About Us
We are a product development team located on the campus at Boise State University. We work with entrepreneurs, start-ups, and established companies from within a variety of industries on projects of all sizes. Since 2001, we have specialized in concept development, design engineering, prototyping solutions, and design for manufacturing.

What Makes Us Unique?
Our clients participate in the design process. We encourage clients to sit in on design and modeling sessions to offer input and get immediate feedback as we design your product. Whether you are a subject matter expert looking to add to the design process, or you are new to the process and would like to learn more, this approach allows us to stay closely connected during the design process.

Every component of Butter Bay production benefits American Workers- from design to manufacturing to packaging. By creating Butter Bay, we lived the American Dream. We took an existing concept, made it better for our customers, and created American jobs, providing those involved an opportunity to make a fair and reasonable profit. What could be better than that?
.Export Excellence gave me the opportunity to develop working relationships with some of the top Export Professionals in Idaho and to fine tune our process for evaluating and developing export opportunities that will guide future export expansion activities of PCS."
"TechHelp has been a valuable asset to our business model. The organization has helped BOB Trailers improve in many ways and has certainly pro vided stimulus to the economy by helping us shorten our product development cycle and speed new products to market.”
“Export Excellence was instrumental in the growth and success of our International business. Through the program we were able to identify opportunities, find ways to limit our risk, and cultivate an action plan for entering new markets. Our export business has doubled in a very short period of time and continues to grow month after month. It is now the most profitable part of our business.”
“The folks at the New Product Development Lab at Boise State were great. They are passionate about their work and have good heads on their shoulders. Everything we needed was done with great pride and accomplishment”
"In the early stages of our business, our relationship with TechHelp was critical to getting SGW Designworks off the ground. Without TechHelp, SGW would not be where it is today.”
“Taking part in Export Excellence was one of the best decisions we made. The support and wealth of information from coaches was priceless. Thanks!”

The President dropped in to our non-descript Lab on the 4th floor of the Micron Engineering Building to see how Boise State Mechanical Engineering Students (and TechHelp employees) were helping Idaho inventors turn their ideas into consumer products.
