HOW TO WORK WITH A CONSULTANT

By using a consultant, it is possible to increase the effectiveness of your resources and speed up the process of bringing new products to market without building a large, unwieldy organization. A consultant can help you get a good product in a short time. We have worked out some guidelines that will help insure that you are happy with the results.

1) Have a clearly defined goal _ product _ deliverable.

2) Identify easily measured and verified targets or milestones so that progress can be monitored. This avoids ending up at the end of your budget or time period with no product and gives an indicator that trouble is brewing well before it can cause problems.

3) Frequent and open communication should be maintained between consultant and company. This is best accomplished by having one person in the company responsible for the project and for communicating with the consultant. They should feel free to contact each other about anything at any time. 

4) Treat the company consultant relationship as a partnership. After all, you will be working together to create the new product. 

OUR GUARANTEE TO YOU:

We will give you an estimate of total project cost with mile-stones before accepting any project.

We will honor and assure confidentiality of your ideas, and recognize ownership of any patents and trade secrets involved.

We will inform you honestly of the feasibility of any product idea from an engineering, technological and marketing standpoint. By the same token, we will not accept a project we feel will not be successful. In such a case, we may be able to suggest an alternative product or technology.
