ENGINEERING DESIGN CONSULTANCY SERVICES 

Based in East Kent, we’re a team of passionate, diversely experienced design engineers, providing engineering and CAD design services to our clients, primarily utilising SolidWorks software and similar mainstream CAD systems. We assist our clients through the entire process of getting their concepts ready to market, from full product design and development to simply supplementing their own in-house design departments. We believe that long term partnerships are the key to the success for a Product Design consultancy in order to provide better continuity through product knowledge. We would relish the opportunity to assist you all the way through the Product development journey.

Working with you, rather than for you – We appreciate that individual client’s may have have very different requirements from their Engineering Design Consultant and we always try to adapt our services to best work for our client and their own team and development project.

Being an external, organisation, it is often easier for us to bring new ideas to the table than it may be internal resources. Whilst we may not necessarily be aware of all the restrictions that may exist, or indeed any historical development paths that may have been pursued, a fresh approach can sometimes breathe new life into both the product design itself and also into existing internal design resource. From our perspective, this is one of the many benefits of working with a dedicated product design and development company, such as our own.

We believe that the best design work is achieved through a collaborative process and rarely comes from the mind of just one person. In our many years of experience in the industry, we have found that a client’s specific expertise and knowledge of their own field combines well with the fresh, outside approach provided by our design consultancy team.

Our design engineers pride themselves on their adaptability – we can work in tandem with in-house design departments of larger organisations, or as a dedicated design team for smaller organisations. All client’s have differing requirements and present their own specific challenges – challenges which we relish taking on. In some instances, we simply provide a periodic, load-bearing addition to a client’s in-house design team to help manage workflow. For others, the process is more involved and longer-term, and sees us taking on a project that starts as just an idea in a client’s head, all the way through the various phases to eventual volume production.

Working with external Electronic and Software development partners, we are able to provide a fully integrated electro-mechanical design service which has further diversified the type of work we are able to embark upon.

Our Product design engineers have worked in a diverse range of sectors including Pharmaceutical, Medical and Defence through to automation, transportation and structural landscaping products, all involving a variety of manufacturing techniques and design disciplines. All of our engineers are experienced in adapting to diverse customer requirements as we are well aware that no single approach will ever suit every individual organisation.

We aim to establish long term relationships with our clients, as we fully appreciate the importance of maintaining continuity throughout the design process. We have been very fortunate over the years in being able to retain many long term clients, indeed we are still working with companies and individuals that we teamed up with when we started the company back in 2003.
