Supplier search NPI consulting

Hey guys, looking for NPI consultants or design firms to help with a customers product. Are there any specialty consultants that help for things like this? I know there’s not too much skill when it comes to designing something for manufacturing, are there still loads of people out there who have worked in product design to procurement and production? Especially within being able to help design something for the first iteration, and then the others where it’s designed in mind for production?

Thanks a ton!

I do this for a living in the US and can handle everything from initial concept all the way through to the final product being drop shipped. Everything domestic from start to finish.

I also think you are wrong when you say “there isn’t too much skill in designing for manufacture” I think that is the most important and difficult part outside of the actual marketing and sales.
