Mechanical, electrical, or electromechanical product and tooling design (ID, DFM, FMEA, PEG). Can include 2D/3D drawing generation, BOM, material selection, and product requirements
One of the advantages of DMC is our pricing. We are a smaller, tightly held firm--with just the right overhead to do the job. Other groups can charge you 3-4 times the price for the exact same service, but you are paying for executive overhead, outsourcing and they are often not nearly as engaged on a personal level.
