## Partnering with Centerline

### We've Done This Before

We've worked alongside industry leaders and academic researchers to determine the best processes for new applications. 

### How It Works

Communication is the key to any successful project. Our team stays in frequent contact with the client team to discuss the most applicable processes, prices and timelines and to troubleshoot issues as they arise. We adhere to the [four principles of Centerline](https://www.centerlinetech-usa.com/news/blog/centerline-adopts-4-principles-to-better-serve-our-customers) in all client relations.

### Pricing

We aim to make small batches as affordable as possible, so rather than charging by the batch for small quantity orders, we formulate a lot price based on the direct costs of each part.
