Smart Meters: Recently, Simon has been helping our technology design client to introduce their ‘smart’ digital meter product concept into large scale manufacture. CEMs (Contract Electronic Manufacturers) are usually expert in their field of component procurement, PCB assembly and box-building.
However, when a fledgling product ramps up in production volumes there are usually technical hurdles to overcome. Many times, the CEM is not best placed to solve these as an in-depth understanding of the design is required – but the design owners are not always best placed either as an understanding of electronic manufacturing processes is also required.
This is where Pebble Technologies has stepped in, supporting both their client and the CEM to ensure a trouble free product introduction to the market.
Protecting your ideas: Intellectual property is a vital resource to businesses. Knowing how to protect an idea, whether it’s an invention or a brand name, can save your company a lot of time and money.
At Pebble we believe when we’re working on our client’s assignments that any ideas generated by us should become the property of our client. We do however ensure we try to protect our own inventions when we work together within the company.
