Engineering Solutions
Project Execution Across the Full Product Lifecycle

Engineering & Analysis
Belcan manages one of the largest analysis teams in the U.S, with support for clients worldwide. Our comprehensive range of analytical capabilities is unmatched in the consulting industry—from structural and statistical analysis to computational fluid dynamics and analysis of software/control systems.

Modeling & Detailing
Engineering has been Belcan’s core business for over 60 years, which has helped us acquire some of the best design engineers in the industry. Our cross-industry capabilities and deep knowledge of commercial tools make us a valuable asset in the modeling process. We’ll work alongside you seamlessly as an extension of your team, utilizing your industry standards and codes.

Value Engineering
Through value engineering analysis, Belcan helps reduce lifecycle costs while maintaining quality, safety, and reliability. Belcan’s value engineering group works closely with supply chain management resources to provide the right solutions for your business needs. We excel in design for manufacturing and cost out initiatives for both new and legacy products.

Prototyping
We turn your vision into reality. No matter what the challenge is, our plastic, aerospace, or mechanical engineers can take your design from a prototype to a fully functioning product.

Testing
Testing ensures that great ideas become great finished products, which is why Belcan supports a range of testing modalities: from simulation testing to lab-based and physical testing, including aircraft flight testing. From components and systems, to complete products, we work with you to fulfill all of your testing needs. Learn more about our Test Systems capabilities.

Certification
Safety and compliance matter to Belcan, which is why we employ industry experts who will help you meet and even exceed the standards of regulatory bodies like the FAA, FDA, and others. We can also help you obtain a range of industry certifications, including ISO and NIST.

Product Support
Belcan’s product support engineers cover several industries, including aviation, rail, energy, oil, automotive and heavy equipment. We provide comprehensive MRO support to OEMs and equipment operators in the area of asset optimization, including supply chain optimization and intelligent analytics, which reduces shop visits and unplanned events.

Obsolescence Management
As new technologies and inventions emerge, others become obsolete. Proactively addressing obsolescence costs less and exposes you to less risk than a last-minute redesign. Belcan employs obsolescence experts who can help you minimize the financial impact of obsolescence by using analytics to optimize your inventory and evaluating families of parts for standardization purposes.

Technical Inspection
Belcan provides field engineering services to monitor complex equipment in service. Through state-of-the-art analytics, we monitor equipment remotely, examine trends, and predict failures in order to minimize down time.

Requirements & Analysis
Establishing system specifications and requirements is critical to the success of your new product. Belcan’s requirements analysis, system design, and aftermarket support will accelerate your time-to-market while ensuring continued improvement over the product life cycle.

Architecture & Design
At Belcan, we have extensive experience developing large systems. Regardless of scale, we can help you create a unifying architecture and identify and correct problems that emerge early on in the design process. Our software engineers are experts at finding solutions that lead to cost-effective, accelerated testing of complex industrial systems.

Software Engineering
Our team includes some of the most experienced members of the software engineering community. We can provide on-site staff augmentation, off-site work package/subsystem development, or complete stand-alone system development with oversight and minimal customer overhead.

Verification & Validation
Belcan’s verification and validation procedures ensure we meet all needed specifications, including the most important ones—your expectations. Meeting critical verification and validation milestones without compromising quality is a key enabler for ensuring rapid certification of aerospace, automotive and industrial products.

Lab & Field Testing
Our highly experienced professionals utilize proven processes and tools to ensure testing integrity. We believe top quality execution of both lab and field test plans will ensure the integrity of key systems and bring you confidence.

Enterprise Integration
Over time, systems can grow in complexity. Belcan’s integration approach includes early warning alerts about your network’s health that can mean the difference between profit and loss.

Product Support
Whether it is legacy products, current products, upgrades, routine or proactive maintenance, Belcan has the custom support solution to meet your needs. Our highly-trained associates use proven tools and processes to provide post-release support for products via streamlined MRO solutions.

Supply Chain Support
With a legacy of comprehensive design engineering experience, we have the unique ability to combine manufacturing engineering and supply chain management support with component-based engineering knowledge in order to deliver integrated solutions to our clients.

Predictive / Prescriptive Maintenance
Belcan has extensive experience in preventing or mitigating damage to expensive and safety-critical products. Predictive and prescriptive maintenance solutions reduce overall maintenance costs while maintaining reliability, sustains productivity and minimizes downtime.

Belcan offers Service Level Agreements (SLA) for the on-site repair and maintenance of equipment. Learn about our full Test Systems Capabilities.

Systems Engineering
Belcan’s test systems team supports requirements development and allocation, system architecture definition and certification planning for test systems, avionics, and controls systems. We also provide full test system design (SRU, LRU, ESS, ATP-level), cable and harness design, fabrication, and testing (rapid build production; braiding; hot stamp; ultrasonic welding).

Hardware Engineering (DO-254 Compliant)
With full life cycle development capabilities ranging from requirements to rapid prototyping approaches, we strive to achieve results quickly and consistently according to customer requirements. Our expert engineers provide solutions involving electrical/circuit design, test, and build; schematic capture and PCB board layout; electrical/circuit thermal, sneak circuit and worst-case analysis (WCA), and much more, including custom solutions.

Mechanical Engineering (DO-254 Compliant)
With extensive experience with 2D and 3D mechanical design and fabrication (rack, enclosures, fixtures, cables and wire harness) and mechanical analysis (modal, shock, vibe, thermal, static, dynamic, among others), Belcan’s mechanical engineers can support customers in-house or onsite.

Software Engineering (DO-254 Compliant)
We offer complete software design and development services (full stack test systems; embedded, performant, controls, and real-time systems; Web Services/.NET, database design and implementation) within various environments (e.g. Visual Studio, Eclipse, Java, MULTI, C#/C++/C, NI Teststand, LabView, Veristand, SQL, stored procedures). Belcan’s expert software engineers use Scrum/Agile-based techniques support full life cycle development, from requirements, to implementation and testing, to release. Our facilities operate in compliance with DO-178C, offering independent design verification as well as validation services.
