Save on costs - let us be your outsourced engineering team

Trailride can help your startup thrive!  As an entrepreneur, the main goal for your new business is striking the right balance of growth and investing wisely in the proper resources.  We often talk to potential clients who have established a new business and need engineering support, but aren't necessarily at the right stage to hire a full-time staff of engineers.  

Save on overhead and use us as your engineering department!  With our available CAD tools and remote connectivity, we can integrate seamlessly as a critical part of your team - from anywhere.  With a traditional engineering team, you pay for the full cost - regardless of how much work is actually performed or needed.  Every month, you will need to:

• Pay salary and taxes
• Pay any benefits offered
• Maintain CAD licenses
• Keep equipment (computers, etc) up to date

What we offer is the ability to have an engineering team, while only paying for it when you need it.  You don't need to worry about paying for CAD licenses or high-end CAD workstations; with our tools, we can easily share the 3D models with you (even if you don't have CAD software) and you can follow right along with us as the project moves forward.  You will be able to physically see the models, and request changes as necessary.  

Achieve results and grow your business faster with Trailride!

Flexibility in how we work together

We offer a high degree of flexibility in how work is billed and performed.  Our remote-capable tools mean we are available anywhere there is an Internet connection.  Additionally, we offer a few different options for billing:

• Hourly - we will agree upon a rate before any work gets started, and will only bill for the hours we spend on your project.  This is a great option for when workload varies from month-to-month.  Only pay for what you use.
• Fixed price - if there is a general scope of work and timeline already outlined and in place, it is often best to shift to a fixed price, project-based structure.  With this you will know exactly what your costs are, and what you will be getting.
  • We can also lead material procurement, prototype builds, etc, with a fixed price + materials contract.
