Engineering work where behaviour, scale, and constraints matter

We support industrial teams in moving from experimental concepts to operable, manufacturable systems, with a focus on validation, redesign, and risk reduction.

Typical engagements include technical assessments, cost-down redesigns, engineered budget estimates, pilot systems, productisation work, and early industrial scale-up.

On-site engineering assessment

Focused, on-site assessment of existing production systems through observation and technical analysis.

Used to:

  • identify bottlenecks, constraints, and failure modes

  • understand system behaviour under real operating conditions

  • inform targeted redesigns, cost-down measures, or follow-up engineering work

The outcome is a clear, technically grounded view of where intervention will have the most impact.

    1. manufacturable design packages

    2. supplier and fabrication input

    3. support during build and integration

Engineered budget estimate

    1. structured technical assessment

    2. identified risks, assumptions, and decision points

    3. clear recommendations for redesign or next steps

A technically grounded cost and effort estimate for systems that do not yet fully exist.

Used when:

  • moving from lab or pilot work toward investment or scale-up decisions

  • validating whether a concept can be built, installed, and operated within realistic constraints

  • comparing alternative architectures or development paths

Estimates are based on engineering structure, not extrapolation.

Design and development of pilot and early industrial systems where behaviour, not performance, is the primary unknown.

The focus is on:

  • translating experimental setups into engineerable system architectures

  • validating stability, controllability, and repeatability under representative conditions

  • designing for access, maintenance, and failure recovery

  • integrating safety, CE, PED, and ATEX constraints early

Systems are specified to a level suitable for fabrication and installation, with manufacturing and assembly constraints considered as part of the engineering work.

Support for sourcing, fabrication, and assembly of pilot and early industrial systems through an established industrial network.

This includes:

  • identifying and engaging suitable suppliers and fabricators

  • supporting prototype and low-volume manufacturing

  • managing build-time constraints and practical integration issues

  • ensuring feedback from fabrication informs ongoing design work

Manufacturing support runs in parallel with engineering, exposing design decisions to real industrial constraints before scale-up commitments are made.

This work often supports the transition from bespoke systems to repeatable designs suitable for series production.

    1. pilot or pre-industrial system designs

    2. validation and test strategy

    3. documentation suitable for fabrication and operation

    1. system breakdown and scope definition

    2. budget ranges with technical drivers and uncertainties

    3. assumptions and boundary conditions made explicit
