Our Services & Competence Overview
At 2M, we deliver engineering excellence and innovative solutions to empower businesses with precision, efficiency, and sustainability. By combining advanced expertise with cutting-edge technologies, we tackle complex challenges through tailored, measurable approaches. Our services include taking responsibility for (parts of) innovation and technical product development, providing state-of-the-art know-how, flexibility, and reduced costs and risks—allowing clients to focus on their core business. Additionally, as an OEM/ODM partner, we specialize in modular hardware, software, and signal processing architectures, utilizing pre-built platforms and customizable components to deliver fast, low-risk, and cost-effective solutions that meet unique product requirements.
Idea to Concept Creation
At 2M, we collaborate with you to define your minimum viable product and its key use cases, focusing on the core value it delivers by addressing a clear problem.
Our expertise lies in distilling your product’s essence, identifying its unique value proposition, and crafting the optimal technical solution. By combining proven and innovative components, we transform your vision into reality.
Intellectual Property Strategy & Innovation
We analyze the patent landscape of existing products to identify opportunities and ensure freedom to operate. Through brainstorming and targeted product development, we create new, patentable ideas to strengthen your competitive edge. Additionally, we evaluate alternative IP strategies, such as leveraging smart algorithms, to determine the most effective approach for securing a defensible market position.
Technical Feasibility & Proof of Concept
We develop a functional demonstrator to validate and showcase the technical feasibility of the product concept, with an initial focus on perfecting the core measurement functionality.
Proving technical feasibility enables more accurate estimation of risks, product costs, and project timelines, ensuring a solid foundation for development.
Prototype Development
We design prototypes guided by user requirement specifications (URS), offering support in their creation when needed.
Our process typically involves two stages: alpha prototype development followed by user testing, leading to a beta prototype. A go/no-go decision to advance the prototype to a final product is made based on user, client, and business feedback. Prototypes are also commonly utilized for research and clinical studies.
Industrialization
We transform prototypes into manufacturable solutions, covering all necessary preparation steps, including test tools, tooling design, production processes, and comprehensive documentation.
Medical & Certification
We ensure prototypes & products meet ATEX, CE, and MDD/MDR standards (IVD, Class 1, 2a, 2b), preparing them for manufacturing through comprehensive steps, including testing, tooling, production processes, and required certifications.
Production & Assembly
At 2M, we remain flexible by partnering with trusted production and assembly houses capable of handling small to large volumes. For small to midsize batches, we also offer in-house assembly, also for ISO13485 certified medial products via DutchMedicalDevices. Alternative arrangements can be tailored to your needs.
Project & Product Management
2M brings extensive expertise in managing and executing complex projects, collaborating with diverse national and international public and private organizations to deliver successful outcomes.
