For decades, medical device manufacturers in the US relied on 21 CFR 820 (QSR) — a system known for being procedural and checklist-oriented.But starting February 2nd, 2026, FDA will implement QMSR, changing not only the regulation structure but also the inspection philosophy.QMSR does not eliminate Part 820. Instead, FDA is amending it to incorporate ISO 13485:2016 by reference, bringing the US closer to the global quality language used across Europe, Canada, Japan, and beyond.Why FDA is doing thisFDA's move is driven by three key goals:Harmonization (reduce duplicated systems and audits)Modern quality thinking (move from “procedures” to “system effectiveness and risk”)Inspection efficiency (more end-to-end audits)What inspections may look like under QMSRInstead of jumping between SOPs, inspections may follow real flows like:Complaint → Risk Management → CAPA → Design Change → Supplier ImpactThe focus becomes traceability, consistency, and risk-based justification.What companies should do nowTo be QMSR-ready, companies should:Build an ISO 13485-style process mapMake risk visible everywhere, not only in product developmentImprove CAPA triage and effectiveness checksStrengthen design controls (especially software development & V&V)Train teams on the new “why/how” inspection styleWho is Monir El Azzouzi? Monir El Azzouzi is the founder and CEO of Easy Medical Device a Consulting firm that is supporting Medical Device manufacturers for any Quality and Regulatory affairs activities all over the world.

Home inspection is one of the most popular second careers and side businesses for first responders, and for good reason. In this episode of The Ride Along Home Inspection Podcast, we talk with a working firefighter and home inspector about why firefighters, EMTs, and other first responders often excel as home inspectors. We break down how skills from emergency response—risk assessment, situational awareness, building knowledge, and communication under pressure—translate directly into better home inspections. We also discuss how inspection experience can make first responders safer and more effective in their primary careers. Whether you're a firefighter, EMT, or police officer exploring home inspection as a second career, or a homebuyer curious why inspectors with first-responder backgrounds bring extra value, this episode explains the crossover skills, challenges, and real-world benefits from both sides of the job.

Gary Brown is a former attorney and CPA who ditched billable hours for buildings, turning a brotherly townhouse-flipping side hustle into Furnished Quarters, one of the largest corporate housing providers in the U.S. He leads a service-first operation across major markets like New York, Boston/Cambridge, and the Bay Area, blending tech, design, and a very real "stuff breaks at 3am" mindset. Susan and Gary talk about service, standards, and survival stories. • Why corporate housing is hospitality first and real estate second • Service recovery that actually keeps clients calm when everything goes sideways • Move-in magic that prevents the "week one complaint festival" • Inspection systems that catch tiny problems before guests do • Communication rhythms that build trust when lights go out or floods happen • Setting expectations for big-city living without scaring people off • Relationship selling that lands major accounts and keeps the pipeline moving • Conference strategy that works pre-event, not just at the cocktail hour *** Our Top Three Takeaways 1. Corporate housing succeeds or fails on service, not real estate. While the apartment itself is the barrier to entry, Gary is clear that it represents only a small fraction of what defines a great stay. The real differentiator is hospitality-level service: constant communication, fast problem resolution, and setting expectations when things inevitably go wrong. Corporate housing, in his view, should be run like a 24/7 hospitality operation, not a passive real estate business. 2. The first day of a stay determines everything that follows. Move-in is the most critical moment in the guest experience. Furnished Quarters invests heavily in inspections, buffer days between stays, detailed arrival instructions, and proactive outreach after arrival. Many complaints can be avoided entirely by over-preparing for that first impression and by addressing small issues before they turn into frustration. 3. Strong relationships and preparedness outperform tactics in sales and growth. Whether discussing conferences, entertainment clients, or long-term partnerships, Gary emphasizes that success comes from relationship selling and advance work. Deals are rarely made by chance. They are built through consistent presence, pre-scheduled meetings, local involvement, and long-term commitment to the market. This same mindset applies operationally when things go wrong: recovery and trust-building matter more than perfection.

