| How can a product development consulting company help me? Why should I hire Art-2-Part instead of other product design companies? The answer to this question depends on what you need. There are many ways in which Art-2-Part is different than other outside firms. Here are just a few: Borrowing and twisting a saying heard time and again from the real estate market - Innovation, Innovation, Innovation (rather than location, location, location for you renters out there). Art-2-Part brings fresh yet experienced eyes to your endeavors. Out-of-the-box thinking coupled with creative application of experiences from past lives leads to innovative yet manufacturable product designs. We have the ability to design and synthesize mechanical, electrical, firmware, and software subsystems into "smart" products. Most projects in today's world benefit if not rely upon this ability. End users aren't interested in even great piece parts, they want a complete product solution that works right out of the box the first time. Art-2-Part's Project/Program Managers have experience in delivering products to markets as varied as computer peripherals to telecom to building products to fluid handling to medical. They have worked at both startups and billion dollar organizations. They have the experience it takes to grow intellectual property portfolios, raise VC money, establish new business markets, generate quick product revenues, and even IPO. When you hire Art-2-Part, you're hiring a "remote engineering staff" for your project. Everyone on staff has spent the better part of their careers working as part of a geographically dispersed design team. They know when to interface and how to interface and have all the latest tools to do so at their disposal such as net meetings, interactive whiteboards, video conferencing, and of course the ability to travel to your site. Furthermore, have you had bad experiences with consultants or companies who are just plain sloppy? Art-2-Part adheres to the professional practices of an engineering company. Systems are in place for revising your work, keeping record of it, and supplying you with complete documentation when you need it. How much does it cost to hire Art-2-Part? I'm interested in working with Art-2-Part. How does this work? My project involves sensitive information. Can I be assured this information will remain confidential if I work with Art-2-Part? Can I keep Art-2-Part's role in my project confidential? If I hire Art-2-Part, who owns the work that results? |
