Consumer hardware lives and dies on launch execution: the bill of materials, the assembly partner, and the inventory the channel carries when the reviews land. We work all three, with cost engineering led by people who have negotiated with tier-one EMS providers.
Recent engagements cover component standardization across a product family, a two-region manufacturing footprint, and the working-capital cost of a launch that slips one quarter.
