Any new product will contain an amount of progress. The best results are achieved by providing us with as much notice as possible of your design goals and plans. At the outset of a new range or product group there are opportunities to make cost free or minimal cost options for future features. These give you the benefit of being able to launch with a product and release improvements as your competitors try to catch up.
The benefit to us of being brought into your plans at an early stage is novelty. Given time (for which we do not charge) to just think about your aspirations, it is quite common for us to come up with a novel approach that places you in a strong position in your market.
Given the original nature of the design work carried out at Hawkshead, we are well placed to carry out work in "uncharted territory". This means that you can explore some new technology or process, prior to committing to a full design incorporating an element of technical risk.
We have worked on research based equipment in the past. We are currently engaged in a project of our own that falls into this category. Research and feasibility is primarily about minimising risk and long term cost. The benefit is further advance over other products or companies and may create a technical prowess that empowers your sales team and bottom line profit.
