Aerospace Engineering Consulting | Fixture Design, GSE & AS9100 Documentation
Most fixture and tooling problems aren’t really hardware problems they’re engineering problems that showed up late. We engage at the design stage, the requirements stage, or the firefighting stage, and we bring 13 years of aerospace supply chain experience to every engagement. Whether you need a complete fixture system designed from scratch, GSE developed for a launch program, or AS9100 documentation built for a supplier audit, this is the service that covers it.
What We Deliver
Fixture System Design
Complete fixture design from requirements capture to released SolidWorks drawings. Datum structure, interface geometry, tolerance stack-up, and configuration documentation included. Deliverable: Released drawing package with BOM.
AS9100 Documentation Packages
First article inspection plans, inspection traveler documents, drawing revision control, and supplier qualification support. Deliverable: Complete AS9100-aligned documentation set ready for customer or audit review.
Technical Sales Support
Engineering support for your customer-facing team RFQ responses, technical proposal writing, application engineering. Deliverable: Customer-ready technical documents and proposal packages.
Ground Support Equipment (GSE) Development
GSE design for space launch, aerospace assembly, and test operations. Cart systems, handling fixtures, integration tooling, and transport interfaces. Deliverable: SolidWorks assembly, BOM, work instructions.
Supplier Coordination & Quality Oversight
Engineering oversight of your manufacturing supply chain supplier qualification, drawing review, first article coordination, and non-conformance resolution. Deliverable: Documented quality records and corrective action logs.
Engagement Models
Project-Based
Defined scope, fixed deliverables, clear timeline. Best for: new fixture system design, GSE development, documentation packages, one-time engineering support. Typical range: $2,500–$15,000 depending on scope. Contact us for a project quote.
Monthly Retainer
Ongoing engineering support with a reserved block of hours per month. Best for: growing aerospace startups, Tier 2/3 suppliers who need engineering depth without a full-time hire, programs requiring sustained documentation control. Starting at $2,000/month. Contact us to discuss scope.
Who This Is For
Manufacturing engineers at aerospace Tier 2/3 suppliers who need fixture documentation for customer audits
Program managers at space launch companies who need GSE designed and delivered on a compressed schedule
Founders and engineering leads at aerospace startups who need senior engineering support without the headcount
Procurement teams who need a technical interface between their engineering requirements and their manufacturing supply chain
