We design, build, and ship complex hardware that holds up in the real world

"Having worked with several engineering firms over the years, Inertia truly stood out. They were the only team that consistently delivered exactly what we expected: organized, proactive, and always moving forward. Their exceptional communication and project management, with regular, in-depth updates, were especially reassuring given our significant investment.

Unlike other firms, who lacked oversight and attention to detail, Inertia excelled in every aspect, from project management to design controls. Their talented team delivered a diagnostic device platform that exceeded our expectations. Without a doubt, they are our top recommendation. No one else comes close."

"We needed a company to work with us on the development of a novel medical device in record time, while in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. Inertia was an excellent partner.

They stepped up to meet this challenge and we were able to successfully complete the project."

Neil GodaraVice President and General Manager, Baylis Medical

"Inertia brings creative design, thoughtful engineering, and a sensitivity to scaled manufacturing, along with proactive thinking around potential roadblocks. I haven't contracted a firm with the same scope as Inertia before. Other vendors have had much more specific areas of focus for support. With those vendors, I've had to be much more hands-on in terms of providing instruction on wants and needs, and it's been more stressful overall since aspects can go wrong if I'm not micromanaging.

With Inertia, I don't have any of those concerns. It's been a great collaborative process with clear communication, and the team at Inertia really understands what we're building, like they're part of our company. It's been a pleasure working with Inertia so far and we hope to have many more years of successful collaboration ahead."

"Working with Inertia is a very positive experience. We are developing a new analytical device in an environment where the path is still evolving and the work requires flexibility and sound product development judgment. What has stood out is the way the Inertia team has embraced that reality: they listen carefully, adapt as the project changes, and help us keep moving without forcing the work into a rigid process.

Even when issues came up, the team responded constructively and improved the way we worked together. Their capacity of combining technical capability, responsiveness, patience in due time, and genuine collaboration is very valuable, and I would recommend Inertia without hesitation."

Veronique BougieChief Operating Officer, Anasens

"What stands out with Inertia is that they do not wait. They come into a meeting having already found the problem, gone to the root cause, and put it on paper: this is why, this is the consequence, these are the options, and this is the one we recommend. Usually in R&D someone tells you there is a problem and it is yours to work out. Here the solution arrives with it.

Everything around the work is just as organized. The presentations are well structured, bullet points come after every meeting so nobody gets lost in who said what, and the action items are always clear. Having worked with other engineering teams in different contexts, Inertia stands out as extremely rigorous, both in documenting the thinking behind a decision and in knowing medical devices and manufacturing properly.

For us the value is the quality. The team is autonomous, they get the product, and we have never had to micromanage. We trust their expertise."

"The next growing season waits for no one. That’s why we partnered with Inertia to be our turn-key hardware engineering and manufacturing team.

In six short months they delivered a clean-sheet engineered design for our autonomous weed-picking vehicle."

Luc LabbéChief Executive Officer, Nexus Robotics

"We needed a partner who could design, manufacture, and supply-manage our smart lock hardware product so that our team could focus on developing our core services and IP, which is access control and encryption software.

The Inertia team certainly delivered on the hardware."

David CoodeChief Executive Officer, Sera 4

"From the early stages of the project, we were driven by ambitious timelines with a fail-fast mentality. Countless rapid iterations based on user feedback ultimately produced a persuasive prototype.

From there, we needed a high-quality product and short time-to-market."

Garry LiuCofounder and Chief Executive Officer, Innovere Medical

"Being a first-time entrepreneur, the Inertia team fully immersed me in their product development experience and made me feel in total control of my product’s destiny, providing exceptional support required to get the work done right and on time.

They shared with me all their knowledge and understanding of the technical, regulatory, and commercial landscape which empowered me to make the best decisions for my product and my customers. Their transparency, communication, and collaboration are head and shoulders above anything I've ever experienced."

Dayo Olakulehin MDChief Executive Officer, Ligand Innovation Global

"What differentiated Inertia was the combination of structure, ownership, and consistent follow-through throughout the project. The team moved the work forward steadily and independently, without requiring much day-to-day oversight from our side. There was clear progress from week to week, and it felt like dedicated resources were actively advancing the work between meetings rather than waiting for the next check-in to determine what to do next.

The team brought strong communication, thoughtful listening, and creative problem solving to the work. Feedback was taken seriously, ideas were translated into practical next steps, and the overall experience felt smooth and productive.

Inertia came across as a capable, well-organized development partner that could take ownership of a defined scope, maintain momentum, and deliver quality work with a high degree of autonomy."

Wendy BlandaFounder, Blanda & Associates

"The Inertia team gets it, they are good at having empathy and putting themselves in the shoes of the product user.

Inertia always exceeds expectations in terms of communication, setting expectations, and the way the team conducts themselves."
