We are a group of senior consultants that work together to design your product from the ground up. Each person on this team has 10 to 20 years of experience in mechanical and electrical design. Our IT consultant has >25 years. In a sentence, the experience allows us to do more for less by charting a course that will lead to product/device/platform success quickly. We save you time and money in the long run by doing it right the first time. Having worked together on several large projects we have the wrinkles ironed out and we have a thorough and honest understanding of our abilities. We routinely make personal investments in the companies we work with and bring in other investors as well. In a sentence, we become part of your team and look to add value at every turn.

We are routinely asked to develop one-off prototypes that people can use for fundraising, show and tell or tradeshows. A mixture of casting, machining, metal fabrication, 3D printing and even woodworking has been used in the past.

We do much of the prototyping that our clients need in-house. This includes proof-of-concept development and short production up to about 200 assembled units depending on the complexity and number of parts. We have built several close working relationships that help with machining, metal fabrication, assembly, test and assembly above the volumes we take on. Our work often includes putting together inspection documents and assembly guidelines and we work closely with our partners to ensure quality. The process of putting together these documents is oddly satisfying as you're pushed to go back and think through every tiny little step for assembly.

It really depends on where the concept is in terms of development when it lands on our desk. If a prototype is needed as a first step to test viability of a go/no-go feature, then this is where we start. The steps in the process above are meant as a guide only. In reality, the process is fluid and we fit it to your needs. 

Unfortunately, we can't help you with any of these items. It’s just not where our experience lies or where we have fun!
