Ourprocess.

Tell us about your product idea, what it does, where it'll be used, and what you need. We give you honest technical feedback and outline what the rest of the journey looks like, end to end.

• Honest technical feedback on your idea
• A plan for how we'll prototype your product
• What to expect from testing
• What compliance looks like for your product
• Your volume targets and manufacturing needs
• Ballpark investment and unit cost ranges

A short, scoped engagement to de-risk the project before detailed design begins. We translate your customer requirements (what the product needs to do, who it's for, where it'll be used) into a technical specification (architecture, key components, compliance path).

• System architecture and concept designs for your product
• Early prototypes to prove out risky assumptions
• A test plan with clear pass/fail criteria
• A list of standards your product must meet
• A shortlist of suitable suppliers
• Refined R&D budget and preliminary parts cost

This is where the bulk of the work happens. Our hardware, firmware, and mechanical teams work in parallel, building working prototypes through 2 to 4 PCB revisions, with you reviewing and signing off at every stage.

• Working prototypes, typically 2 to 4 PCB revisions
• Hardware, firmware, and full system tested end-to-end
• Design built to pass compliance
• Design optimised for manufacturing and test
• Compliance costs and estimated unit price

A pre-production prototype goes through rigorous testing and into formal certification. EMC pre-scans, reliability tests, field trials, and benchmarks run in parallel with formal compliance testing and certification submissions.

• Design refined and fully documented
• Pre-production prototype built and validated
• EMC pre-scans, reliability tests, field trials, and benchmarks
• Formal compliance testing and certifications submitted
• Supplier selected and manufacturing quotes in hand
• Updated unit and tooling costs

Design locked down and ready for volume. We design test rigs and tooling, run a pilot manufacturing batch, and validate the production line (PVT) so the first volume run goes smoothly.

• Design locked down; test rigs and tooling designed
• Production samples and pilot manufacturing run
• Production line tested and validated (PVT)
• Tooling, assembly, and test procedures locked in
• Product labelling and markings sorted
• Final unit and tooling costs

Volume manufacturing underway. We provide engineering support through production, sign off the first production unit, and run ongoing quality checks. Manufacturer compliance support if needed.

• Engineering support through production
• First production unit inspected and signed off
• Volume manufacturing underway
• Ongoing quality checks
• Manufacturer compliance support if needed
• Unit cost reduction where possible

We stay engaged for as long as you need us. Product updates, revision prototypes, field performance monitoring, ongoing compliance, and supply chain management keep your product running and improving.

• Product updates and improvements
• Revision prototypes
• Field performance monitoring
• Ongoing compliance updates
• Supply chain management
• Parts cost reviews and cost reduction
