ABOUT COBIG
Engineering expertise built around your challenge
Cobig helps businesses solve complex engineering problems, develop better products and improve manufacturing performance.
We combine practical engineering experience with a collaborative, flexible approach, giving you the expertise and additional capability needed to move projects forward with confidence.
Practical support that makes a measurable difference
Complex engineering challenges rarely fit neatly into a predefined service.
You may be developing a new product, trying to resolve a technical problem, improving an
existing design or looking for a more efficient way to manufacture something.
Cobig works alongside your team to understand the challenge, identify the right solution and help put it into practice.
Our focus is always on the outcome, whether that means:
- Developing a better product
- Reducing manufacturing cost
- Improving quality or efficiency
- Resolving a technical problem
- Reducing development risk
- Adding engineering expertise or capacity
How we work
Practical
We develop solutions that work in real-world engineering and manufacturing environments.
Collaborative
We work alongside your existing team, manufacturers and suppliers.
Flexible
Support can be provided for a specific problem, a development stage or a wider project.
Outcome-focused
Our success is measured by the improvement we help you achieve, not simply the engineering hours provided.
Clear and honest
We communicate openly, question assumptions and raise potential problems while there is still time to resolve them.
MARK GOODACRE
Founder & Mechanical Design Engineer
Experience you can rely on
Cobig was founded by Mark Goodacre, a mechanical design engineer with more than 15 years of experience across automotive, aerospace, defence and advanced engineering.
Mark’s experience combines product development, mechanical design and practical manufacturing knowledge. This enables Cobig to consider not only how a product should perform, but also how it can be manufactured, assembled and delivered effectively.
Connected engineering and manufacturing capability
Cobig’s partnership with SureSource connects engineering development with established manufacturing, sourcing and supplier capability.
This provides clients with a clearer route from concept to production, while helping manufacturing considerations to be addressed earlier in the development process.
DEFENCE AND MANUFACTURING
Where We Focus
Cobig supports businesses where product performance, engineering quality and manufacturing efficiency matter.
Defence
Supporting companies across the UK defence supply chain with practical engineering and manufacturing expertise.
Manufacturing
Helping manufacturers and engineering businesses develop better products, solve production challenges and improve efficiency.
PROVEN RESULTS
Final fixture design No.1
Exploded CAD animation
46% fewer fixtures
By looking beyond the immediate component and reconsidering the complete manufacturing process, Cobig developed a solution that reduced complexity, lowered cost and released production capacity.