A crowded server board with ten thousand parts doesn't forgive sloppy inspection—and neither do pricey GPUs and chiplets. From the floor of Productronica in Munich, we dig into how automated optical inspection keeps advanced packages honest once they hit the PCB line, where solder quality, coplanarity, and sheer component variety can make or break yield. Vidya Vijay from Nordson Test & Inspection joins us to unpack why AOI remains the fastest path to actionable insight, when X‑ray is the smarter choice, and how new sensor design changes the game for reflective, high‑mix assemblies.We explore the real pain points engineers face today: shiny dies that confuse cameras, BGAs packed with I/O where hidden defects hide under the body, and miniature passives that crowd tight keep‑outs. Vidya explains how three‑phase profilometry creates true 3D height maps by projecting fringe patterns and reading them from multiple angles, enabling precise checks for corner fill, underfill, and coplanarity. We also get into multi‑reflection suppression, Nordson's approach to filtering glare and ghost images so the system sees the joint, not the noise. With true RGB on side cameras and higher resolution, AOI can now pick out tiny solder balls and subtle surface issues at speed—fuel for stronger AI autoprogramming and more reliable defect classification.If throughput is king, data is queen. We talk about closing the loop from inspection back to the line to prevent bad lots—flagging stencil drift, placement offsets, and paste issues before they explode into scrap. Then we spotlight Nordson's launched SQ5000 Pro: faster cycle times, a wider field of view, and configurable 7 µm or 10 µm sensors designed for modern PCBA demands. Whether you're chasing yield on high‑value GPUs or balancing AOI with AXI on dense boards, this conversation offers a practical roadmap for choosing the right tool, tackling reflectivity, and using insight to drive predictable quality.Nordson Test and Inspection Delivering best-in-class test, inspection, and metrology solutions for semiconductor applications.

In this episode, host Beau Wigington chats with Mark Levin, Nate Bowman, Jason Becker, Adam Stretch, Justin Nixon, and Austin Hargit about welding education that matches today's work, how accredited testing actually runs, and practical technique myths, so you can pass tests, pick the right training path, and build a career you're proud of.Key Topics CoveredApprenticeship that pays: Why Welder Underground hires 18–28-year-olds at $15/hr to learn and how “show up on time + bring enthusiasm” beats prerequisites.Realities of training: Traditional school vs. modern apprenticeship; teaching through a live 18-ft sculpture build bound for Paris.“Teach for the job”: Why MIG dominates entry-level work and how to prepare for it without ditching stick/TIG fundamentals.Test day without panic: What hold points are, why skipping one is an automatic fail, and how an ATF routes your test.Certificate vs. certification: What actually counts in industry and the paperwork/logistics behind true certs.Technique myths with evidence: Push vs. drag (short-circuit vs. spray), polarity (DC+ vs. DC−) explained in plain language.Flux-core with shielding gas: Why it can look good yet break brittle—what's happening in the flux chemistry.Inspection mindset: Basing welds on data and repeatability “10 times out of 10,” not opinions.Career ladders: From welder to CWI/SCWI, plus where NDT and phased-array UT fit.Social media as a help line: Getting accurate guidance vs. filtered hype; how to vet advice.Save 20% On Related American Welding Program Courses With WELD20Use code WELD20 at checkout for eligible courses - https://foxly.link/9T3dtcGuests' Content & ContactMarc LevinFull EP - https://spotifycreators-web.app.link/e/b9USCroNxYb Instagram - @welderundergound https://www.instagram.com/welderunderground/ Nate BowmanFull EP - https://spotifycreators-web.app.link/e/Fm1dGXvNxYb Instagram -  @weldscientist https://www.instagram.com/weldscientist/ Jason BeckerFull EP - https://spotifycreators-web.app.link/e/YZs86gBNxYb ​Instagram: @arcjunkiespodcast https://www.instagram.com/arcjunkiespodcast/ Adam StreichFull EP - https://spotifycreators-web.app.link/e/SjMHDYGNxYb Instagram - @akstreich https://www.instagram.com/akstreich/ Justin MixonFull EP - https://spotifycreators-web.app.link/e/VEG22HKNxYb Instagram - @thatclassy_diver https://www.instagram.com/thatclassy_diver/ Austin HargettFull EP - https://spotifycreators-web.app.link/e/UCaeIVQNxYb Instagram - @dr.weldz https://www.instagram.com/dr.weldz/ Connect with Beau WigingtonInstagram: @beaudiditwelding — https://www.instagram.com/beaudiditwelding LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/beauwigington E-mail: beauw@weld.com

Brianna Beans fell off a ladder on a home inspection... and it rocked her career. In fact, it inspired a complete overhaul of her business model and a pivot from home inspections... to rental property inspections.

