Keeping Agile without in-house CAD capability
Yep, not easy. For many startups and small businesses, setting up a full-scale design department isn’t feasible or economical right off the bat.
Perhaps, in time, the cost justification becomes easier – especially if the demand for design, research and development becomes more constant within the business. But initially, when the need is limited and ad-hoc, relying on external CAD services is not only the best way forward, it’s essential.
You need to innovate quickly. Maybe customise products for your customers. Expand an equipment range or perhaps this is a strategic move to IP asset ownership. Either way – it’s about gaining competitive advantage.
What you need is a reliable, friendly and professional one-stop shop to develop, rapidly prototype, test and design iterate. And one you can trust. This is where A4 Plus steps in.
Not only do we offer comprehensive CAD services, but we also manage all the data associated with your designs, including PDM (Product Data Management).
What does this mean? It means that we’ll take care of making sure that only the latest designs are used for manufacture, preventing costly re-work and lost time if the wrong parts are made. It means we can reduce the design and development time so that manufacture and product release to market is swift and timely.
And we do all of this at a fraction of the fees charged by the big design agencies. Which means that you can focus on growing your business and leapfrog to the selling stage with confidence while we safeguard your design data and handle the technical complexities.
Think of us as your cost effective, behind-the-scenes, design powerhouse – ready whenever you need us.
