Companies plan for a project to take X amount of time and cost Y amount of money. However, unforeseen issues often arise, requiring more time and money to x. The key to successfully reducing costs, containing development time and minimizing failures is to do all the homework up front.

and schedule can result from mapping the critical path and reducing trial and error product development. Savings that result from following the SES physics-based approach pay for the process.
Using cost modeling, we help clients understand and take advantage of economies of scale as well as understand the right price to pay suppliers for materials and components. You should know more about these costs than your supplier. We have techniques to quickly evaluate product performance relative to product requirements. The end result is a right-sized package. The bottom line is that you need to know where the cost savings are hidden in order to take advantage of them.
Successful products are characterized by eye-catching design, functional performance, problem-free manufacturability and predictable cost. The SES approach brings together art and science by considering product design as an integral part of the engineering process. By combining industrial design expertise with proven technical and analytical capabilities early in the development process SES delivers superior solutions that are both innovative and actionable. The earlier in the development process a problem is identied, the less costly it will be to resolve. Once a product reaches production, the cost of resolving design and engineering problems increases dramatically. Much of SES business is built around helping customers avoid these costly mistakes and changes. Our long history and expertise in failure remediation is especially valuable to clients developing non-core products/ packages, because we can help get a new, high-quality product/package to market faster. Signicant reductions in cost
