First Products Debuts FirstFit™ Framework at VIVE & HIMSS 2026

Live CoDesignLive™ engineering sessions showcase collaborative design process

Lockport, NY – 10-17-2025 – First Products, a leading manufacturer of custom mobile medical carts and technology mounts with over 30 years of healthcare industry experience, will exhibit at VIVE 2026 and HIMSS 2026, unveiling the FirstFit™ Framework—a proprietary four-stage collaborative methodology that transforms how healthcare organizations deploy technology solutions.

Introducing the FirstFit™ Framework

The FirstFit™ Framework represents a fundamental shift from transactional product sales to strategic partnership. Built on the principle of "The perfect fit. Built for you. With you," the framework guides healthcare organizations through four distinct stages:

1. DISCOVER – Understanding needs and defining the perfect fit through environmental analysis, workflow mapping, and technology audits

2. DESIGN – Co-creating solutions through CoDesignLive™ sessions, where clients collaborate with First Products engineers in real-time design consultations

3. DEVELOP – Transforming concepts into reality through U.S.-based ISO-certified manufacturing, rapid prototyping, and iterative refinement

4. DEPLOY – Delivering seamless implementation with professional installation, technology integration, staff training, and scalable long-term partnership

Experience CoDesignLive™ at the Show

At both VIVE and HIMSS 2026, First Products will feature CoDesignLive™ Studio—interactive 15-minute engineering sessions where attendees can watch real healthcare deployment challenges solved in real-time. Participants will collaborate with First Products engineers to design custom mobile medical carts and technology mounts tailored to specific clinical workflows, device requirements, and healthcare environments.

"For 30 years, we've been building custom solutions for healthcare IT leaders, medical device manufacturers, and software providers," said Paul Smith, CEO. "The FirstFit Framework formalizes our collaborative approach and makes it transparent. CoDesignLive sessions show exactly how we work—no sales pitch, just real engineering problem-solving."

Who Should Attend

The FirstFit Framework is designed for:

• Healthcare CIOs and IT Directors seeking reliable mobile workstation and technology deployment solutions that boost efficiency and demonstrate ROI
• Medical Device Manufacturers looking for OEM cart and mount partners who meet exact specifications and protect their brand reputation
• Healthcare Integrators needing shorter lead times and simplified deployments that elevate their deliverables
• Clinical Operations and Administrative Leaders supporting traditional workflows while preparing for digital transformation

Booth Experience: Four Zones, One Framework

Both VIVE and HIMSS booths will feature four distinct experiential zones representing each stage of the FirstFit Framework, allowing attendees to explore the complete process from initial discovery through final deployment. The CoDesignLive Studio will anchor the DESIGN zone, with sessions running throughout each show day.
