Design & Engineering
Design & Engineering Solutions Built Around Your Success
Exceptional manufacturing begins long before production. At BERMO, design and engineering are integrated into every stage of the process to ensure parts are manufacturable, cost-effective, and repeatable. Our engineering-first approach focuses on collaboration, accuracy, and delivering the best possible results for your program.
A Customer-First Engineering Approach
Most suppliers build the print. BERMO builds a partnership.
From your initial quote through production launch, we evaluate your 3D model for manufacturability, cost drivers, material efficiency, weld and forming strategy, automation opportunities, and anything that could impact quality or lead time.
Instead of keeping recommendations internal, our engineers communicate directly with your team to discuss design intent, potential improvements, and the best path forward. This open exchange eliminates surprises and ensures alignment from the start.
A Structured Engineering & Activation Workflow
Our engineering process is designed to reduce risk, improve cost, and ensure a smooth production launch.
Solid Model Intake
Every project begins with a detailed analysis of your CAD model to identify opportunities and flag potential challenges early.
Cross-Functional Review
Engineering, Quality, and Production collaborate to define the ideal stamping, forming, and welding approach; review tolerance and datum schemes; and determine fixture, tooling, and automation needs.
Customer Collaboration
Insights and recommendations are shared directly with your engineering team—virtually or onsite—to ensure clarity and alignment on manufacturability and performance targets.
Finalized Build Plan
Once the approach is confirmed, we create SolidWorks-based tooling models, process sequences, routing, and cost structures, and prepare all required documentation for PPAP, FAI, or customer-specific standards.
This disciplined, front-loaded process minimizes risk, reduces rework, and shortens time to production.
Engineering Expertise That Adds Real Value
With deep experience in metal stamping, forming, welding, and fabrication, our engineers understand how design choices affect manufacturing. We evaluate your part holistically to improve manufacturability and long-term performance.
This may include optimizing weld strategy, converting manual welds to robotic operations, simplifying assemblies, improving material utilization, tightening functional tolerances, or enhancing repeatability. These improvements don’t just reduce cost, they elevate the reliability and quality of the final product.
Support From Quote Through Launch
Our team stays involved from the moment a quote is submitted through every design iteration and into final approval. Customers value our hands-on approach because we provide proactive recommendations, not reactive corrections. We bring ideas, solutions, and engineering insight at every stage.
