Independent engineering advisory
KERNAXIS — Independent Engineering Intelligence
Engineering at the centre of complexity.
KERNAXIS creates product concepts, system architectures and practical development plans, and provides independent reviews, technical due diligence and problem solving for complex products and systems.
Independent engineering expertise · international enquiries welcome, including possible US projects
Flagship service
Create a product concept, coherent architecture and development plan from an idea, problem or requirement.
THE PERSPECTIVE
The flagship starts before a design exists: agree the problem, create technical direction and make trade-offs, risks and open questions visible. Independent reviews and due diligence add clarity when a system already exists.
Experienced engineering judgement stays at the centre of the assessment and its recommendations.
A separate technical perspective can help examine design choices, dependencies and assumptions.
Findings are shaped around the decision ahead, with open questions and practical actions made explicit.
SERVICES
Product Concept & Systems Architecture creates direction from an idea. The other areas review existing architecture, assess feasibility against available evidence, or investigate difficult technical problems. Choose and scope each area independently; there is no fixed sequence or bundled package.
The flagship turns an idea, product ambition, technical problem or requirement into a product concept, functional definition, coherent system architecture and practical development plan.
For product teams and engineering firms seeking an independent review of supplied software, embedded or systems architecture documentation and design decisions, including risks and dependencies, scalability, maintainability and integration. Architecture Review is CHF 1,250 for its agreed scope; extra work is separately scoped and quoted.
For product owners, investors, acquirers and organisations evaluating engineering work: assess a product, project, technology approach or development organisation against available evidence; maturity is assessed only where evidence permits. Technical Due Diligence is CHF 2,500 for its agreed scope; other feasibility work is quoted to scope.
For teams facing difficult engineering decisions: investigate a technical question, compare alternatives and develop practical recommendations. Engineering Triage is CHF 350 for a 60–90 minute initial assessment, not a complete solution; further work is scoped and quoted separately.
APPROACH
Agree the technical question, the material to review and the boundaries of the work.
Review the relevant information and consider architecture, interfaces, dependencies and constraints.
Receive a written assessment or summary that identifies findings, unresolved questions and recommendations.
NEXT STEP
Share a concise, non-confidential outline of the technical question. The next step is an enquiry, not an automatic booking or commitment.
