team can be as involved in the production phase as requested by our clients for clients with internal manufacturing or established relationships with contract manufacturers our engineers are available to ensure quality is maintained and provide ongoing engineering support as needed simplexity has a dedicated new product introduction npi team that can guide the transition from design into production the npi team presents multiple options for manufacturing to the client allowing clients to choose the solution that best suits their needs this can involve simplexity performing initial builds in house prior to full handoff to a contract manufacturer or building the product via established relationships with contract manufacturing partners either domestically or overseas early in the process typical deliverables manufacturing guidance and ongoing engineering support ongoing quality metrics monitoring and optimization phase 3 design verification and design transfer design engineering software design complete hardware pre production units for design verification test design verification test npi mfg readiness cm schedule and budget unit build tracking quality quality metrics verification process process validation support this phase occurs once the detailed design is complete and prototypes are built with manufacturing representative quality and detail more extensive formal testing is performed such as life reliability safety environmental drop and vibration the design team works closely with the manufacturing team to enable a smooth transfer often with simplexity engineers traveling to the contract manufacturer sites to ensure product quality the design is transferred to the client based upon specific needs most often after all tests are complete and the design is verified typical deliverables pre production units formal verification test reports design transfer package including design history file dhf if needed for fda submittal process validation support unit build tracking contract manufacturing schedule and budget quality metrics verification gate definition design verification complete phase 2c detailed design prototype 2 design engineering software full feature implementation hardware prototype 2 units with production representative materials and processes test engineering confidence test integration test npi mfg readiness cm onboarding design transfer prep quality build quality plan 2c prototype 2 design build and test phase 2c iterates on the learnings of phase 2b and involves a refined prototype build of a fully integrated system some projects also benefit from additional iterations of the product based on prior learnings through additional phases 2d 2e etc which are not represented in this graphic all requirements are intended to be tested and at the end of phase 2 there will be confidence that the units will pass verification in phase 3 the bill of materials is further refined and the team updates estimates for the per unit cost of the product by receiving pricing from vendors and suppliers typical deliverables updated prototypes software and or firmware binaries and source code updated schematics and layout updated 3d cad files and 2d drawings verification test plans and reports updated bill of materials bom and cost of goods sold cogs build quality plan development design transfer preparation contract

efforts in the product development process where the specific implementation for all disciplines occurs mechanical industrial design electrical firmware systems software manufacturing and quality simplexity typically engages with production component suppliers and contract manufacturing groups early in this phase to provide additional manufacturing input on the design if the product has stringent testing or certification requirements pre screens are performed in this phase prior to formal regulatory agency testing typical deliverables prototypes 3d printed or other rapid prototypes
