BRAIN TO BOX™

Reimagining Manufacturing in America

Re:Build develops and manufactures technologically advanced products from concept through production at scale here in the United States using a Brain to Box™ process.

Specialized engineering firms often lack a manufacturing footprint, supply chain capabilities, or commercialization experience. ODMs and traditional CMs lack the front-end ability to translate market data into meaningful product concepts. Further, without scale or long-term manufacturing commitments, they are unwilling to dedicate the vital engineering capabilities (hardware, software, and process) necessary to solve challenging problems and develop technologies. Re:Build has overcome those obstacles by integrating compatible organizations, helping them thrive, and enabling customers to take their idea from inception to commercial production efficiently and effectively.

Re:Build’s Brain to Box approach has six phases. Customers either participate in all six or a plan is tailored to meet their needs.

1. Planning & Alignment

Projects are launched after consensus on objectives, strategies, and a detailed road map for the commercialization of products, services, and technologies.

2. Discovery & Concept

Ideas and insights are promptly translated into a mock-up. Detailed development requirements mitigate risk in engineering and prototyping.

3. Design & Development

Re:Build’s iterative process in engineering and design for manufacturing, which is fundamental to our lean methodology. Products are cost-effective and perform as intended.

4. Process Verification & Validation

The appropriate materials, process, and manufacturing operations are developed so you can focus on your customers and scale. Customers are confident the right product is built correctly. 

5. Product Verification & Validation

High-quality final products meet the necessary requirements for safety, reliability, and ease of use.

6. Manufacturing & Support

After a new product is brought to life, smooth delivery is facilitated by skillful supply chain management, assembly, warehousing, and distribution capabilities.
