The Ferramenta team brings over 50 years experience to the table in engineer, manufacturing and retail sales. Partner with us to ensure your product is a success.
Successful hardware product development is tough. It’s real tough. But it’s necessary. This is where FERRAMENTA comes in. We take our experience, connections and knowledge and apply them to some of the biggest hurdles in your product development lifecycle to allow you to focus on core sales and operations activities. From prototyping to mass production, from manufacturer discovery to vetting, from quality control to interpreter services, and from logistics to certifications we are with you each step of the way. Once your product is produced, packaged, certified and delivered, we can even connect you with our manufacturer’s reps and retail connections to properly sell and distribute your product into the most specific and high margin channels as possible.
Do you consider yourself a product inventor? Are you constantly coming up with new consumer product ideas but just aren’t sure if you really want to go through the whole patent and manufacturing process? Is there a way for you to generate income of off these novel ideas without doing all of the leg work? The answer is yes: Licensing.
Licensing your ideas to an existing product manufacturer is an affordable and effective way to generate income off of your idea(s) without footing the entire bill for the patent, prototyping, manufacturing and marketing of your product. Why foot the bill and go through the headache of trying to compete with existing manufacturers when you can partner with them and being collecting a paycheck when they launch your product? Ask us more.
Contracts, intellectual property, agreements & all that jazz. We’ve dealt with attorneys for years & can help you cut those monthly retainer costs in half. We’ve raised millions of dollars in capital for consumer electronics startups. How can we assist your raise?
Product Engineering & Design are the most important steps in your product development life cycle. We have experts in our network who will dedicate to your product.
Do you need help with FCC, CE or MFi certifications? Let’s do it! Logistics headaches? We can help get your products to your fulfillment center & even help you find the right fulfillment partners. Need a retail display? We have partners for that.
You have an idea but haven’t done any market research to test its traction. Let us help you. Maybe you’ve found the product concept has some traction but not sure which routes you can take to bring it to market. Our strategy team can help guide you.
Let us help you find and vet the right manufacturer for your product. We can help you find & manage quality controllers and interpreters on the ground. Don’t let your products leave the factory without inspecting them!
We have literally partnered with the best product-focused PR agencies. Their services include product launch, trade show, media relations & product placement services.
The first step in the creation of your product is to make sure it can actually be mass produced at an affordable per unit price. Also, if the only person that will buy it is your family member then you may have an issue. We determine if this is the case. If you're not sure what IP strategy to take then we can point you in the right direction.
Step 3 of the process takes your concept from the screen to your hand. Thanks to recent advances in 3D printing technologies & rapid prototyping services, this phase can be measured in weeks/months versus years. The Design for Manufacturing (DFM) process ensures there will not be major complications when it comes time to create the mold & begin mass production.
This phase is where the rubber meets the mold (get it?). Making one prototype and mass producing 50,000 units are two very different things which bring inherently different challenges. This is where Ferramenta's team of experts really step up. Let us help you choose the right manufacturer(s) and final assembly facility. We negotiate costs & lead times for you. Need help interpreting services? We got you covered.
During the production process there are important steps you must take to protect your ass & your assets. We will make sure that all of your components and finished goods meet your specific industry and vendor/partner standards. If you can't be on the ground yourself to inspect your products, we have partners on the ground that do both intra-production & final inspections.d
