Engineering
Design & Product Development
From a blank sheet to production-ready drawings, with manufacturability built in.
Overview
What this capability means at OneFit Projects
Our design teams take products, machines and plant from concept through detailed engineering. We work in your CAD environment, follow your drawing standards and hand over complete manufacturing packs, BOMs and design history files that stand up to audit.
How we engage
- Scoped studies with fixed deliverables and price
- Turnkey packages delivered with our engineering, quality and digital teams
- Embedded specialists working in your tools and processes
- Retained support under a framework agreement
Service lines
