Decades of experience have proven these are the most important considerations for creating an impactful product.
Prior to any design activities, LINK works with you to understand the market and your businesses ability to fullfill the wants and needs of your customer. Having consulted over 100 companies, we understand the entirety of what it takes to be successful, both from a product standpoint as well as a sustainable business. This includes evaluating your team, your company's strengths and weaknesses, your competition, and creating a complete product development roadmap for the future. We often work with companies for years as their products and market evolves, building a lasting brand together.
Is this the right product for the right people at the right time? Only through design research, human-centered planning, and interviewing the actual target market is the product going to be appropriate and sucessful. LINK carefully performs this research, and through user testing, iterates concpt ideas until the right design is discovered.
By the way of careful planning and considering the product's entire life cycle, we can help you lessen the environmental impact on our planet while maximizing margins. Selecting the right materials and manufacturing processes will reduce your company's carbon footprint and offer your customers a more sustainable choice. LINK can also manage your suppliers by consciously choosing the right partners and holding them accountable to your sustainablity goals.
'Fail often and fail early' is a good strategy for efficient product development, and without prototyping and user feedback this is impossible. With various machines and tools at our disposal we are able to create accurate and functional prototypes of the design. These prototypes can illuminate necessary design and engineering modifications and improvements before moving to full production.
Sourcing the manufacturing of a product can be extremely challenging but over the past decade we have built relationships with multiple production vendors both international and domestic. We offer full production support and help with every stage in the manufacturing process.
