Key R&D services
The key role we play in any R&D project is to guide the design process and verify the integrity of any new product development. This starts with working closely with our clients to gain a deep understanding of what it is they’re trying to achieve and deliver a practical solution that meets their objectives.
Our core R&D services include, but aren’t limited to:
- Conducting initial commercial feasibility studies
- Reverse engineering of existing equipment where the project requires
- Managing the development of technical specifications and Design Mode Effect Analysis (DFMEA) to correctly define all design requirements
- Developing initial design concepts
- Validation of design concepts through manual calculations, design code assessments and numerical simulation
- Managing testing activities
- Developing engineering drawings for production
In addition to the typical R&D services offered, our team are proficient in many different applications of engineering such as Fitness for Service Assessments, Decommissioning and Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) along with general consulting to support the entire process and drive the project forward.
