1. A method, comprising:
prompting, by a graphical user interface presented on a display device of a computing system, a surgeon for a plurality of adaptive tibial guide parameters collectively indicative of a physical structure of a surgeon-specific tibial cutting guide and a plurality of adaptive femoral guide parameters collectively indicative of a physical structure of a surgeon-specific femoral cutting guide for a surgical procedure on a patient;
receiving, via the graphical user interface of the computing system, surgeon input from the surgeon associated with the plurality of adaptive tibial guide parameters and the plurality of adaptive femoral guide parameters; and
transmitting, via a communication circuitry of the computing system, the received surgeon input to an instrumentation manufacturing system for manufacturing of at least one of the surgeon-specific tibial cutting guide and the surgeon-specific femoral cutting guide.
