P3A* Design Review Services

for electronic design and development projects

Are you looking for a way to improve your electronic product design, reduce expensive mistakes, increase robustness, secure good production outcomes and speed up the overall development?

There is one service that can assist you to achieve these goals:

Engage an experienced external professional to review your design at several stages in the development. Being at arms length allows an external reviewer a unique objective insight that will assist your team on a number of levels.

Design for Manufacturing (DFM) is an area that often tends to be neglected but will be crucial for getting a well manufactured and tested product ready for sale at a competitive price.

Unfortunately we often get involved in a design review at the point where the design has already progressed to the pre-production stage. Sometimes prompted by the manufacturer rejecting a design with too many build and test deficiencies. Regrettably when we review a product for DFM late in the cycle, we often discover some underlying issues that could and should have been addressed in a previous design stage.

Like many other aspects, DFM needs to be an integral part of the design from the early stages. The further these problems travel down the design path the more expensive the resolution becomes.

To maximise the benefits of external design reviews we recommend engaging at the concept design stage. The fastest way to create success is to replicate it. Your reviewer will have experience from a wide range of electronic product designs that can assist even a skilled team to improve the overall outcome. In other words a single prototype loop saved will often pay for the assistance we provide.

We understand that every product development is different and will require different levels of assistance. Therefore we offer 3 different levels of engagement:

“Working with Peter Nink from P3A Star was a fantastic experience that significantly impacted the development of our new Electronics design / IoT product. By involving Peter in the early stages of the design process, we were able to take advantage of his deep expertise and knowledge of the field to create a better product in less time.
Peter’s insights and feedback were invaluable in refining our design and identifying areas of improvement that we had overlooked. By addressing these issues early on in the development process, we were able to avoid costly mistakes down the line, and we were able to create a better product overall.

Not only did Peter help us to save time and money, but he also helped us to create a product that we’re truly proud of. His commitment to excellence and dedication to his work were evident in every aspect of the review process, and it was clear that he genuinely cared about helping us to create the best possible product.

If you’re looking for an expert who can help you develop a cutting-edge Electronics design / IoT product while saving you time and money, Peter Nink is the perfect partner for you. We couldn’t be happier with the experience we had working with Peter, and we highly recommend him to anyone looking to create an exceptional product.”
