AME Testing Framework

At AME, we apply a rigorous testing framework to ensure medical equipment meets the highest standards of safety, durability, usability, and compliance. Our structured evaluation process examines key factors such as maintenance needs, operational efficiency, regulatory compliance, and cost-effectiveness, ensuring that every device is reliable, adaptable, and suited for its intended healthcare setting. Through transparent testing criteria, we empower decision-makers to select medical equipment that is clinically safe, locally sustainable, and built to last.

Maintenance
