Development Phases
E-Bl’s progressive work process will be divided Into the following phases: Pre-Design, Phase 1, and Phase 2.
a. | Pre-Design: Status and Goal |
During this phase, E-BI works with the client to set the objectives, product requirements, and specifications for the structure reverse design, re-design, engineering, and build program to pursue.
Phase 1 work will only begin after a design direction proposed post pre-design has been approved by the client.
b. | Phase 1: Product Structure Reverse Engineering and Design |
This phase focuses on mechanical structure reverse engineering, design, BOM completion, and engineering.
Work includes the following:
a. | Mechanical structure reverse engineering |
b. | Redesign for enclosure of fill station and laundry unit and Ice unit |
c. | BOM build |
d. | Design review |
c. | Phase 2: Prototyping and Validation |
This phase focuses on final prototype creation. The prototype(s) will be based on Phase 1 results, and will be made for validation and testing purposes (as noted per the below Project Operation Summary). Phase 2 also includes Bill of Material analysis, design for manufacturing (DFM) study, and design for cost (DFC) study.
The conclusion of Phase 2 results in an approved design and complete manufacturing specifications.

The previous project operation summary covers reasonable, manufacturing job-related work based on established industry practices as agreed upon by E-BI and the client at the time of this quote. This summary is not comprehensive, nor does it include specific fee costs, as the exact cost breakdown is unpredictable at this time.
Any prototypes produced per Category 3000 are intended to verify product concepts only. Functional prototypes are NOT to be used for full product testing, or otherwise expected to perform per the requirements of finished goods.
Any tests implemented per Category 4000 will be performed at a level deemed appropriate with respect to the project requirements.
After ratifying this quote, further client-requested requirements (e.g. specific product R&D work, engineering, evaluation, additional testing, additional QA/QC requirements, additional certifications, etc.) may result in additional fees.
