Product Development Services —
Cut Time-to-Market by 40%, Scale to $20M.
Full-spectrum product development from industrial design and prototyping to compliance testing and bulk production. OGPS integrates proprietary manufacturing with expert development services — delivering a complete, scalable, and compliant outdoor living product line. One partner across every phase.
From Sketch and Sample
to Scalable Outdoor Hardware.
Working directly from your 3D files, technical drawings, or benchmark samples, our Product Development engineers apply cross-category modular design logic — from benchmark sample to tooling-ready package in as few as 3 revision cycles.
Technical Scoping & Feasibility
We review your 3D CAD, sketches, benchmarks, and budget — then complete gas, water, structural, and logistics risk assessments upfront. Every constraint is mapped before engineering begins, so no costly assumptions carry forward.
Engineering DFM & Costing
Our engineers co-develop tolerance stacks, BOMs, and production drawings across hardware and ecosystem components. Transparent cost models cover tooling, prototyping, lab testing, packaging, and freight — with clear decisions on which lines run in OGPS factories versus trusted partner facilities.
Prototyping & Certification
Functional prototypes are built on OGPS-owned production equipment — not outsourced to remote contract manufacturers. While prototypes iterate across all six product categories, our in-house team prepares CSA/CE test plans and coordinates third-party lab validation.
Mass Production & Continuous Improvement
Mass production launches on validated lines with 100% pre-shipment inspection on core components. Related SKUs launch in parallel under one OGPS-managed schedule, with continuous improvement driven by field feedback and warranty data.
Engineers Who Own
the Production Line.
We don't separate design advice from manufacturing reality. Every material recommendation, tolerance call, and modular alignment decision is made by engineers who run the production line — so what leaves our DFM review can actually be built, certified, and shipped at scale.
Cross-Category Expertise
Gas grills, charcoal cookers, patio furniture, pergolas, garden sheds, and RV water systems — our engineers work across all six categories, applying modular design logic that creates visual coherence and reduces per-unit cost.
Production-Line Engineers
Every material recommendation, tolerance call, and modular alignment decision is made by engineers who run the production line. What leaves the DFM review can actually be built, certified, and shipped at scale.
NNN IP Protection
Proprietary burner geometry, thermal design, and integration logic stays inside OGPS under NNN agreements. Partner factories see only component-level specs — never your full blueprint.
Building First Articles
on Our Own Lines.
Unlike sourcing brokers, we build functional prototypes directly on OGPS-owned production equipment. We iterate on the same lines that will eventually build your final product — charcoal grills, RV water heaters, built-in patio grills, and garden sheds.
Manufacturer-Driven Sourcing
& Ecosystem Integration.
OGPS curates a vetted ecosystem of partner factories — anchored by our own grill and patio manufacturing — to deliver a unified outdoor living solution from a single partner.
Vetted Ecosystem
Every partner factory undergoes on-site audits, capacity verification, and compliance screening — anchored by OGPS-owned grill and patio manufacturing lines.
Unified Design Language
Color, finish, and component interfaces are coordinated across charcoal grills, pergolas, wicker lounges, and propane heaters — one coherent outdoor living collection.
RV & Specialty Integration
For RV clients, voltage, connectors, and mounting patterns are aligned across cooktops, water heaters, and fridges within the same production cycle.
Flat-Pack Engineering.
Density-Optimized Containers.
For bulky outdoor goods, flat-pack engineering and DIM optimization are core development stages — not afterthoughts. Every product is designed for its shipping reality from day one.
Flat-Pack Engineering
Pergola frames nest tightly. Shed panels align for compression. Lounge seats stack efficiently — without compromising assembly strength or consumer experience.
E-Commerce Ready
Drop-test and compression-test compliant cartons for Amazon FBA and DTC. Dimensional weight optimization reduces carrier overages. Brand-ready graphics match your visual identity.
Container Economics
Products and packaging are designed around the heavy/light container mix — grills and heaters as ballast, flat-pack furniture as space fillers. 20–35% FOB freight savings per container.
Transparent Tooling.
Protected IP.
We treat tooling and engineering as strategic co-investments. All costs, schedules, and IP ownership are transparent — so you understand exactly what you're paying for and how it translates into cost per unit.
Shared Tooling Ownership
Co-investment models that reduce upfront outlay while securing your production priority.
NNN-Grade IP Protection
Proprietary designs stay inside OGPS. Partner factories receive only component-level specifications.
Continuous Field-Driven Iteration
Warranty data and installer feedback feed directly into design updates pushed to the next production run.
Product Development
That Delivers.
“OGPS didn't just build our grill — they engineered the entire patio ecosystem around it. Pergolas, lounges, and heaters all coordinated to the same finish spec. Our buyers noticed the difference immediately — 34% higher average basket value in the first season.”
“We came with a sketch and a target COGS. OGPS returned a complete DFM package with three material-grade options, compliance pathways for EU and US, and flat-pack packaging that saved us 22% on freight. From concept to container in 16 weeks.”
Questions About
Product Development.
From concept freeze to production-ready samples: 8–12 weeks for single-SKU programs, 14–18 weeks for multi-category collections. Rush programs can compress to 6–8 weeks on dedicated engineering tracks. The timeline depends primarily on tooling complexity and certification requirements for your target markets.
Yes — certification is integrated into the development process, not retrofitted after. CSA/CE test plans are prepared during the prototyping phase. Third-party lab validation is coordinated by our in-house team. Full documentation packages — material certs, test reports, compliance declarations — ship with every production order.
All engagements begin with a bilateral NDA. For proprietary designs, we offer NNN (Non-Use, Non-Disclosure, Non-Circumvention) agreements. Manufacturing IP — burner geometry, thermal design, integration logic — stays inside OGPS. Partner factories receive only component-level specs.
Yes. Our parallel-track development model handles grills, furniture, pergolas, and storage products concurrently — coordinated through a single program manager. This ensures design coherence, synchronized timelines, and consolidation into shared container loads from the first production run.
