Highly Specialized Surgical Robotics Services

Speed, Clarity, and Collaboration That Delivers

Speed with Confidence

We accelerate your timelines while reducing the risk of costly rework. Our staged, iterative approach delivers meaningful progress and actionable insight at every phase, from early architecture to pilot manufacture.

Flexibility Built In

Whether you need end-to-end support or targeted expertise, we adapt to your needs. From one-off sprint projects to full development programs, our collaborative model makes it easy to plug us in where and when we can add value.

Your IP. Your Success.

We don’t just work for you, we work with you. All IP and knowledge stays with you. We augment and empower your team, enhance your internal capabilities, and ensure seamless knowledge transfer at every stage.

Proven, Reliable Acceleration

Since 2019, we’ve developed multiple robotic surgery platforms, each reaching alpha prototype stage in under a year, to support pre-clinical trials and secure internal buy-in. That speed is no accident: it’s the result of having the right capabilities, capacity, and culture, all coordinated, all ready when needed.

Clarity Through Complexity

We bring clarity and structure to complex systems through requirements definition tailored to the current development stage, stakeholder alignment, and a multidisciplinary, systems-engineering mindset, ensuring focus, direction, and real momentum.

How We Help You Accelerate

Integrated Surgical Robotics Expertise

Our cross-functional teams have delivered multiple complete Surgical Robotics systems since 2019, demonstrating speed, precision, and adaptability.

Pilot Manufacturing & Transfer

With our in-house 26,000 sq ft Pilot Production Centre, we enable early process development and smooth transition to manufacture.

Design Through Clinical Insight

Our integrated human factors team ensures that clinical insight is embedded early and continuously through all product development phases.

Built for Regulatory Success

We design to territory-specific medical device standards from day one, including IEC 60601-1 and others, supporting MDR submissions with zero major findings across project maturities.

Strategic US and UK Presence to Accelerate Innovation

Our UK and US offices position CDP to provide capability on-demand and facilitate seamless collaboration across all stages of Surgical Robotics development. These HQ locations gives us access to world-class technical talent, industry leading R&D partners, and leading clinical institutions, significantly enhancing our ability to deliver fast, scalable, and reliable results.

Our Raleigh North Carolina site supports rapid, high-quality onshoring of manufacturing. Coupled with our in-house 26,000 sq ft Pilot Production Centre at our Cambridge UK site we’re uniquely positioned to help you smoothly transition production stateside, efficiently navigate regulatory complexities, and reducing risks associated with offshoring. This local US capability, and deep regulatory and compliance expertise, ensures faster response times, increased supply-chain resilience, and accelerated time to market.

A Proven Partner to Deliver

End-to-End Thinking

We understand how today’s design decisions affect future manufacturing, regulation, and adoption. We think ahead on a component scale so that you don’t face unnecessary delays or rework later.

Total Capability, Ready to Scale:

Our 200-strong team includes engineers, scientists, designers, and regulatory experts across the UK and US. This breadth allows us to select project-specific teams with the right expertise, right away.

Close Collaboration

We embed seamlessly into your team; accelerating feedback, ensuring transparency, and building shared momentum. This integrated approach makes collaboration effortless and leads to stronger, more aligned outcomes.

Repeat-Proven Performance:

Our track record and presence in the surgical robotics industry speaks for itself. We’ve developed multiple robotic surgery systems, each in under a year, since 2019. This performance, and the trust it builds, means much of our work is from returning clients. They come back because we deliver: on time, to spec, and through collaboration that strengthens their internal capability as well as their product.
