Structured Flexibility

A comprehensive suite of product development services tailored to drive innovation and efficiency. Our expertise spans from establishing collaborative frameworks and defining future product visions, to advising on how the business can best structure itself to meet its future ambitions, and providing interim leadership during critical phases.

Quality Management

Guardians of Excellence

Building Continuous Improvement loops into Business Culture.

‘Total Quality Management’ is the foundation for Customer Quality, Product Quality and Supplier Quality; with each holding respective responsibility. We focus on reducing waste-related costs and building mechanisms that filter Customer/Market feedback into future Product cycles & strategic decisions.

Service and Repair

An Inevitable Problem. An easy solution.

A significant threat to modern companies with a Hardware product, and a fantastic opportunity.

The word is ‘sustainable’: and Global ‘Right to repaiur’ legislation is driving towards it. Leading this on behalf of organisations in the past, what appears complex and difficult can be resolved quickly and simply with the right infastructure. We will ensure your company meets the legal minimums for any market of operation, and build an onward strategy that marries with Brand vision and customer expectations.

Manufacturing Expertise

Continuous Innovation in Supply Chain

15 years experience managing manufacturing partners across a range of disciplines and production processes.

Finding and collaborating well with strong manufacturing partners is critical to the success of any hardware product. From sourcing, through bring-up and into a sustained production; we have all the tools necessary to ensure your company has the right partners, and can get the absolute best from them.

Extended Network

A Wealth of Extended Capability

“It’s not who you are that holds you back, it's who you think you’re not” - Jean Michel Basqiat

With a fortuitous understanding of our own capability, we understand the gap that could leave to fully support our clients needs. We work with a number of partners to cover these topics, from Compliance specialism through to Marketing agencies and Venture Capitalists, we are confident in our ability to support any need through our existing network.

Or, a more simple solution

The business ‘scan’ provides a comprehensive overview of where to focus attention for the greatest benefit

Focussed on Tools, Processes and People we evaluate performance and identify opportunities.

Through a series of interviews and reviews we will assess the fundamental requirements for a business to operate a successful hardware division. This is then compared and contrasted to the brand and longer-term strategy of the business, in order to provide an objective and prioritised list of recommendations.
