospital pilot?

Yes. A defined pilot, working product and known data flow are a useful point for reviewing architecture, access, integrations, privacy controls and evidence gaps.

Will you implement the fixes?

Implementation can be scoped after the review, either alongside your engineering team or through a focused remediation engagement.
