How RpProto Bridges the Gap Between Design and Manufacturing.

Bringing a product to market may be a lengthy process. Even if you have the perfect design on paper, translating it into a practical thing is a significant leap. One cannot just give over a plan to a manufacturer and hope that everything works out perfectly. The gap between design and production is large, and it includes determining exactly how the design should and should be made before putting it in the hands of the manufacturer. Make the plunge too soon and with insufficient planning, and the consequences might be disastrous. If key responsibilities are delegated to a non-expert, the product's prospects of success may suffer.
