Product Development Process

Design

Electronics MVP

From the Proof-of-Concept to creating the Minimum Viable Product, we utilize our knowledge of the component ecosystem to help you keep development costs low and your product market competitive.

At Titoma, our Design for Manufacturing philosophy guides our practice of early-stage component selection and sourcing of cost-effective solutions.

We will work closely alongside your team to connect the functional requirements of your product with the best price-performance components available.

Golden Sample

  • Embedded Solutions on STMicroelectronics STM32 and Microchip PIC32.
  • Wirelessly Connected IoT devices: RFID, Bluetooth (BT/BLE), WiFi, LoRa etc.
  • High Reliability (<0.3% fail rate) Industrial Electronics: UV Curing, RFID access control, Point-of-Sale systems

Titoma’s engineers have been designing and manufacturing electronic products in Asia since 2003. Our engineers work in real-time collaboration with Taiwan’s electronics ecosystem.

Having all possible vendors within an hour drive of our office ensures a level of support that most electronic design firms in the West can only dream of.

Testing and Certification

Os engenheiros da Titoma têm décadas de experiência na fabricação de sistemas eletromecânicos na Ásia. Nossos funcionários internacionais podem falar fluentemente mandarim, inglês e espanhol. A comunicação clara garante que nenhum detalhe seja perdido desde o teste de conceito até o lançamento do produto e que seja fiel às necessidades do cliente.

The rigorous role of engineering is to match good product architectural design with robust functionality.

At Titoma, we have found the quickest and most reliable solutions for our clients through constant interaction with our downstream.

Prototype

Produto Mínimo Viavel

From the Proof-of-Concept to creating the Minimum Viable Product, we utilize our knowledge of the component ecosystem to help you keep development costs low and your product market competitive.

The benefit of working with Titoma is that we have the foresight to plan ahead. Our prototyping is kept completely in-house for rapid iteration and to keep your IP secure.

Amostra Dourada

Getting it right will be what ensures the highest quality and reliability of the final product. To faithfully create the golden sample requires a rigorous battery of tests to be conducted from both the engineering and user side.

We know what it takes to create a perfect golden sample. This pre-production prototype sets the standard to which all mass-produced units will be benchmarked.

Teste E Certificação

We work with our customers to conduct solid field testing, by real users, in the target market. We help obtain all the necessary certifications. Preventing administrative hiccups along the way is what will help our clients achieve the fastest time to market.

Manufacture

Manufacturing Management

Since we specialize in small to mid-sized production quantities, our team will retrain the assembly workers with every run to ensure continuous high reliability. We pride ourselves in being able to increase manufacturing quality rather than allowing it to degrade over time.

Titoma provides outstanding manufacturing service for our clients. From assembly to final, we will handle all of the training, quality control, and testing from our vendors.

As our customers vary in order frequency and batch size, we ensure high reliability through continuous manufacturing management.

IP Protection

We implement “fail-safes” into our design, making it extremely difficult to replicate a working model without our consent. Titoma customers can rest assured that we will keep their IP secure when manufacturing in Asia.

We act as IP custodians on behalf of our clients; a role which we take very seriously. We work with trusted manufacturers and always pay a reasonable upfront fee for tooling, so their revenue isn’t dependent on sales margins alone.

We allocate parts of the manufacturing amongst several key suppliers, keeping the full blueprint only in Taiwan.

MP Optimization

Our engineers continuously update the designs, look for better performance components, and add in feature customization tailored to our client’s needs.

The reason why our long-term customers do not shop around for lower-cost manufacturing solutions is because we do all of the cost optimization for them.

We make sure our customers are well informed of our optimization efforts and are happy to pass on the cost savings so that their products stay best-in-market.

Why our Process Works

We are selective about the clients we take on because we care deeply about customer success. If your business case would meet unforeseen challenges, we will help you address your strategic objectives. If your needs are out of the scope of our capabilities, we are more than happy to refer you to our network. Above all else, Titoma builds a process that works for our customers.

We enable this through our relentless focus on our 3 key pillars:

DESIGN FOR MANUFACTURING

We want our product designs to be highly market-competitive, not just look nice on the shelves.

Thus, we will give realistic feedback on manufacturability, unit costs, and marketability.

The results are designing best-in-market products with our clients.

Time To Market

Many excellent products die in the pipeline because it didn’t hit the market on time.

Not because of a design flaw but because the components did not meet manufacturing capability.

Our process ensures we meet delivery dates by involving the makers early.

Peace Of Mind

We ultimately build our business model upon enabling customer success.

This philosophy is reliant on proactively engaging in all problems to arise from product design to end-of-life.

The bottom line is that our customers trust us with their hardware.

If you are:

*An established B2B company who wishes to design and manufacture an electronic product

*Projecting manufacturing order quantities in excess of $150,000 USD, but not large enough to gain priority in top tier ODM providers

*Looking for an experienced partner in Asia as the integration and communication bridge in outsourcing to the best-fit factory
