Requirement Analysis
Assessed the client’s existing dependency on Client's previous supplier, analyzed cable specifications, and identified cost, lead time, and risk bottlenecks to define clear objectives.
Design & Engineering
Reverse-engineered technical specifications from client-provided data sheets, created manufacturable drawings, and defined quality benchmarks for defense-grade standards.
Prototyping & Validation
Built initial cable prototypes with local partners, conducted electrical and mechanical tests, and obtained full approval from the client’s engineering team on first batch.
Vendor Integration & Production Setup
Onboarded a certified Indian cable manufacturer, implemented process audits, set up pilot runs, and aligned production lines to meet required defense-grade compliance.
