What We Dig Into

Seven disciplines. One accountable team.

Our engineers are bilingual in hardware and software — so your product is designed as a whole, not stitched together from silos.

Mined Over Matters

We've been looking for you.

The client with the impossible design challenge, the unlikely schedule and the improbable budget. You are exactly the brand of customer that makes our engineers feel alive — your insane requirements make them titter with glee. And engineers usually don't titter.

You got the challenge? We have the tools.

— We're Fertile Mined. We Dig Deeper.
From the Mine

Selected work.

Medical devices, precision robotics, consumer products and manufacturing equipment — evidence that we don't call ourselves Fertile Mined for nothin'.

Why FMI

Even our business model is
born of cutting-edge innovation.

We're so confident we deliver better value off the starting block that we price below anyone — that is, everyone else. And the deeper you partner with us, the greater your savings.

01

Documentation that becomes your playbook

Our Engineer-in-a-Notebook™ details every decision down to manufacturing spec — the best documentation in the industry, and a model methodology for your future work.

02

Faster to market

Clients tell us, again and again, that Fertile Mined ships a product faster than their internal teams. That's why we're the partner of choice for new products.

03

Better ROI

We're engineers and business analysts. Collaborating early, we help you spot opportunities and make products that are cost-effective and profitable.

04

Surge capacity on demand

Delays happen. Our engineers can step in at any point in the development process to help you hit critical dates.

05

End-to-end manufacturability

We research the use environment and your manufacturing resources first — designs that maximize function and usability, and build cleanly on what you already own.

06

Iron-clad timelines

Every new project gets a schedule we'll meet — or we pick up the tab. CPIF pricing because we share your priorities.
