Experts Supported by Experts: An alternative industrial design agency model for full end to end project support
The Fuel’s expertise sits firmly in the industrial design and innovation of physical products, but we know product development often requires a much broader set of skills and expertise, both pre and post the industrial design phase.
Rather than dilute beyond our industrial design specialism, as many agencies do, we’ve opted to build a much stronger offer through a highly trusted network of specialist partners, giving us the end-to-end product development capabilities of a far larger multi-disciplinary agency but with significant benefits.
We can embed precisely the right specialist into our project team only when they are needed, whether that be for consumer research, branding, Ui/Ux, digital strategy, prototyping, engineering development, and manufacturing.
This gives our clients a genuine subject specialist at each stage of the product development process and allows us to deliver the best value for money, as we don’t carry expensive staff overheads that aren’t required.
We have a long standing close relationship with each of our partners which makes us look and feel like one integrated team when we work together.
Advantages of agile teams
Work with the best
All our partners are dedicated specialists within their chosen fields, with the experience and depth of expertise that can’t be found within multifunctional teams.
Better outcomes
By combining different perspectives and viewpoints, we question more and push ourselves harder, in a way a single agency team would struggle to do.
Focused on needs, not resources
We recommend what is best for your project, we have no agenda to sell an engagement based on our available resource capability.
Better value
We save on full-time teams and large infrastructure overheads, so you save on fees.
