We work across industries like medical, cleantech, military, biotech, analytical instruments and AI — solving the toughest technical challenges and bringing high-performance products to life.

Know a company or project that could use a partner like us? 
Refer them and earn a % of the signed contract (up to $100K). 

“Prior to Presco’s involvement, we had attempted the project with two different design teams (comprised of very experienced PhD and MS level engineers and scientist) without success.

Presco devised solutions that produced an extremely accurate and stable display. Their work has been a valuable asset for numerous product generations.“

— Art Minich, VP Engineering Microvision Corp.

How the Presco Referral Program Works

Refer a company or project that needs high-reliability engineering or manufacturing.

If a contract is signed, you earn a referral commission — up to $100K — over the client’s first two years with us.

Your first payment is issued 30 days after the client’s first project payment. 

  • The Presco Referral Program is open to both individuals and businesses — and is designed to create new opportunities for collaboration. 

     Individuals 

    • Earn up to $100K in referral commissions 

    • Retired engineer or advisor? If you have relevant expertise, you may be invited to join the project on a contract basis — flexible, part-time, and engaging work 

    • Contractor or consultant? You’ll receive first right of refusal to provide engineering services on the projects you bring in 

     Businesses 

    • Earn up to $100K by referring clients who need engineering or manufacturing support 

    • Contract manufacturer? We’ll offer you first right of refusal on the manufacturing side of any referral you bring in — and you still get the fee even if another firm is chosen.

  • We pay:

    • 5% of engineering sales 

    • 3% of manufacturing sales 

    …for the first two years of the referred client’s engagement.

    Example:

    If a client you refer signs on for $800,000 in engineering ($40,000) and $2 million in manufacturing ($60,000), your referral payout would be $100,000 — the program’s cap. 

  • Share a company name and a contact — and we’ll take it from there. 

    We’ll follow up with a quick 15-minute call to walk you through the program. No pressure, no hard sell.

$725M Success Story

How to Succeed with Product Development Outsourcing

CASE STUDY: ION TORRENT DNA SEQUENCER

FROM NAPKIN SKETCH TO ACQUISITION

Invented by engineer and entrepreneur Jonathan Rothberg, the Ion Torrent DNA Sequencer is a sensor that directly reads individuals’ DNA. In two hours, the device can read 10 million letters of genetic code with a high degree of accuracy. The Ion Torrent sells at a fraction of the cost of other DNA scanners on the market meaning, for the first time, every scientist, local hospital, and college will be able to afford one. 

At the time of Rothberg’s invention there was a single dominant player in DNA sequencing, with several other companies developing new technologies that could launch at any time.

Determined to get to market first, Rothberg chose to outsource with Presco. Our experienced team successfully:

  • Engineered data acquisition and microfluidics controls on an aggressive timeline

  • Maintained project secrecy: Presco did not know the specific application

  • Anticipated and simulated negative effects of electronic noise and addressed it with changes to circuit architecture

  • Delivered fully functioning, first in the world electronics in just five months, allowing Ion Torrent to prove their theory of operation, testing, and speed to market

  • Manufactured the first 200 sets of electronics, then moved production smoothly to Ion Torrent’s facility

A FEW MONTHS LATER, ION TORRENT WAS ACQUIRED FOR APPROXIMATELY $725M 

Outsourcing with Presco allowed Ion Torrent to focus on its core skills in molecular biology rather than spending months building a highly competent electronics team and losing the race to market.
