Who We Are
Curt Deckert Associates, Inc. (CDA) is an organization of highly qualified and innovative R&D consultants specializing in optics, light and imaging technologies.
We can augment the existing engineering resources of an established
company, or serve as the engineering department of a small company. We
can take on a project from market research and product specification
through, optical design, prototypes, documentation, and planning for
manufacturing. Please check out our range of competitive R&D services.
We are located in the heart of Orange County, California, but
are prepared to serve clients worldwide. We can limit our activities to
the optical subsystem of a project, or in some cases, take on the
entire the project. We have the required technical and management
expertise, plus access to specialized technical resources. Check out
the qualifications of Curt Deckert and our Associates. CDA has served more than 120 companies since our founding in 1976. Our client feedback is excellent.
We are known for our creative and competitive cost-effective consulting
and our practical, manufacturable designs. We use existing commercial
parts whenever possible to avoid expensive tooling.
Working with CDA
Curt Deckert Associates works on a project
basis to serve client needs as quickly and as effectively as possible.
We will work closely with your in-house staff since they have important
ideas and know your firm's technical and manufacturing capabilities.
Typically, we perform a preliminary analysis of problems on new
projects and propose an approach to solving them. During the early
design or prototype stages before a client tools up for manufacturing,
we may point out problems with respect to manufacturability or
marketability. Our innovative consulting has detected product or market
deficiencies, thereby saving our clients considerable unnecessary
expense.
We are prepared to help you accomplish your difficult and demanding
goals in technology with confidentiality and, of course, we stand
behind our work.
Ethics & Confidentiality
Curt Deckert Associates will only take on
projects which promise to benefit the client beyond the fees charged.
We are also eager to serve you when you need an outside, objective
R&D opinion, or when there are technical problems which cannot be
solved internally in a timely manner.
Specific references and resumes will be furnished to prospective
clients on request. We adhere to a code of ethics which requires strict
confidence between the client and us in accordance with standards of
the Institute of Management Consultants (IMC) and other professional organizations.
We keep each client's work confidential except when disclosure is
specifically permitted. Patent rights and designs are typically
transferred to the client.
