Quality Assurance:
Ultimus Engineering understands the paramount importance of maintaining high-quality standards. We tackle quality concerns head on by meticulously selecting our engineering teams. Our engineers (and even the Founder) are licensed professional engineers in their respective domains. Our rigorous recruitment process, thorough technical assessments, and stringent internal quality control procedures ensure that our engineers possess the necessary expertise, attention to detail, and commitment to delivering outstanding results. Not many firms can say that their engineers must pass a test to get through the interview! We also maintain open lines of communication, foster collaboration, and encourage regular feedback with our internal, and external customers, to continuously improve our service quality.

Effective Communication:
Effective communication in engineering projects is the most reliable way to insure a project’s success. Ultimus Engineering takes a proactive approach to bridge any communication gaps that may arise due to language barriers or geographical differences. Starting with a focused approach to the “Made in America” mentality, your engineers are available for direct communication. Our preferred drafting program even lets you watch your designers work in real time and make comments directly on the models. While we utilize dedicated project managers for some projects, we prefer to have our customers communicate directly with the engineers and designers to ensure smooth information flow and prompt resolution of any communication challenges.
?
Intellectual Property Protection:
At Ultimus Engineering, we place the utmost importance on safeguarding our clients' intellectual property and maintaining strict confidentiality. We establish comprehensive non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) and intellectual property protection clauses with our clients, providing them with the assurance that their sensitive information and proprietary knowledge remain secure. We adhere to robust data security measures, implement restricted access controls, maintain cyber security insurance policies, and foster a culture of confidentiality within our organization. Our commitment to data protection and privacy ensures that clients can trust us with their valuable intellectual assets. Whether you prefer to use your own NDA or ours, your IP is guaranteed to be kept safe.
