Sondrel launches Outsourced Design Teams service

Engagements can be as simple as one engineer for a few weeks to a complete team of, for example, a dozen for many months.

Paul Martin, Director of Field Engineering and Customer Technology at Sondrel, explained: “It’s really difficult finding skilled engineers at the moment especially for Design and Verification. A whole chip project could be at risk of falling behind schedule due to a skills shortage that could have severe financial repercussions. You could use an agency and assemble a team but that needs a lot of people and management time as they are an unproven team. We have much simpler option for customers. Sondrel’s Outsourced Design Teams are drawn from our pool of over 100 skilled and experienced engineers that have worked for us for years and, more importantly, worked together in teams so that they can hit the ground running from day one. We hand pick the members of the team so that it exactly meets the customer’s skills requirement and manage them so that expectations are met, milestones are achieved, and all aspects of people management are handled by us so that the customer can focus on the other aspects of the project.”

Sondrel’s secure and sophisticated remote working arrangements enables the company to assemble teams that are made up from engineers in any of its design centres around the world to ensure that the most suitable engineers are used irrespective of their geographical location.

“Importantly, as one of Europe’s leading design and supply companies we are renowned for our digital design capabilities built up over the past twenty years so customers know we always deliver. Effectively they are tapping into the Sondrel design DNA,” adds Martin.
