Systematic Project Delivery
Into Design employs a methodical and meticulous strategy that encompasses four crucial phases for effective project delivery. In the initial design ideation stage, the company analyzes requirements, generates ideas, assess risks, and evaluates design outcomes to establish a solid base for the design. Utilize design data, create objective models, and develop prototypes during the subsequent design review phase to develop the design. During Design Development, cutting-edge CAD/CAM software, VR & AR, as well as prototyping facilities, to provide comprehensive support for the delivery of products.
Further, design verification includes exhaustive testing, fabrication, and physical/virtual analysis of product samples to ensure the product's optimal functionality. Through tangible interactions with the product, the final phase of design validation ensures that the product or service satisfies user requirements.
Furthermore, proactively engaging clients across four stages yields significant results by assessing design and manufacturing criteria, considering ergonomics, aesthetics, and performance alongside the clients' team. Clients test and evaluate the prototype to ensure user satisfaction. Since its founding, Into Design has served the automobile, product, spatial, lifestyle, and accessory industries. The majority of clients include entrepreneurs, institutes, startups, private corporations, governmental agencies, and multinational companies.
Ultimately, Into Design has a substantial presence in the Indian market and is collaborating with international companies to expand. Expertise in their specialization is what drives client acquisition. Further, Into’s niche expertise in modeling and design for the manufacturing of Fiber Reinforced Polymers and 3D printing has enabled it to establish a strong presence. In the future, Into Design aims to strengthen its expertise in the fields of design for 3D printing, automotive design, & design optimization simulation and expand into the Aerospace, Defense, and product design categories.
