Before you inquire

Frequently Asked Questions
during initial contact.

Answers to the questions we are asked most frequently — before the conversation begins.

How does a typical collaboration work?

We begin with a free initial consultation to clarify your requirements and project parameters. You will then receive a detailed proposal outlining clear project phases—from initial concept to final implementation.

How long does a typical project take?

Project timelines depend heavily on the scope of work. We typically complete tool and fixture construction in 8–16 weeks, automated systems in 4–9 months, and full product development projects in 6 months or more. We define specific dates and binding milestones in our formal proposals.

Which companies are we the right partner for?

We primarily work with Tier 1 suppliers and OEMs in the aerospace, automotive, and industrial sectors—companies with demanding requirements in composites, precision engineering, or automation. Whether you are a mid-sized business or a large corporation, what matters is technical depth, not company size.

Which standards and certifications do we meet?

MICADO is ISO 9001 certified. For aerospace projects, we operate according to EN 9100 compliant processes. Upon request, we provide first article inspection reports, 3.1 material certificates, and project-specific validation documentation.

Do we also work internationally?

Yes — around 60% of our projects are international. Based in Oberlienz (AT), we deliver worldwide, with on-site commissioning and service provided across the EU, North America, and Asia. Our project languages are German and English, and we offer multilingual documentation upon request.
