Product Design and Prototyping
Are you a small manufacturer that has a new product idea, but lack the resources to design and prototype in-house?
There are many steps that go into designing a new product. Georgia Tech has the experience to help you turn your ideas into a prototype and create the specification package necessary to manufacture your product and bring it to market.
Approach
Georgia Tech will meet with you to assess your development resources and understand the product that you want to produce. Utilizing secondary research, we will help determine if there is a market before spending your valuable time and money on design and prototyping. If there is a viable market, we will assist your company with the prototype design, including specifications. Once the prototype is complete, if you decide to bring the product to market, we can help your company:
- Assess its manufacturing capabilities or recommend external manufacturers, if needed
- Identify any development gaps in bringing the product to market
- Transition from the prototype state to manufacturing readiness
- Identify any equipment or process needs to produce the product
Benefits
Upon completion, your company will:
- Bring a new product to market faster
- Reduce cycle time of development and time to manufacture
- Increase profitability
- Learn how to benchmark against best practices
- Learn to prioritize future product ideas based on defined criteria
