Cost
Engineering
Know what a product should cost
before you negotiate it.
Should-cost models, design-to-cost reviews and supplier breakdowns show where every cent goes — so savings come from engineering decisions, not from pressure on a price you cannot explain.
The reality
Most Cost Is Locked In
Before the First
Quotation.
Good ideas are everywhere. What makes the difference is the ability to turn an idea into a product that can be manufactured, compliant, cost-efficient and desirable in the target market. Many companies face delays, quality issues and unexpected costs because product development happens in isolation — without the right partners, market insight or manufacturing expertise.
AVT brings all the pieces together.
So you can move from concept to market with confidence, speed and a higher chance of success.
Execution
makes the difference.
Our approach
Cost Designed In,
Not Negotiated Later.
We integrate market research, engineering, material selection, supplier development, prototyping, testing and cost optimization into a single, structured process. This reduces risk, shortens time-to-market and increases the chances of long-term success.

Frequently asked questions
How early should we involve AVT in the product development process?
As early as possible — ideally while the product is still an idea or a brief. Most of the cost, compliance and manufacturability of a product is decided before the first drawing is frozen, and that is where we add the most value.
Can AVT help with both hardware and software products?
Our core is physical products and the electronics inside them. For connected products we work alongside your software team or partners so firmware, app and cloud requirements are part of the hardware plan from the start.
How do you ensure product compliance for different markets?
We fix the target markets at the start and turn the applicable standards into design requirements. Pre-compliance testing happens on prototypes, and the technical file is built alongside the product — so certification confirms the work instead of surprising it.
What makes AVT different from a traditional sourcing agent?
A sourcing agent finds a factory and negotiates a price. AVT designs the product, the cost structure and the supply chain around your market, and stays through validation, launch and lifecycle support with full visibility at every step.
