Engineering
Smart engineering for future-proof products.
- Faster route to series production: a structured four-phase process instead of endless iteration
- Secure costs early: FMEA and space analyses before changes become expensive
- Greater flexibility: engineering on demand, scalable to your needs
Top solutions
Engineering: creative solutions for your vision.
Creative innovation and reliable support: our engineering portfolio combines extensive expertise with state-of-the-art technologies to bring your vision to life. From the product idea and precise space analyses to prototype construction and technical documentation, we support you at every stage of product development. With an interdisciplinary approach, innovative methods and a focus on quality, we deliver your projects efficiently and make them ready for the future.
YOUR BENEFITS
From idea to series production – without costly surprises.
Engineering is not an end in itself. It is the key to bringing products to market more profitably, faster and with fewer errors. Saving too early can cost ten times as much later.
70% of product costs
are determined during development – this is where margins and quality are decided.
10× more expensive afterwards
is the cost of an error that is only identified during series production (Rule of Ten).
75% shorter prototyping time
through additive manufacturing compared with conventional production.
25+ years of experience
in automotive, mechanical engineering, medical technology and other industries.
OUR PORTFOLIO AT A GLANCE
Creative innovation and reliable support that bring your vision to life.
Complete development and design support.
From the product idea to the final drawing, we provide comprehensive support in development and design planning, including flexible employee leasing for your projects.
Package space analyses & risk analyses.
Our precise space analyses ensure a perfect fit and reliable function through advanced collision and tolerance assessments. FMEA analyses and CE marking safeguard product quality and help you meet all legal requirements.
Project management.
Project management for development projects. Whether agile or waterfall, our experience from many successful projects allows us to apply the right method to bring your project to completion.
Feasibility studies.
Our studies combine technical feasibility with in-depth market analysis to position your product effectively.
Reverse engineering & additive manufacturing.
Using reverse engineering and additive manufacturing, we create innovative solutions and refine existing products.
Mechatronics Concept Designer.
Experience the future of product development with integrated mechatronic systems that seamlessly combine mechanics and electronics.
- Potential analyses and capacity planning
- Define technical functions
- Integrate design concepts
- Apply creativity techniques
- Create unique selling points
No-obligation initial consultation on our engineering services
Together, we assess how to optimise your engineering processes effectively, including integration effort, specific benefits and realistic KPIs.
STATE-OF-THE-ART TECHNOLOGIES
Technical documentation.
To ensure that low-code does not stop at a single application, you need a defined approach, governance and integration.
- 3D renderings & 2D drawings.
- Bills of materials.
- FMEA (failure mode and effects analysis).
- Tolerance analyses.
- Assembly and operating instructions.
Project management
Partial or complete projects.
- Milestone-based project management (pre-planning, concept development, concept validation, product validation, series preparation, production launch)
- Cost and schedule planning.
- Resource planning.
- Preparation of requirements and functional specifications.
- Interdisciplinary interface management.
WHY STRUCTURED ENGINEERING MATTERS
Engineering with d.u.h.Group compared with going it alone.
With d.u.h.Group as your partner
- –Clear requirements through structured requirements and functional specifications
- –FMEA at an early stage – errors cost only a fraction of the series-production price
- –Interdisciplinary coordination of mechanics, electronics and software
- –Scalable capacity: resources exactly when you need them
- –CE-compliant documentation without last-minute pressure
- –Proven methodology from more than 25 years across numerous industries
Without structured engineering
- –Unclear requirements lead to costly rework during series production
- –Errors are only identified after prototype approval – at ten times the cost
- –Silos between specialist departments slow down decisions
- –Limited internal capacity holds the project back
- –CE documentation becomes a last-minute firefighting exercise shortly before launch
- –Experience has to be rebuilt from scratch with every new project

Would you like to know which engineering service will deliver the greatest value for your current project and whether the effort and benefits are in balance?
What we clarify in the initial consultation:
- Objectives and KPIs: What should improve – development time, error rate or time to market?
- Scope of services: Complete development, a partial service or engineering on demand?
- Feasibility and methodology: Which phase, which method and which CAD environment?
- Next steps: An initial effort estimate, timeline and a clear starting point.
