In this episode of the Predictable Designs Podcast I speak with Mike Morena and Shawn Litingtun about how to evaluate suppliers and manufacturers.

Mike Morena started a successful medical device company called AdhereTech back in 2012 who’s core product is a smart bottle that helps to insure patients take their medicine on schedule. The product is now used by tens of thousands of patients.

Mike is also a mechanical engineer with massive experience working with manufacturers and suppliers.

Also on the call today is Shawn Litingtun. Shawn is an electrical engineer, who happens to be one of the best electronics designers I’ve ever worked with.

In the past, Shawn worked for both Compaq computer and Blackberry, and now he does full-time consulting. In addition to electronics design, Shawn also has a lot of experience evaluating suppliers.
