Hello,
We are The Federal, a design consultancy based in Ottawa. We are a continually-growing firm with a wide range of expertise. We are would like to submit a proposal for the design work you are requesting. Our consultancy is comprised of industrial designers who understand how business is conducted in large corporations and the pace at which it occurs. We at The Federal are able to meet, and exceed, those needs.
In the development of your products we will work closely with you to generate concepts. We will deliver sketches, CAD and renders to further evaluate how the products will look and function. We will then source a model maker to deliver a model which will give you an accurate model of the actual product.
Prior to starting The Federal, we worked on the design team at BlackBerry. Our products developed with BlackBerry included hard cases, soft goods, audio products, power cables and charging stations and future concepts such as tablets and phones. We were part of the team who developed the accessories featured in the release of the new BlackBerry Z10 as well as many phones prior to that.
You have not listed specific requirements, but to give you a ballpark figure on our cost it would be:
$900 for concept generation around a specific product; with product renders and simple CAD
$1000 for follow through of a concept to manufacturing; full technical drawings, and correspondence with manufacturers
We can start working for you immediately.
The Federal is a uniquely Canadian-based consultancy where we design everything from kitchenwares, to medical product interfaces, to sporting equipment. We are young and energetic and we are not afraid to push the envelope on design and engineering.
Our consultancy offers a well-rounded approach to designing products, interiors and user interfaces. We can research market trends and competitors, conceptualize new ideas through brainstorming and sketching, deliver rough and appearance models for evaluation, apply graphical treatments and develop product brand identity, build technical models and drawings, seek and source materials, manage colors and fabrics, and deal with manufacturers overseas to help bring products to market. At The Federal we have a good knowledge of how a wide variety of products and materials are manufactured and the extents to which they can be used, an education which can save our clients a great deal of time and money.

We look forward to hearing from you.
Please note that a terms and conditions contract will need to be signed and agreed upon prior to starting work.
