Cost Down Engineering – with Substance

Everyone talks about cost optimisation—but anyone who’s truly involved in development knows: cost down isn’t an Excel trick, it’s real engineering skill.

What’s often forgotten

Cost reduction doesn’t start with purchasing—it starts in design.

Good cost down engineering understands the bill of materials, manufacturing, assembly, and the customer.

80% of costs are set during the development phase. If you don’t tackle costs there, you’re saving in the wrong place.

Our experience

Maintain function, ensure quality—but consistently question material use, installation space, and the variety of variants.

Involve suppliers early: they often know the simpler solutions.

Use standards rather than custom solutions at any cost.
