The Projects Group, Inc.

Expert assistance with all phases of new product development.

Practical and technical solutions (and more) are our stock-in-trade! Whether is design, prototyping, manufacturing or some other aspect of product and service design, we creatively design the solution to your business product and service problem.

The Projects Group Inc. (PGI hereafter) has been creating business solutions for over 25 years. Our only focus is bringing the ideas of companies and individuals to the marketplace. Our clients have a concept for a new or innovative product or service idea and need help moving it forward – to create a prototype or to take it to market. We help our clients make these dreams become a reality.

Our Clients
Typically our clients come to us via referral from satisfied clients or their patent attorneys. Over the years our clients have been individuals with a “day job” and a great idea, entrepreneurs developing a business and small businesses who need help with a specific project.

Some illustrations of projects we have worked and helped bring to market include:

The Process Cycle
The typical Process starts with a no-cost initial meeting.[NOTE: We always execute a strict non-disclosure agreement before the meeting commences] This is when we listen to ideas and view sketches, models, etc. This first meeting allows PGI to evaluate its possible role in the development of the concept. If we feel we can help, we rapidly, usually within a week, submit a fixed-price written proposal for the project’s development phase. The proposal defines: the scope of the project; the deliverables; the fee schedule and includes a timing estimate.

Generally speaking, the goods and services outlined in the proposal include:

  • an assessment of current technology
  • where the inventors concept might fit in
  • preparation of drawings and or models
  • preparation of an aesthetically pleasing hand built prototypes that a client might use to get a first order!

    The client, inventor, is kept in-the-loop at every stage of the project. PGI expects the clients to provide feedback and to approve the each step of plan. Included in the base proposal is the offer to work with your patent attorney or a firm we know is right for you. We will meet with you and your lawyer to provide an overview of prior art,and offer drawings and description of the invention.

    Our proposals commonly include the offer to produce sub- and mass- production quantities of the new product we helped bring to prototype stage.. As expected most manufacturers love large orders and offer volume pricing -- a manufacturer of 10,000 frying pans is easy to find. Finding a shop that is willing to manufacture 10 to 100 frying pans at an acceptable cost is a very difficult.

    And a client may only need 10 items at this point in the product development. A client doesn’t need 10,000 for concept and new product focus groups or for a regional market study. To address this issue: PGI has cultivated numerous contacts (manufactures and other fabricators) over the many years we've been in business. Because we've developed ideas that utilize an entire spectrum of manufacturing technologies, we are confident that we can offer our clients an excellent set of possible producers so that a client can secure any number of products at a truly at an exceptionally reasonable cost.

    Who hasn’t thought – “Boy isn’t that pretty silly. I would do this way…” Some of the best solutions to a common or uncommon problem stem from consumer with a better idea. So before you think, “Hey I thought of that, but I didn’t do anything about it. ” do something about it! Get the ball rolling and contact the Projects Group Incorporated. We love making your ideas real!
