Welcome,
We are International Product Consultants.

Assisting new and mature companies determine and achieve their product development, manufacturing, and business goals.

What we do...

For critical "time to market" products, Bill Evans and his international colleagues provide the technical expertise and program management for product development from any step in the process, including from concept, to secured manufacturing and distribution. Over the years, TECHMAN/KANATA, has become known as the skill and experience "between a design and a great product". With over 35 years of product experience, Bill assembles a highly competent team of professionals to achieve the client's global product requirements.

Bill Evans' business and senior management background also affords clients experience in enterprise development and management, complex contract negotiations, vendor reconciliation and management, and technology/product/operations acquisitions. Prior to undertaking product development clients should consider alternative means to bringing product to market, such as licensing and joint ventures. If an alternative is the best means to market we provide planning, product make ready, joint venture/licensee search and qualification, contract negotiations, and ongoing support.

Foreign based companies bringing product to the North American (NA) market look to us to localize the design, re-design for regulatory review, and to secure regulatory compliance. We provide vendor sourcing, supply analysis, and supplier reconciliation and on site management. We assist in joint venture and partnership development, negotiations, and management.

TECHMAN/KANATA works to minimize costs, maximize savings, and with minimal disruption to the client and its operations. We bring pertinent skills and experience to all projects and therefore we are not learning our skills on the client's dollar. Involving our skills and experience helps assure that our client's product development, manufacturing, operations, and financial goals are met.
