Hardware Failures rarely come from Lack of Effort — they come from Unmanaged RISK.
At Teq Diligent, PROCESS is how we MANAGE RISK.
We promise discipline, accountability and predictability.
Hardware Programs struggles when:
✘ Requirements are incomplete or ambiguous
✘ Architecture decisions are rushed
✘ High-speed and EMI risks surface too late
✘ Firmware and hardware are developed in isolation
✘ Validation is treated as a final step
✘ Certification readiness is assumed, not engineered
Our Philosophy
Reliable products are built through diligence — not shortcuts
Every phase of our process emphasizes: Clear ownership | Structured reviews | Early Validations | Risk identification & mitigation | Manufacturing & certification awareness.
Our goal is simple - Reduce Uncertainty and build dependable products
Teq Diligent Development Process
We don’t just design PCBs; we engineer certified, high-performance physical products.
1. Definition & Feasibility
Establishing a clear and realistic foundation
We begin by understanding what must be built — and what could go wrong
What we do:
✔ Requirements and use-case analysis
✔ Environmental and regulatory considerations
✔ Platform and component feasibility
✔ System architecture options
✔ Preliminary BOM and cost outlook
✔ Mechanical and enclosure constraints
✔ Firmware feasibility assessment
Risk Reduced:
✄ Incorrect Platform Selection
✄ Unclear Requirements
✄ Late Architectural changes
2.
Planning & Governance
Creating predictability and accountability
Strong engineering needs strong governance
What we do:
✔ Project plan with milestones and reviews
✔ Defined communication and escalation paths
✔ Single point of accountability
✔ Requirement traceability and change control
Risk Reduced:
✄ Schedule surprises
✄ Scope ambiguity
✄ Communication gaps
3.
Detailed Design & Simulation
Reducing technical risk before fabrication
Design decisions are validated before they become expensive
What we do:
✔ Schematic design with peer reviews
✔ High-speed PCB layout (DDR, PCIe, USB, MIPI, etc.)
✔ Signal and power integrity checks
✔ Thermal considerations
✔ Firmware architecture & early driver work
✔ Mechanical developments
Risk Reduced:
✄ Signal integrity issues
✄ Thermal Failures
✄ EMI/EMC design weakness
4.
Prototyping & Bring-up
Validating assumptions on real hardware
Prototypes are built to reflect production intent.
What we do:
✔ Controlled PCB fabrication and assembly
✔ Visual and workmanship inspections
✔ Power-up and rail validation
✔ Processor bring-up and peripheral checks
✔ Parallel firmware development and debugging
Risk Reduced:
✄ Assembly related issues
✄ Design Issues
✄ Power related issues
5.
Functional & Field Validation
Confirming behavior under real operating conditions
Prototypes validations to check the design intent.
What we do:
✔ Functional testing against requirements
✔ Firmware–hardware integration validation
✔ Edge-case and corner-case testing
✔ Issue tracking and resolution
Risk Reduced:
✄ Functional gaps
✄ Unpredictable behaviors
6.
Environmental & Pre-Compliance Validation
Preparing the product for certification and real-world use
Prototypes validations to check the certification readiness.
What we do:
✔ EMI/EMC pre-compliance checks
✔ Surge, ESD, EFT evaluations
✔ Thermal stress testing
✔ Reliability and endurance testing
Risk Reduced:
✄ Certification failures
✄ Costly redesigns for certifications
7.
Acceptance, Pilot & Certification Support
Bridging Engineering and Production
Design transfer to manufacturing in agreement with all stakeholders.
What we do:
✔ Acceptance testing with stakeholders
✔ Design refinements from validation feedback
✔ Pilot builds (EVT / DVT / PVT)
✔ Certification lab coordination and support
✔ Production documentation handover
Risk Reduced:
✄ Manufacturing instability
✄ Yield issues during production
