Bringing Your Product to Life Can Cost More than It’s Worth
If you’re not thinking strategically, bringing your product to market can be prohibitively expensive.
Large-scale production problems are often difficult to spot early on in the design phase.
Using multiple manufacturers for different stages (e.g., prototyping and production) can lead to details getting lost in translation.
And without the right production partner, ineffective communication and poor project management can quickly drain your budget faster than you can readjust your plans.
Added to that, it can be hard to find a manufacturer with both production flexibility (e.g., substantial order minimums) and high standards for quality and intellectual property protection.
In the end, a financially viable product can end up costing more time, more money, and more hassle than it’s worth.
That’s where RP Group comes in.

Streamlined Design Means
Lower Costs
According to General Motors executives, 70% of the cost of manufacturing truck transmissions is determined in the design stage.
Another study from Rolls-Royce revealed that design determines 80% of the final production costs of 2,000 components.
It’s clear, then, that nailing the design early on in the production process can lead to massive time savings and cost reductions.
At RP Group, we offer our clients the ability to spot manufacturing issues earlier in the prototyping phase. As a result, we are in a unique position to save our clients time, money, and hassle further down in their production process.
