Communications company
This is a dynamic company based on the north-west coast. Their business focuses on two main elements: software communication applications and flood prevention systems.
Their flood prevention systems use sensor technology and real time weather data to help predict and prevent flooding in certain areas. This is achieved by their unique product solutions and data management systems.
They install and maintain communication equipment throughout the whole of the UK and Northern Ireland, and offer flexible contracts to their customers to meet their specific systems and needs.
Here is the background and what they have to say about us…
The background
The team approached us for help with their key product range and manufacture of the prototype assemblies of the latest versions of their flood prevention products.
Timescales to produce working prototypes were extremely tight, and it was critical to get the relevant approval testing completed before official product launch.
The project covered a suite of eight different PCB assemblies and two box builds. Throughout the prototype stages we scrutinised the documentation sent to us to ensure there were no potential problems. We kept our customer updated on the progress of the project at all stages and reported any process control issues encountered as soon as possible.
As with most new designs the R&D could not be fully finalised until the first issue prototypes had been manufactured. Keeping our customer up to date throughout prototype development ensured the smooth transition from initial design to first production run.
Following successful approval of the new prototypes our customer placed the first production order. This included full programming of the control boards. We also undertook the final test and calibration of the completed products and provided them with the relevant results and records ready for site installation.
What they say
“Upon referral to Nyquist we quickly realised their attention to detail and responsiveness was exactly what we needed to get our new prototypes produced, approved and launched. Their quick turnaround of the new PCB assemblies as well as their proactive attitude was essential in keeping the project on course and resolving any teething issues.
Their technical support throughout this prototype stage was key, and we were able to openly discuss all aspects of the build throughout. As well as guiding us through the many stages, they also helped us to keep future orders on schedule.
They adapted the changes needed to the prototypes throughout the whole process. Their ability to take on the additional programming, testing, and calibration, saved not only our engineer’s valuable time, but also gave us peace of mind.
Their experience of conformal coating and potting was invaluable to ensuring our products quality was of the highest standard, and robust enough to withstand the harsh environments they are used in.
Their attention to detail throughout the assembly processes was critical to making the project a success.”
Nyquist were instrumental in the development of our latest range of PCB assemblies. They are responsive and knowledgeable and have always worked flexibly to meet our production requirements and timescales. I can highly recommend them, not just for initial development and delivery but for ongoing, critical technical support and procurement.
