Our Clients

Our services are targeted primarily toward small and medium sized manufacturers and inventors who do not have the capabilities in-house to accomplish their product development or improvement needs.

Other targeted audiences include companies who need gap engineering services - that is, companies who have engineering teams but would like the NPDC to complete smaller side projects so as to relieve their in-house staff.
