Design Verification and Prototype Testing Partner Needed for Handheld Device

A hardware development team is seeking an engineering and test partner to support design verification of a rugged handheld electronic device. The scope includes test-plan development, fixture design, prototype testing, failure analysis and recommendations before pilot production.

The partner should review product requirements and existing prototypes, identify gaps and execute mechanical, environmental and usability-related testing. Proposals should identify test capabilities, equipment, engineering hours, fixture costs, schedule, reporting and support for design iterations and retesting.

Testing may include drop, vibration, temperature cycling, ingress screening, connector durability, button life and basic enclosure strength. Methods, sample quantities, acceptance criteria and limitations must be agreed before testing. All failures require documented conditions, evidence and analysis. Test data, photographs, fixture files and final reports must be delivered to the buyer, and confidential designs must be protected.
