The journey from the first product idea to the final product shelved in the market isn’t an easy one. Companies require adept in-house engineering, designing, prototyping, and commercialization expertise to be able to develop their products. But in most instances, companies don’t have expertise in all the required domains, thus creating a gap in product development processes. Striving to bridge this gap, Concept2Creation comes into the picture, offering product development services to businesses and helping them transform their product-ideas into tangible products. They present end-to-end solutions, custom-tailored for their clients’ needs, from design development to prototyping production and manufacturing with their core team of engineers and design specialists, enabling clients to overcome the in-house shortage of resources and expertise and rely lesser on multiple suppliers for each of these services. “We aim at being the product lifecycle partner, providing all-encompassing solution from the design development to prototyping to low-mid volume production ranges,” mentions Shant Alexanian, Co-founder & CEO of Concept2Creation.

Concept2Creation offers full-scale product development services. The company leverages 3D printing, CNC machining, injection molding, cast urethane, thermal forming, prototype assembly, and a variety of other processes to help execute the design development work through to prototyping. They also offer several engineering services and specialty services, including material selection, functional testing, validation laser metrology, 3D scanning, and reverse engineering. The key advantage for them is their ability to develop all of the solutions faster than the contemporaries, with their internal resources, eliminating outsourcing, which gives them a differential edge and allows them to be more flexible in customer services.

“Our biggest differentiating factor is that we do everything in-house, giving us the agility to, for example, make on-the-fly changes to designs to better optimize it for manufacturing, and comply with the engineering specifications and requirements of the product,” says Shant.

Concept2Creation follows a methodical approach to provide custom services to clients with solutions based on their individual project’s scope. They start from scratch with the documentation for the engineering requirements and specifications to obtain a clear picture of the client’s needs. Accordingly they align their design development solutions through multiple concept level design iterations. Further, they execute 3D modeling, material specifications, and then design for manufacturability.

Bringing out their efficacy, Shant mentioned a case study of a client who lacked sufficient in-house engineering expertise. Here Concept2Creation facilitated this client to develop an electromechanical system with five degrees of freedom and touch screen controls, guiding them through the design development to prototyping and coding and debugging the system, followed by the validation of the product. Besides featuring high-quality, the project characterized a meager execution time of around four months, from the initial inception to the validation.

Concept2Creation’s array of solutions serves numerous customers across several market segments, primarily automotive consumer goods and aerospace industries. From innovators to visionaries to entrepreneurs, they serve a dynamic range of customers in almost any product development phase. “We have a wide range of customers approaching us to augment capacities that they don’t have internally, but require for any phase of production; be it for the engineering and development, or prototyping, or low volume production,” mentions Shant. One of the primary factors aiding them to develop solutions across several sectors is the multifaceted team, with more than four decades of manufacturing experience in design and technical areas, building a creative culture to support visionaries and entrepreneurs.

Aiming to upscale their business, Concept2Creation is majorly reinvesting their profits into equipment, technology, and material upgradation and enhancing their manufacturing and prototyping services. They are working on introducing advanced 3D printing capabilities. They are also looking forward to enhancing their CNC machining with five-axis machining and specialty three-axis to improve their overall manufacturing operations. Overall, their efforts have efficiently functioned to translate anything from the smallest to biggest product ideas into the final product, traversing all stages of the product development cycle.
