Services

Clear deliverables. Practical outcomes.

Strategy

Scale-Up & Industrialization

Stage-gated plans from lab → pilot → production. Throughput targets, CAPEX/OPEX, milestones, and risk reduction steps.

Operations

Process & Yield Systems

Process mapping, control plans, SPC/PFMEA, and performance envelopes for metals, oxides, ceramics, and specialty routes.

Finance

Techno‑Economic Analysis

Transparent assumptions, sensitivity analysis, and cost models to support boards, lenders, and grants.

Quality

Regulatory & QA

Audit-ready documentation, data integrity, and validation frameworks for regulated environments.

Sourcing

Partner Enablement

Specification-driven sourcing, make‑buy decisions, and supplier technical alignment.

Special

Confidential Projects

When problems are ambiguous or “impossible,” we shape them into solvable, investable programs.

Who We Help

Industrial Operators

Materials producers, component makers, battery/energy firms needing scale, yield, or quality improvements.

Investors & Lenders

Diligence on plants, pilots, and business plans, translating science into bankable execution paths.

Government & Labs

Independent reviews, program shaping, and TEA support for public initiatives in critical materials.

Approach

  • Evidence first: Decisions trace to data, models, and controlled trials.
  • Independent & discreet: No client logos or public case studies.
  • Conflict‑aware: Engagements begin with a conflict check and clear boundaries.
  • Time‑boxed: Short, testable sprints that reduce risk step‑by‑step.
Clean-room protocols Versioned assumptions Gate reviews Audit readiness

Typical Deliverables

Scale Plan

Throughput model, bottleneck analysis, staffing, utilities, and phased CAPEX/OPEX with sensitivities.

Process Package

Unit ops, control plans, sampling schemes, and yield tracking with dashboards/templates.

TEA Summary

Assumptions, cost stack, and scenarios suitable for board or credit committees.

Assurances & Boundaries

  • Independent advisory: We do not manufacture or sell materials.
  • No confidential info from prior employers: Clean-room and conflict‑check as needed.
  • No solicitation: We do not solicit customers, suppliers, or employees of any prior employer.
  • Jurisdiction‑aware: We observe territorial and temporal limits of prior agreements.
