They pushed into a new market with a new auto-sub product. We pushed alongside them.

The first product in a new marketwith our thrusters on it

The client was taking a new product into a market it had never sold into, and its first units had to prove the concept. The thruster was our part of the vehicle. The client stated the performance it needed rather than a specification, and needed prototypes good enough to show the concept worked.

Most of what the thruster needed did not exist off the shelf.

The client set the requirement; we chose the route to it. The propulsion, the housing and the control electronics were designed for the job rather than bought in, and each was proved by test rather than on paper.

Mechanical design, electronics and firmware sat in one team, so when a test result changed one of them, the other two moved with it.

We can't say whose. That's usually true of our best work.
