It is too big of a question for a single discussion.
I recommend that you find a consultant to help you with a gap analysis and a a quality plan for this transition.

Good luck,
Shimon

This is only something that we are thinking about. If we did go forward I would hire a consultant. I was just seeing what I may be "in for" if we decide to take this route; as ultimately it will be up to me.

When the FDA is concerned, I usually find that @Watchcat is incredibly knowledgeable.

Will you be producing a finished medical device? Are you already in compliance to ISO 13485? In most cases, if you are compliant to 13485 you can very easily align with the requirements set by the FDA because they are 'mostly' harmonized. I'm the kind of person who finds standardization to be nothing but beneficial to companies. Certified or not, having structure will help you with production and quality.

If you produce a finished medical device within the US and do not comply with the FDA, there could be very serious ramifications.
