Your STEP file in, an engineering dossier out.

Snow One Desk is our engineering platform for winter equipment. It reads your machine from its 3D model, measures it, and takes it through the full chain: structure, hydraulics, kinematics, manufacturing, cost, field productivity and total cost of ownership, as views of the same machine rather than five separate conversations.

Who it is for

Built for the people who make the machine.

Manufacturers of snowplows, snow blowers, collection and handling systems, and tracked winter vehicles. Component and carrier makers who need to know what their product does on a real machine. Boards and investors who need an independent reading of a product line.

The chain

One continuous engineering chain.

Traditional CAD answers what the geometry is. Simulation answers whether it survives. Costing answers what it costs to build. Desk connects those and adds the two questions that decide whether a machine sells: how it performs in the field, and what it is worth over its life.

How an engagement starts

Three dossiers. Each one a decision point.

Most projects start with the review. You see the results before you commit to the next step.

Technical review
What the machine does well, what it does badly, and by what mechanism. Measured on your model, not on opinion.
Recommendations
What improves without changing the architecture: mass, part count, welding, cost, serviceability, each one quantified.
Alternative architecture
When the review finds a contradiction the existing design cannot resolve: a pre-project for a different geometry, with the validation plan your engineering office will need to confirm it.

What you receive

Files your teams can open on the day they arrive.

Not a slide deck. Drawings, reports, production files and sales material, grouped by who uses them.

Design

Geometry and drawings

  • 3D parts and assemblies
  • STEP exchange models
  • Sheet-metal flat patterns
  • Production, assembly, installation and service drawings

Engineering

Calculation and validation

  • Mass and center of gravity
  • Structural and load-case analysis
  • Pivot and pin sizing
  • Hydraulic sizing
  • Kinematics and fatigue
  • Carrier compatibility and design validation
  • Patent landscape benchmark

Manufacturing

Production preparation

  • Bill of materials and part lists
  • Weld information and routing
  • Material requirements and production time
  • Unit cost and cost by subassembly

Commercial

What your sales team can use

  • S1 Value Card
  • TCO report and productivity analysis
  • Contractor ROI model

How we work

Every figure carries its class.

Every figure in a Desk dossier carries its class: measured on the solid, derived under assumptions we state, declared by a manufacturer, or not verifiable from the model. Every measurement is cross-checked by an independent method before it is published. A name on a drawing is never taken as a dimension; it is measured. When the model does not carry an answer, the dossier says so and tells you what would close it.

This runs on Snow One Desk, our own engineering platform. You never touch it. You receive what it produces, signed by an engineer.

The Technical Passport

Every machine leaves with its passport.

A permanent record of the machine: three winters later, engineering does not start from a blank sheet.

  • Product identification and revision
  • Design configuration
  • Dimensions, mass, center of gravity
  • Materials
  • Hydraulic requirements
  • Validated load cases
  • Reference safety factors
  • Fatigue assumptions
  • Carrier compatibility
  • Manufacturing cost baseline
  • Value scenario and S1 Score
  • Test references
  • Service bulletins
  • Engineering-change history

Beyond the dossier

The same model feeds Snow One Studio.

Cinematic images and video for your sales team, and scale models or printed prototypes for your next meeting, rendered from the machine as it is rather than from an artist's idea of it.

One model: the calculations, the film, the images and the printed prototype all come from it.

Confidentiality

Under NDA, always.

Every engagement starts with a mutual NDA. We publish no client names and no case studies. Your models, drawings, costs and results stay yours, and project teams never cross between clients.

Your data stays yours
Drawings, CAD, bills of material, cost structures, test results and field data remain your property. We hold them for the engagement and return or destroy them at its end, on your instruction.
No client is ever named
We publish no case study, no logo and no reference without your written agreement. The work you commission does not become our marketing.
No carry-over between clients
We work for several manufacturers in the same industry. What we learn on one engagement never travels to another. Project teams are separated, and we decline work where that separation cannot be guaranteed.
Anonymity does not expire
The obligation outlives the engagement. A delivered project, a launched product or a change of supplier does not make your work ours to show. We keep no public client list, and this site names none.
