Give the product a workable direction.
Clarify the requirements, develop the design and identify the engineering questions worth testing.
Explore product development
You know your product.
We know what it takes.
Product development, engineering and manufacturing in China. For companies building new products and improving the ones they already make.
Discuss your projectStart with what you haveStart with what
you have.
A drawing. A prototype. A product already in production.
We build on the work that’s already there.
Work through the engineering details.
Review structure, materials, tolerances and assembly against the way the product will be made.
Explore engineering & DFMDecide what needs proving next.
Build on what your prototype has demonstrated. Resolve the engineering and manufacturing gaps before production.
Explore prototype to productionImprove the product you already have.
Revisit the design, materials or production method to address cost, performance or manufacturing difficulties.
Explore product cost reductionMake progress with what’s already running.
Work with your current product, supplier and production records to investigate quality issues or improve execution.

Different challenges call for different expertise.
We connect the work your product needs.
Product Development & Engineering
Shape the product. Resolve the engineering details.
Prototyping & Validation
Test the assumptions before the next commitment.
Manufacturing Network
Make the parts and bring the product together.
Quality
Investigate failures. Verify improvements.
Project & Supply Chain Management
Connect the people, decisions and work.

The starting point.
The work. The result.
Every project runs the same way: we look at what already exists, agree what has to be proven next, and put a decision point in front of you before money is committed to tooling or production.

Quality
The supplier says it’s fixed. How do you check?
How to follow a recurring quality problem from containment and root-cause analysis to a verified corrective action.
Read articleCost reductionBefore comparing prices, understand your product’s cost
Compare manufacturing costs on the same basis, including tooling, assembly, quality losses and the cost of making a change.
Read articleProduction readinessYour prototype works. Is it ready for production?
What to review between a successful prototype and repeatable production: design, tooling, samples and pilot builds.
Read articleBefore we talk.
A few practical answers to help you get started.
Can we start with an existing product or supplier?
Yes. Bring the design, product, supplier information or production records you already have. The work can focus on a specific issue or connect several activities. See how scope and responsibilities are agreed.
What changes between a prototype and production?
A working prototype may still need design-for-manufacturing changes, production materials, tooling, assembly checks and a pilot build to test repeatability. Explore production-readiness decisions.
What should we send to start a discussion?
Describe the product, what you already have and what needs to improve. Mention available drawings, samples, target quantities and known constraints. Start with a short overview; agree how to share confidential files separately. Discuss your product project.
What do you have? What’s next?
Bring your drawings, prototype, product or production challenge. Let’s work out the next step.
