Vas -n- Mac's Embedded Project Services Offering

Embedded Architectural and Product Development - Every successful Embedded Project starts with an Architectural development definition and a Product Plan. Good planning requires experience to set realistic requirements, goals and expectations for the product. Understanding the capabilities, constraints of the project technology, the development teams skills, and the current development infrastructure will allow for successful planning for an embedded system's product. Vas-N-Mac has an abundance of experience in product planning, embedded Architecture and environments to help your project success.

Embedded Development Environment Definition and Creation - Possibly, you are now ready to take on new embedded engineering challenge. You are quickly required to form internal infrastructure for your new product environment.. Settling for an ad-hoc environment can add unnecessary risk to your product development. Development teams can increase their productivity by a factor of four just by practicing good archiving and revision control processes. Setting up an Hardware Environment to include design tools, review processes, component engineering, ECO/ECN product life cycle management, and BOM hierarchy structures will increase productivity. Software Environment setups are equally important, allowing for fast and automatic builds, source code management, and bug reporting. We, at Vas-N-Mac, have the experience to kick start your new engineering development projects in the right direction straight out of the starting gate!

Engineering Project Management - Successful product development includes skillful project management. Understanding not only methods to achieve the typical product functionality, timeline, quality and cost constraints but also to plan for manufacturing test, manufacturing image load, technology obsolescence, technology reuse and technology portability strategies. Processes such as ISO can help development teams meet their goals,. Processes can be overly constrained achieving negative results. Having experience with processes and metrics that actually help projects and not hinder them can be accomplished.

Project/Technology Evaluation for Management or Investors - Obtaining a second opinion or evaluation can be valuable insurance for management and investors. Having a vested interest in a project requires assurance for a level of certainty and confirmation that the development project is effectively achieving the current defined goals and should the current goals be updated appropriately. Have Vas-N-Mac analyze your engineering project or product development goals today! Patent Attorneys may also retain our services for embedded technology and networking protocol research.

Engineering Technology Documentation Translation - Today, technology is not bounded by continents or national markets. Technology products are sold in international markets, and similarly, they are developed internationally by multiple teams and suppliers. The ability to provided correct multi-language technical documentation enables companies to market, develop and collaborate internationally. Vas-N-Mac provides translation services for technical engineering documentation for the translation from Chinese to English, English to Chinese, Spanish to English and English to Spanish. Do not limit your technical product or development goals - have Vas-N-Mac translate your Engineering user manuals, product manuals, project plans and your system requirements!

Vas -n- Mac's Engineering Design Services Offering

The Architecture, Design, Development, and Manufacturing of embedded systems are intricate processes. Insuring success requires experience with good decision making, driving to resolution tough choices, and top-notch embedded design skills to minimize project risks. Each phase of the product development cycle has its own challenges and requires unique types of expertise. Vas-N-Mac has experience in all phases of embedded product development. We can provide you with services to help you reduce project risk, time-to-market, obsolescence, and cost, while increasing functionality, portability and manufacturability.

RTOS Environment - Vas-N-Mac has extensive experience with Embedded Linux, Nucleus, RTEP, uC, thin clients and other embedded firmware. Although many uP vendors supply a RTOS port to the target uP, the setting up of the build environment with the addition of custom device drivers for hardware peripherals can be a major task. For platforms that support a low level task handlers, custom firmware is required to meet an particular application, temporal and physical constraints. Why not take a leap into your development cycle by retaining Vas-N-Mac to setup your RTOS environment with custom drivers so your development team can focus on your value added application!

Circuit Board and IC design - Circuit card design starts with an architecture to meet the clients specifications while minimizing PCB layers, the number of interconnects, and dense packaging that can add to the assembly and PCB cost. Creating an optimum BOM is often an over-looked task during a project cycle. A good BOM starts by selecting the correct components for the design to ensure non-obsolescence, RoHS/other compliance requirements, manufacturablility, power/temperature constraints, cost, portability and reuse. Since today's circuit board designs use very complex components, ensuring that the supply chain is always available to support the client thru-out the product life cycle is a must. FPGA and ASIC designs require in-depth attention in verification using functional simulation, static timing analysis, and formal verification methods. To insure designs are not just lab science projects but rather reliable products for multiple manufacturing runs, component and manufacturing variations should be addressed by good design practices and processes. For your next design project consider retaining Vas-N-Mac !

Printed Circuit Board Place and Route - Layout and route of dense, multi-layer, small Geometry packaging, high speed designs is a complex process with many design and cost choices. A bad layout can severely affect a project timeline. Vas-N-Mac's extensive experience in PCB layout, route and transmission line effects can minimize the project risk to insure reliable prototypes are available for firmware and software integration project phases.

Problem and Performance Resolution and Analysis - Embedded systems come with many challenges which over the course of a project cycle there may be bumps in the road which requires analysis. Possibly your system is not meeting a performance goal, or there is a hurdle which requires another set of eyes to investigate. Vas-N-Mac's strong strength is our problem solving skills. Save time and let Vas-N-Mac collaborate with your team on your current challenges!
