Computer Aided Design (CAD)
IDEA has access to the most advanced CAD software/hardware, and offers its clients accelerated development, timelines and a minimized time to market. The use of solid modeling systems enables highly accurate parametric data, allowing verification of structural configuration and analysis, minimizing material volume and tolerance/fit checks prior to production.

Manufacturing Assessment
IDEA’s manufacturing team puts your idea through various manufacturing process analysis to find the most advanced cost saving techniques to manufacture your product to ensure the highest profit margins. It is imperative to find optimum materials and processes to help all manufacturers see indisputable profit margins and higher royalties for you.

Prototyping
IDEA recommends utilizing prototyping (pattern making etc.) as a segment of the development process. This involves an overall evaluation of a product's function, form and user-interface. Crafted prototypes precisely emulate the overall product production, allowing confirmation of design and engineering principles. This achieved awareness allows IDEA to respond with intelligent, informed and targeted development programs emanating from top-level strategies.

Manufacturing
IDEA has thousands of ISO 9001 approved manufacturers in our database. Should you decide to manufacture the product we have the ability to oversee all tooling, optimized production details and first article production, which ensures your success and therefore ours.
