Real engagements demonstrating what thorough technical consulting can deliver.
An investment firm needed to establish that their portfolio company — not the customer — owned the intellectual property in a jointly-developed product. The data set included terabytes of corporate archives spanning multiple years. The work evolved from data analysis into a court-filed expert report for a federal IP case.
What we did:
Expert report accepted by the court. This scope of work would typically require a team of analysts working several months.
A CNC equipment manufacturer needed a complete redesign of their machine controller. The existing design — built around two processors and 29 optoisolators — was expensive to manufacture, difficult to maintain, and couldn’t support the wireless control or expandability the company wanted. Working closely with the client’s lead engineer, the engagement spanned seven years: from initial research and prototyping through multiple PCB revisions, firmware development, and production documentation for volumes of 5,000–10,000 units per year.
What we did:
Helped deliver a production-ready controller platform that replaced the legacy hardware with a modern, wireless-capable design supporting a full accessory ecosystem — work spanning component research, schematic capture, PCB layout, firmware, power supply testing, and manufacturing documentation.
Deep technical expertise and rigorous methodology, delivering thorough results efficiently.
