Create Optimal Production Outcomes with Early Supplier Involvement (ESI)
Early collaboration between your product design engineers and moldmakers will lead to the highest-quality tooling for your Pharma, Diagnostics or MedTech components and products. At MGS, we understand the criticality of this collaboration and seamlessly bring teams together to create alignment from the start to avoid costly setbacks throughout the engineering and manufacturing process. Whether you have an internal design team, or need support from our experienced product development experts, we work with you to accelerate success through proper analysis, documentation and communication.
Design for Manufacturability (DFM) Review
Working closely with our customers and our product design and development teams, we build understanding of your product’s functionality, materials, mechanical behavior, thermal behavior, chemical resistance, cosmetic implications and tolerance levels. We are focused on identifying and overcoming any potential challenges in your part design, material selection or manufacturing process early – helping you to move quickly through the development, validation and launch process.
Report of Findings
At the end of the process, we deliver a proprietary DFM/ESI report that includes results from filling and cooling simulation in MoldFlow, FEA and Molded-Part Validation. These detailed reports highlight identified potential product- and process-related challenges, and thus ensure that a robust and fully functional design specification is completed before work begins on production tooling.

We offer unmatched tooling capacity worldwide to better serve our customers exactly where they are. Through decades of building this expertise in both North America and Europe, we have built a deep understanding of the requirements for manufacturing complex injection molded components and products. We use these insights to give our customers confidence in their designs while guiding product and process optimization.
We offer three types of ESI reports to fit your needs:
