PERATIM provides independent engineering analysis, design and technical consultancy to solve challenging engineering problems, improve energy efficiency and develop practical solutions. We also undertake R&D, invent and develop new concepts, and take products from early ideas through detailed design and prototyping to production.

When the answer isn't obvious.

When engineering problems seem intractable, the solution often begins with a better understanding of the problem. PERATIM combines engineering judgement, analytical methods, numerical simulation and practical design experience to identify what is happening, understand why it is happening, and develop practical solutions that work.

 

The input required can vary considerably. Sometimes an engineering team simply needs an independent perspective, a first-principles analysis or mathematical modelling to unlock a particular challenge. In other cases, PERATIM can take on a more substantial role involving detailed analysis, simulation, design and development leading onto prototype and production where, if required, we can engage trusted partners, either locally or in China.

 

Academic Rigour · Practical Engineering Experience

PERATIM combines a strong academic foundation with decades of practical, hands-on industrial experience. This unusual breadth allows us to approach difficult problems from different perspectives and draw on methods and solutions from across engineering disciplines.

Bring us your problem or idea.

Think of the engineering problem you haven't been able to solve — or an idea you'd like to explore. Bring it to us. We'll carry out a no-obligation engineering assessment, explore it sufficiently to understand the likely way forward, and tell you whether we think we can help.

 

Where the way forward is uncertain, we work in agreed phases, using the findings from each stage to decide together what comes next. This allows difficult problems to be investigated without committing to a large programme of work before the scope is properly understood. Our focus is always to arrive at a practical solution as efficiently as possible.
