DBT
– AMTZ COVID Medtech Manufacturing Development
DBT-AMTZ COMManD [COVID Medtech
Manufacturing Development] strategy is to address the
shortage of critical medical equipment in India and move
progressively towards a stage of
self-sufficiency. This an excellent example of how
supportive governance and progressive science could be
brought together to address immediate and futuristic
priorities.
AMTZ is an established medical equipment manufacturing
ecosystem and DBT is a pioneer
department within the government of India for support of
medical technologies sectoral
growth. Under this strategy, DBT is supporting
Andhrapradesh MedTech Zone (AMTZ) which is Asia's first
medical equipment manufacturing ecosystem, uniquely
dedicated for Medtech. The
COMManD strategy has 3 focal points.
Supporting the startups and
innovators that have till now taken support
from DBT/BIRAC for medical technology projects. All these
innovators and entrepreneurs are being supported by AMTZ,
technologically facilitated towards the next level of
product realisation. This includes steps such as inclusion
of their innovative technologies in the formulation of
appropriate standards, providing subsidised infrastructure
for testing and validation, facilities for prototyping,
partnership with manufacturing
units and provision of startup space and furthering their
chances of development and market access.
Many medical device manufacturers have the potential to
make critical equipment like ventilators and diagnostic
kits, thermal scanners or medical textiles, which is much
needed in COVID context as well post-COVID period.
However, to rapidly scale up the
manufacturing, it would require a huge
investment in plant and machinery, without which such
scale-up will not be possible.
DBT, therefore, is supporting AMTZ to invest in the plant
and machinery in these companies which are situated within
AMTZ campus in Vishakapatnam so that their
rapid scale-up of infrastructure and production
capabilities could be achieved.
Drafting of appropriate standards
and safety norms, validation protocols for these medical
technologies such as Ventilators, N95 masks and so on.
This would be an important area of support to ensure that
their quality and safety are upheld, at the same time
ensuring their registration on government e market place
and through the orders received by AMTZ from the
government of India is met. This provides industrial
partners with an avenue for market access.
DBT-AMTZ COMManD strategy is therefore a three pronged
approach which has been put in place by the support of DBT,
GOI and the ecosystem support of AMTZ, to ensure that
rapid infrastructure capabilities are used for
progressively improving the manufacturing capabilities of
domestic manufacturing in the medical technology sector in
a rapid and quality assured manner.
The oucome of COMManD Strategy
would be:
I) 10,000 kits (RTPCR) per day increasing upto 40,000 bits
per day by May 30th
ii) 10,000 units (antibody) per day increasing to upto
60,000 units per day by May 30th
iii) 3000 ventilators per month from the month of May
iv) 1000 infra red non touch thermal scanner per day
v) 3000 PPE kits per day
vi) 40,000 (N95) masks per day |
