Engineering services
1722 sells engineering expertise and time — not products, and not off-the-shelf builds. Four disciplines, one senior engineer, one method: understand the problem, engineer the answer on the systems you already run, and hand you deliverables you own.
Vendor-neutral throughout — no platform, hardware or licences sold, and no vendor commissions. Our only revenue is client fees.
The four lines
Vendor-neutral engineering of the systems behind warehouse automation — the WMS and kit you already own, made to perform.
| Scope | WMS optimisation · automation integration & commissioning · analytics |
|---|---|
| Buyer | 3PL & warehouse operations leaders |
| Model | Staged, fixed-scope project |
Bespoke electronics and embedded engineering — schematic to bring-up. Power, battery and diagnostics depth. You own the IP.
| Scope | Schematic · PCB · firmware · power, battery & diagnostics |
|---|---|
| Buyer | Hardware & product R&D teams |
| Model | Concept-to-production or plug-in |
Independent, senior infrastructure architecture — advisory and design only. Documents you own and can act on.
| Scope | Baselines · target architecture · HA/DR · capacity & migration |
|---|---|
| Buyer | Enterprise IT & infrastructure leaders |
| Model | Fixed-scope assessment / review |
Integration, configuration, commissioning and lifecycle support of OEM hardware into your systems, lines and estates.

| Model | Per-project work package |
One commercial model
Every line is priced the same honest way — for the engineering, against a written statement of work.
A senior engineer for defined days — reviews, advisory, hands-on work with a clear boundary.
Open-scope engineering where the shape emerges as we go, billed for the hours actually worked.
Reserved senior capacity — escalation, review and roadmap steering across a period.
A bounded engagement — an assessment, a design, a commissioning — with a fixed scope, deliverables and price.
No published price list. No fixed monthly subscription. Scope and price are set after a short discovery call.
A short discovery call, no pitch deck. We will tell you whether it is a fit and how we would scope it.
FAQ
Senior engineering expertise and time. You buy judgement and hours to solve a defined problem — configuration, integration, commissioning, design, architecture — scoped to a written statement of work, with named deliverables you own. Not a product, and not a fixed build handed over.
They share one engineer and one method. Warehouse systems, electronics and embedded, infrastructure architecture, and OEM hardware are distinct disciplines, but they meet constantly — controls need electronics, warehouses need infrastructure, OEM kit needs commissioning. You engage a line, or the point where several of them cross.
That is a different job and a different kind of firm — a build delivered to a brief. 1722 sells engineering time applied to systems you already run. If what you need is a ground-up software or web build, we will say so on the discovery call.
No. Our infrastructure work is advisory and design only, and warehouse work is staged project engineering with a defined end. We do not run environments, staff a helpdesk, or hold uptime SLAs. Optional follow-on support exists, but it is never the lead offer and never a lock-in.
We sell no platform, hardware or licences and take no vendor commissions, so there is nothing to steer you toward. The recommendation follows your problem and your existing systems — impartially.
After a short discovery call. We scope the work, name the deliverables and acceptance, and price it as day-rate, time-and-materials, retainer, or a fixed-scope package. We do not publish a price list or sell fixed monthly subscriptions.
