You need authoritative intelligence on how your technology will compete in the commercial market. What are the competing industrial processes? Who are the major players? What’s emerging? You need answers from engineers who understand the real-world implications of scale-up and how your tech will compare against incumbents.
We conduct research into the established commercial-scale processes in your technology area: methods, key players, operating parameters, product specs, and emerging alternatives. You get professional technical intelligence from process engineers in 2 weeks, providing the foundation you need for confident decisions.
All work directed and reviewed by an experienced process engineer with deep industry knowledge
20-30 credible sources: papers, patents, industry reports, and public disclosures
8-12 page referenced report organized for decision-making
Clarifications and corrections included
Price includes kickoff meeting, mid-point check-in, and final review meeting
Your technical landscape review answers up to 3 related research questions about commercial-scale industrial processes and established industry practice. We will define the research questions before the engagement, then refine them in the kickoff meeting.
Research questions typically address:
SPECIFICATIONS
Scope & limitations: All Launch deliverables are conceptual-level engineering suitable for study purposes, strategic planning, and investor communications. Work is not for construction, regulatory submission, or detailed design.
Delivery: Standard delivery is 2 weeks from the project initiation meeting. Project initiation date is subject to availability and will be communicated prior to confirming the engagement. Timeline begins when client provides all required inputs (specified per service) and the initiation meeting is held. One round of revisions included based on clarifications or corrections; scope changes constitute new work. All work is executed and delivered remotely.
Client responsibilities: Client must provide: (1) technical information about their process/technology, (2) available data, flow rates, or ranges, (3) designated point of contact for technical questions, (4) timely feedback on drafts (48-hour response time required to maintain schedule).
Intellectual property: All client technology and information remains client property. Lydium grants client full license to use deliverables for any business purpose. Lydium retains the right to use non-confidential methodologies and templates for other projects.
Non-editable digital files: All deliverables are provided as non-editable digital files unless specifically described otherwise in the service description or if purchased separately.
Pricing: Pricing valid for 30 days from quote date. Price includes all meetings, work, and one revision round. Additional revisions or scope expansion available at standard hourly rates.
Exclusions: Launch pricing excludes: regulatory submissions, stamped/sealed drawings, construction documents, multiple scenarios (unless specified), extensive sensitivity analysis, attendance at third-party meetings, travel, or integration with client’s existing engineering documents.