Urban wildfires are rewriting the rules of home insurance, and the details matter more than ever. We sit down with Brittany Martin, Personal Lines Team Leader for CRC's Western Region, to break down the construction features, spacing standards, and modeling tools that are redefining eligibility in California, Colorado, and beyond. From tempered glass and enclosed eaves to ember-resistant vents and Class A roofs, we get specific about what moves the needle with underwriters, and what can push a well-appointed home straight into the E&S market.The conversation turns practical as we map a smart sequence of upgrades during renovations, helping clients elevate materials before renewal crunch time and signal stronger risk control to carriers. We also explore how carriers combine third-party data, AI, and wildfire modeling to evaluate homes at a parcel level. That precision opens doors for case-by-case underwriting even in tough counties with shrinking capacity. Agents will leave with actionable takeaways that can shift accounts from declines to competitive terms.Subscribe for more retail agent insights, share this episode with your team, and leave a review with the wildfire upgrade that delivered the biggest underwriting win for your clients.

It's time for another Mind Gap Podcast! This week, Doug and Justin decide which everyday inconvenience they would turn into a supervillain origin story. Is it trying to find the end of a roll of tape? Traffic jams? Spotty Wi-Fi?! BARBER SHOP RULES?! You'll just have to listen to find out. However, once the dorks finally feel satisfied in their answers, they move onto the main topic of the night: Which villain lairs would pass an OSHA inspection? Seriously, this is important stuff. Among the lairs they review are Bowser's Castle, the Death Star, and Mr. Freeze's headquarters. Perilous indeed.   Things are wrapped up with another round of "How Many Actors To Guess The Movie?" where Doug lists off actors from a movie and Justin has to try and guess the movie in as few actors as possible.   Check out our YouTube channel where we livestream our new podcast episodes every Tuesday at 8pmCT and our video game stream every Saturday at 8pmCT.

Send us a textThe floor in Phoenix was packed, and so were the ideas. We sat down with innovators across the stack—equipment makers, metrology experts, logistics strategists, and software leaders—to map the real state of advanced packaging and what it takes to build, measure, move, and power tomorrow's chips.EV Group kicked things off with a candid look at die-to-wafer realities: activation on film frame, then 100% overlay metrology that measures tens of thousands of points per hour so every die and corner is verified. They also unveiled LithoScale XT, a fully digital, maskless lithography system printing 300 mm at 60 wph—perfect for massive AI dies and fast design turns. Lab14 widened the frame with a portfolio approach: direct-write lithography, single-wafer processing, data prep, and analysis tools working as a coordinated line, with data sharing and AI feedback baked in.Resilience and regionalization came to life through Kuehne+Nagel's on-the-ground view: supplier clustering near fabs, cross-border trucking, time-critical services, and 4PL integration that gives real-time visibility and smarter capacity planning. ERS showed where throughput meets cost: photothermal debonding with lower stress and reusable glass carriers, demo centers in Taiwan (and planned in North America), plus surge demand for warpage repair as volumes rise.Process control is moving into packaging with front-end rigor. Nova detailed metrology for hybrid bonding, chemistry monitoring of plating baths, X-ray and XPS/SIMS material insights, and the handling know-how to measure framed wafers and panels reliably. Nordson Test & Inspection highlighted AI-driven inspection, ultra-fast acoustic scanning, automated X-ray metrology, and sensor wafers that cut tool downtime and sharpen process windows. Comet showcased its CT and CA20 upgrades for 3D IC and TSV analysis.Power dominated the later conversations. Siemens argued we need to design for energy from the chip through the blade, rack, and data center, simulating real workloads and cooling to slash gigawatts—then extend that thinking into the fab, where optimizing chillers and facilities already saves serious money. Onto Innovation brought it home with execution: the PACE Center now hosts partners' tools, accelerating experiments for glass, TGV, and panel processes without waiting on public funds.If you care about hybrid bonding, maskless lithography, CT for 3D ICs, panel-scale packaging, or cutting AI's energy bill, this one is dense with takeaways and hard truths. Subscribe, share with a colleague who lives in the fab or data center, and leave a review telling us which insight you'll act on first.Support the show

Buying an RV is a big deal, and if you're not looking closely, you could end up with a lot more than you bargained for. In this episode, PJ sits down with Mike from Cozy Camper, a former police officer who now inspects RVs full-time across Texas. He talks about what he finds during inspections, why even brand-new rigs often need a second look, and how buyers can avoid surprises down the road. Mike shares stories from real inspections, from fresh-off-the-lot RVs with hidden issues to used units that looked great in photos but had major problems underneath. He explains how inspections can help buyers negotiate or walk away, and why he and his wife, Elizabeth, have built a business around helping people feel confident in their RV purchase. If you're shopping for an RV or just curious about how much goes into owning one, you'll find practical advice and real-world experience in this conversation. Mike also talks about what it's like living full-time in an RV while running a business, and what keeps him passionate about helping others hit the road with confidence.
