Engineering

Transforming the visualization into the components that match your distribution requirements is the job of our engineering department. Your implementation scenario drives the solution. Our engineers have a unique skill set in that they specialize in multiple materials. They also design the solution with an eye towards fulfillment and implementation to optimize weight and minimize shipping costs. We create solutions that differentiate your brand, fulfill your requirements and positively impact your bottom line.

At SMS, we can engineer anything you need to fit the execution strategy for all your retail solutions. Engineering is the key to managing costs. That’s why we create solutions that not only meet your brand and product needs, but are engineered smartly—products that, for instance, fit into the smallest possible shipping container to save money, or assemble easily to save time. It’s at this critical engineering stage that decisions are made that significantly impact the success of any project.

After the project is engineered, we build a prototype to confirm the fit and product specifications. Through value engineering, we are able to reduce direct and indirect costs, as well as confirm materials to minimize the cost structure, and preplan assembly, warehousing and fulfillment. Value engineering of each component is critically important to the success of the project as a whole.
