Founded in 2005, Canterbury Consulting Ltd provides a full product development service to all industries. We can handle your full product development activity, from initial concept to volume production including all electronic, software and industrial design as well as the manufacturing and compliance processes. We focus on the technology and find that our customers usually have the domain specific knowledge relevant to their industry. This approach allows us to be general purpose product design consultants and we often find ourselves leveraging skills and know how from one industry or domain into another.

Our Business Philosophy

We focus on what we think is important to the delivery of our services, such as highly skilled and experienced development engineers and the best design and business tools we can afford. We don't spend money on things that don't directly benefit our customers. So if you come to meet us you wont find flash offices and the conventional trappings of 'success'. We see our success in the high level of repeat business and customer referrals we enjoy.

IP Ownership

When you contract us to develop your product, all IP produced is yours. We understand that other design consultancies retain ownership of source code and design files in order to ensure your repeat business. We disagree, we are of course very interested in repeat business but prefer this to be our customers free choice.

Where suitable we do re-use our customers IP for future projects. If we find a suitable re-use opportunity we approach our customer to arrange a license for the new customer. In this way the IP owner benefits from additional revenue and the new project benefits in a reduction of development time cost and risk.

We carry professional indemnity insurance to £500,000.00 on all work. This covers the development of products to be sold in the Europe and North America regions.
