Pilot builds
PVT lots with sellable intent and documented limits.
Hardware Form / New Product Introduction
Direct engineering + manufacturing
New Product Introduction
A controlled path from validated design to repeatable production.
What NPI means here
NPI (new product introduction) is the controlled transition from a validated design to repeatable production: pilot builds, line test, yield analysis, and ramp. Hardware Form runs NPI on the same factory relationship that built your EVT units.
See EVT vs DVT vs PVT and testing and quality.
Test coverage
EOL sequences aligned with EVT/DVT evidence.
Yield analysis
Feedback to engineering without a translation layer.
Ramp control
Volume increases with quality gates—not hope.
