When to Call Fidus
Fidus works with embedded systems companies to help solve complex engineering challenges and accelerate product development.
Need Specialized Engineering Expertise?
Some technologies require expertise that internal teams may not have—whether due to rare use, expensive tools, or new technical areas. Fidus engineers can step in quickly to support complex development efforts.
Need to Scale Engineering Quickly?
Hiring specialized engineers can take months, and sourcing the right candidates is often difficult. Fidus maintains a large team of engineers across multiple disciplines, allowing projects to start quickly and scale as development demands grow.
Team Managing Too Many Projects?
Embedded organizations often juggle multiple high-priority initiatives. Fidus can take responsibility for specific engineering tasks or subsystems, allowing internal teams to stay focused on the most critical strategic work.
Working Against Tight Product Deadlines?
Product development frequently operates under strict schedules and narrow market windows. With extensive project experience and established engineering processes, Fidus can ramp up quickly and help maintain development momentum.
Financial Advantages
Outsourcing can seem expensive at first glance, but is it really? When you look closely at your internal costs, the picture changes:
- Recruiting specialized engineers typically requires long candidate searches, multiple interview rounds, and extensive onboarding efforts.
- Maintaining in-house capabilities that are only occasionally used can also be inefficient. Fidus provides engineering expertise when it is needed, allowing companies to scale resources based on project demand.
- Internal teams also carry ongoing costs including salaries, benefits, training, vacations, and sick days. With Fidus, organizations pay only for the engineering work being delivered.
- Additionally, specialized design tools and licenses are included. Fidus provides the development infrastructure required for complex engineering projects, eliminating additional investments in software, equipment, and maintenance.
Flexible Business Models
Fidus supports projects through both Time & Materials and Fixed Price engagement models.
- Time & Materials: This model allows projects to begin quickly and adapt as requirements evolve during development. Many organizations prefer this approach once they experience the flexibility it provides.
- Fixed Price: Fixed Price arrangements provide budget predictability for projects with clearly defined scope and deliverables. In some cases, projects begin with fixed milestones and transition to more flexible engagement as development progresses.
Our Projects
Fidus has delivered thousands of engineering projects across a wide range of technologies and product development initiatives. Explore our Portfolio to see examples of FPGA development, hardware platforms, embedded systems, and advanced engineering solutions.
