Making the CONNECTION Between PEOPLE and PRODUCT Shameless Self-Promotion 73 Years of Innovation Last 10 years…. Nearly 70 multidisciplinary product development specialists, passionate about our clients’ success, collaborate in true partnership in the areas of: Design Research, Product Development, and Implementation. We develop exciting solutions that drive business, create intellectual property, and differentiate themselves from the competition, SUCCESSFULLY! Last 10 days… Allenton, WI St Paul, MN Grafton, WI Brooks Stevens and Ingenium Product Development to Merge *** New Brooks Stevens will be among largest, most comprehensive product development firms in the United States Allenton, Wis. -- Brooks Stevens and Ingenium Product Development today announced plans to merge, positioning the new company to significantly enhance its range of product development capabilities offered to a world-wide customer base of original equipment manufacturers and other clients. national client base Core Competencies design research ethnographic research IDEAtion workshops arbitration research design validation research lifestyle and design trend research competitive market studies product benchmarking product and brand strategy support task analysis & scenario planning on-line surveys, blogs and interviews Core Competencies industrial design task analysis usability testing ergonomic prototyping and evaluation user interface design brand identity & development product styling product graphics color and materials studies mockup and form study development 3D rendering and illustration Core Competencies human factors & ergonomics ergonomic audits & analysis task analysis study of gerontology ergonomic prototyping Core Competencies engineering design for manufacturing and assembly finite element analysis (FEA) technology assessment and integration materials and process analysis tooling and part cost estimates cost/value analysis solid and surface modeling reverse engineering compliance engineering engineering process documentation technical project management engineering test management Core Competencies prototyping CNC machining metal fabrication RTV molding investment and sand castings epoxy, urethane and polyester casting Appearance models Full-function prototypes spray metal & epoxy prototype tooling soft goods prototyping vacuum forming RIM molding rotational molding fiberglass fabrication Core Competencies implementation support concept to production project management global tooling and production sourcing vendor qualification production ramp-up support quality and compliance inspections import logistics support We have developed thousands of products that generated billions of dollars in sales for clients in the consumer, commercial, and medical markets What Have We Done Lately? Manitowoc Cranes: Designed Universal Operator Cab for Free (Almost) Brooks Stevens’ discovery research enabled Manitowoc to eliminate expensive product features with little ROI. A category best cab was developed at a cost well below initial estimates and BSi’s design fees. What Have We Done Lately? Assisted John Deere to Enter the Mass Retail Market and Increase Revenues by 400% Brooks Stevens’ and John Deere’s collaboration on the development of Deere’s first mass retail market product line resulted in a 400% Revenue Increase in John Deere’s consumer business and also energized Home Depot’s sales What Have We Done Lately? Gerry / Evenflo: Turned a Non-Player into a Category Leader in 18 Months In a timeframe of only one year, Brooks Stevens developed an evolutionary stroller design that revolutionized Gerry Baby Products’ business. Sales Exceeded Expectations by 500% and within 18 months the former non-player became the Category Leader What Have We Done Lately? Boon: Developed Product Line for Entrepreneurial Startup Firm that Sells in all Target Stores Boon and Brooks Stevens energized the juvenile products market with functional and competitively priced products that modern parents want and retailers love to sell more than the “me-too” products of the industry giants. What Have We Done Lately? Mercury Marine: Set a new standard in Time-to-Market Brooks Stevens’ designed, engineered, and prototyped a new ‘pod-drive’ propulsion system in less than 10 months, with the public unveiling at the 2006 International Boat Show in Miami. The project was delivered on time and slightly under budget. What Have We Done Lately? Hologic: Achieved 20%+ Cost Reduction while Enhancing Product Performance and Utility Design and cost interrogations, clinical product studies and interviews with key stakeholders that are involved in the lifecycle of the product enabled Brooks Stevens to develop a solution that was not only easier to build, use, and service and 20% less costly to manufacture, but also provided the end user with improved performance and utility. What Have We Done Lately? Brewer Company: Wins 2006 Product of the Year Award – Gains Market Share Brooks Stevens assisted the Brewer Company in the development of the Access HighLow examination chair – the first true chair that easily takes patients from consultation to examination. A multi-disciplinary team of Industrial Design, Human Factors, and Engineering experts collaborated to provide abundant storage, pass-thru drawers, safety grab bars, 18” wheelchair transfer, and a pass-thru work surface Development Process development process Production Support Development Process DISCOVERY Design Research Human Factors Ergonomics Opportunity We immerse ourselves Production Support in our client’s business, culture and products, evaluate product use and use environment, competitive climate to identify opportunities to improve, innovate and differentiate. exploration development implementation Development Process EXPLORATION discovery Production Support Explore conceptual solutions (lots), develop use scenarios, fabricate prototypes, and conduct consumer research to validate the acceptance and viability of the emerging concepts Industrial Design Usability Study Models Innovation development implementation Development Process DEVELOPMENT exploration discovery Production Support Engineering FEA Prototyping Testing Select the most promising and relevant concept for development.
