Complex Problems
At our core, we’re here to deliver solutions. Problem-solving is our passion, and we love working collaboratively to tackle challenges and share our expertise to create impactful results across all industries and scales.
-
Holistic Approach
Our approach begins by taking the time to understand all of your needs. By asking the right questions and exploring every angle, we provide thoughtful advice and support to achieve the best possible outcome at every stage of your project.
-
Highly Detailed
With over a decade of experience in Formula 1, attention to detail is our speciality. We bring this same precision and rigour to every project, confident that the F1 mindset drives excellence in any industry and achieves exceptional results.
-
Intricate Packaging
We’re at home working with highly complex assemblies, often navigating tricky layouts with tenths-of-a-millimetre precision. Through careful analysis and testing, we identify and prevent clashes, chafing and build issues before they arise.
-
In-house 3D Printing
Our in-house 3D printing enables us to prototype at speed, often iterating multiple times in one day. A variety of materials are available and we can also leverage our trusted network to outsource alternatives when specific material properties are required.
-
Testing and Validation
Knowing your product is fit for purpose is crucial. We define tests based on typical use cases and analyse further to uncover any potential anomalies. Test procedures are created and executed using bespoke test rigs to ensure all requirements and functions are met.
-
New Product Development
From a simple idea or thought process we develop initial sketches and quickly progress to a first prototype. We embrace fast, cost-effective methodologies and continuous iteration, allowing dynamic improvements without fear of failure.
-
Design for Manufacture (DFM) Guidance
We provide practical advice on manufacturing complex parts and optimising existing ones. We can recommend alternative processes or methods to improve speed, reduce cost, remove waste, or meet specific design requirements.
-
Design Engineering
Working seamlessly in CAD is second nature to us. It allows us to visualise concepts, explore ideas, refine details, and develop complex designs and assemblies with precision and efficiency - ready to be applied seamlessly in real-world applications.
-
Innovation
We approach from every angle and bring a track record of creativity and ideas generation. We focus on evolution by applying and considering proven methods, or disruption to deliver breakthroughs. Exploring new directions enables significant value to be added.
-
Reliability
In Formula 1, reliability is the hidden winner - it’s vital to any success. Our first-hand experience with the most critical areas of the race car, combined with utilising failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), allows us to identify and address any potential issues as early as possible.
-
Reverse Engineering
With our in-house tools, we can reverse engineer any component into a CAD model. This enables the manufacture of new parts, handed components, modification to increase performance or remove existing issues, and to address design issues present from new.
-
Requirements and Specification
Understanding the difference between requirements and specification is key. We provide a thorough analytical process to fully identify and pick apart what’s essential, and what’s a nice to have - ensuring clarity and focus from the start.
-
Sustainability
We integrate sustainability into every stage of our process. We consider material choices, efficient manufacturing methods, and long-term performance to deliver solutions that minimise environmental impact, while maintaining quality and functionality.
-
Strategy
We work closely with you to develop strategies that deliver strong results. By understanding your goals, assessing risks, and identifying opportunities, we create a clear direction that achieves the best possible outcome - fully aligned with your vision.
