Development partner
From concept to finished product
Since its inception in 1997, Avalon Innovation has carried out numerous projects and assignments spanning an incredible breadth of technical innovations, industries, product types and markets. We deliver everything from turnkey projects where the customer has only identified a market need and we take care of everything from concept to finished product, including project management, to projects where we provide assistance in the exact areas where customers need our support.
Fully dedicated experts
With Avalon, you don’t just get access to a “consultancy company”, you also get access to a development partner with a broad network of specialists and manufacturers. We can offer a one-stop shop upon request.
We are a large group of senior and fully dedicated experts when it comes to the development of products and systems, with backgrounds and cutting-edge expertise in a variety of disciplines. The collective knowledge you get access to as a customer is therefore quite unique.
Long-term relationships
As a development partner, we build a long-term relationship where we supplement your organisation in the areas that need strengthening. This long-term approach characterises everything we do in our relationship, and as a result we can look beyond short-term, individual activities or projects.
The basic idea is that Avalon should always add the expertise that the customer lacks or requires, either because it’s not part of the customer’s core business or because they haven’t had time to build up this expertise.
Avalon Innovation Model™
We have extensive experience of managing and carrying out turnkey assignments of all shapes and sizes and in all phases within our own project organisation. We always adapt the project format to the customer’s needs, and we apply our project management process via our PMO, coupled with our unique innovation model, called the Avalon Innovation Model™.
Satisfied customers
We’re only too happy to let our track record of 98% satisfied and returning customers demonstrate the advantages this means for you as a customer.
We’d like to tell you more about how we can help you. Let our expertise supplement yours.
Our development network
With Avalon Innovation as your development partner, you not only get access to our combined cutting-edge and core expertise, you also get access to our extensive and ever-growing development network.
A network that:
- allows flexibility and scalability for you the customer
- has been well established for many years and comprises everything from specialists, manufacturers and test facilities to subconsultants and suppliers
- enables you the customer to take a clear long-term approach
- provides options for alternative ways of measuring results
- can create a common theme connecting different projects, from sale to implementation and from client to team (core team)*
Project control through our PMO
Avalon’s project organisation works with projects on both an operational and a strategic level. The group comprises very senior personnel who are experts in their respective fields of technology.
Our PMO provides, owns and develops the models, processes and tools our project managers and other project members need to manage and implement effective projects and ensure that they adhere to the set schedule and budget.
The PMO is responsible for all implementation-related work that falls within our role as a development partner, including budget management, KPI monitoring (planned value/earned value, etc.).
Our team has expertise within:
- Project management
- Requirements and testing
- Systems engineering
- Industrial design and UX
- Mechanical design
- Embedded systems
- Software engineering
- Electronics design
In addition, we have a further 150 incredibly talented colleagues at Avalon who are also passionate about product development in all its forms.
Project quality with a unique process
The Avalon Innovation Model is an iterative, user-oriented product development model that aims to transform assumptions into facts. We thereby minimise risk and uncertainty in development projects and maximise the return on investment.
AIM is generic, scalable and flexible in order to support each individual project in the best possible way. The working methods we apply to conduct activities and deliver clear deliverables at all project stages ensure efficiency which, together with our project management methodology guarantees the quality of the deliverables.
The process broadly describes the steps we think are advisable to go through when developing the functions, products and systems we have been commissioned to deliver.

Some of our projects
Swegon
Aided by a specialist team from Avalon, the next generation indoor climate was developed through a turnkey assignment including 13 innovative and technically advanced products, from concept to final tool design.
Sundström Safety
Sundström Safety decided to develop the next generation of respiratory protection with external help.
The design and development work was carried out in accordance with our tried-and-tested innovation process – which helped to weave a number of identified key functions into the design.
TC TECH
Over the years, we’ve been trusted to offer our expertise to TC TECH, primarily in design, construction, technical documentation and project management, where the teams work closely together. The result is the TCP150 system.
TC TECH’s vision is to establish the company’s system as the new standard for the production of advanced polymer products in micro and nanotechnology, with excellent performance at a high rate of production and with low energy consumption in consumer electronics, medical technology and the automotive industry. The main purpose is therefore to reduce energy consumption when our screens are lit.
Stille
GS2 is a cost-effective operating table for ambulatory surgery, with a focus on increasing user and patient safety while offering maximum flexibility.
Avalon has developed all of the mechanics in the table and been responsible for large parts of the documentation pertaining to risk, requirements and testing, as well as for manuals. In addition to developing the product itself, Avalon designed assembly aids/production jigs, load test equipment for acceptance tests and packaging for the product, including accessories.
KookieJar
Avalon Innovation is developing urban transport systems of the future. Since 2021, we’ve been a development partner to Kookiejar of Sweden and helped pursue technological progress in a brand new ecosystem for autonomous fossil-free flight in a network of vertiports.
KookieJar’s vision is to build a network of vertiports everywhere from shopping centres, rooftops and arenas to car parks. Some vertiports can also be built at existing airports, and Norrköping airport will be the first.
Kund inom medtech
Avalon fick i uppdrag att utveckla två helt nya produkter för automatisk, sömlös uppladdning av data, utan behov av aktivt ingripande. Resultatet blev två temperaturloggrar som möter helt olika krav i leveranskedjan men som båda kommunicerar via den då helt nya tekniken Bluetooth 5.
I projektet har Avalons värde legat i att effektivt strukturera upp behov och krav på produkterna, leda det multidisciplinära teamet, utveckla kärnfunktionaliteten och bidra med innovativa designlösningar. Avalon har snabbt kunnat bistå med den specialistkompetens som behövts under projektets gång.
Tjeders
Together with Avalon Innovation, Tjeders has created the basis for a scalable, user-friendly and accessible online platform that links the alarm systems and installation programs of various suppliers. The underlying technology and data analysis are powerful in that the user receives only the information they need in their day-to-day work. By seeing only necessary information, the stresses of everyday life become a little less demanding.
