The Re:Build DAPR team is structured to tackle multidisciplinary, high-complexity engineering problems with a commitment to technical excellence, collaboration, and customer success.
Re:Build DAPR’s Project Lifecycle Process is more than a workflow, it is a proven methodology designed to de-risk innovation and accelerate commercialization. Unlike conventional engineering approaches, our structured stage-gated process ensures that every project moves forward with technical confidence, cost efficiency, and a clear path to scalable manufacturing.
We collaborate with clients to define project goals, technical requirements, and feasibility. This phase involves early-stage research, risk assessment, and concept exploration to ensure a solid foundation for development.
A clear project scope is critical to success. We develop detailed proposals, cost estimates, and project timelines, ensuring alignment between technical feasibility, business objectives, and manufacturability goals.
Our team refines early-stage designs, validates key concepts, and assesses manufacturability. Engineering simulations, feasibility studies, and system modeling help shape scalable, high-performance solutions.
We establish detailed system architecture, CAD models, and initial technical calculations to optimize performance, efficiency, and real-world application. Design iterations and validation occur in parallel to minimize risk.
Our team finalizes engineering drawings, electrical schematics, and subsystem integration plans, ensuring that designs are ready for manufacturing. This phase includes Design for Manufacturability (DFM) assessments to optimize cost and scalability.
We ensure the right components, materials, and suppliers are aligned for production. By integrating supply chain strategies with engineering decisions, we optimize cost, scalability, and lead times.
Our experts handle manufacturing, assembly, and system integration, followed by rigorous Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT). This ensures that products meet specifications before deployment.
We support on-site installation, Site Acceptance Testing (SAT), and real-world validation. This ensures smooth integration into customer operations, minimizing disruption and maximizing reliability.
Our partnership doesn’t end at deployment. We provide ongoing performance monitoring, troubleshooting, and iterative improvements, ensuring long-term system reliability and efficiency.
We work with clients to identify process optimizations, develop second-generation designs, and scale manufacturing capacity to support long-term growth and evolving industry needs.
We are a leading provider of advanced composite manufacturing solutions, with a strong track record of innovation and quality across multiple industries. Since its founding in 1992, the company has expanded its capabilities to serve sectors ranging from aerospace and defense to medical devices and automotive.
2014
DAPR Engineering was founded by Steven Garrant and Keith Vaillancourt with a mission to solve complex, physics-driven engineering challenges.
2015
Welcomed the first employees and relocated to an 8,000-square-foot facility to accommodate a growing team and project demand.
2017
Strengthened expertise in custom automation and industrial equipment development, positioning DAPR as a go-to partner for turnkey solutions.
2019
Following continued success and expanding project scope, DAPR moved into a 20,000-square-foot facility, enabling greater capacity for larger, more complex programs.
2021
