Technical Consulting

Instrumentation and experiments for science are by their very nature innovative and are developed and built in the presence of much uncertainty. Magna Parva collates requirements and understands the scientific intent prior to embarking on developments that may see extreme levels of challenge and change.

The behaviour, performance and integration difficulties of fundamental and particle physics experiments such as CLOVER and MICE are being addressed for the first time. The whole team share the implications of each design decision and test result with an eye to the ultimate prize – a new insight into the way the Universe works.

The engineering know-how of Magna Parva covers innovative concept generation, detailed design, development, testing, integration and qualification of hardware during the entire project lifecycle. A stringent project management procedure is adhered to, including a standardised schedule format. This methodology has gained the confidence of National and International agencies to ensure milestone deliveries are met and the project team is working in an aligned and optimal manner, flexible and responsive to the needs of the customer.

For our technology partners, including those who are outsourcing their R&D, we typically provide these services:

• Research
• Design and development
• Thermal, mechanical and electromagnetic analysis
• Prototyping and manufacturing
• Testing and validation
• Systems engineering
• Project management
• Engineering project management

The techniques we have developed and proved in delivering critical space technologies are harnessed to manage the risk of our highly innovative approaches. Our engineers and scientists provide solutions to today’s toughest challenges.
