Who do we support?
We support design and engineering teams across the UK and Ireland, from growing SMEs to established enterprises. Our focus is applications-led engineering with measurable outcomes, not theory.
Teams typically engage us when they are:
- Adopting or switching CAD platforms
- Scaling engineering teams and workflows
- Formalising data management and collaboration
- Reducing design risk and rework
What do we do?
We help engineering teams turn design tools into reliable, repeatable workflows that support productivity, collaboration, and growth.
As the leading provider of SOLIDWORKS and engineering applications across the UK and Ireland, Solid Solutions supports the full design lifecycle - from early concept through to manufacture - with solutions configured around how your teams actually work.
What solutions do we typically provide?
Design
2D & 3D CAD to quickly develop your ideas into functioning products.
Simulation
Virtual testing to avoid issues and enable confident design decisions.
Data Management
PDM and collaboration tools, to control changes and reduce risk.
Communications
Visualisation and design communication to align stakeholders and impress customers.
Manufacturing
Efficient workflows that connect design to production.
Training & Development
Certified training to drive adoption and day-one productivity.
Support
Ongoing technical support to keep your teams productive.
Consultancy
Professional services from experienced engineers, designers and deveopers.
How do we work?
We go beyond software supply.
Our consultants work alongside your teams to understand how designs are created, shared, and released. Solutions are configured around your processes today, with a clear path for future growth.
Engagements typically start with understanding your current workflows and constraints, followed by phased implementation, enablement, and ongoing optimisation as your teams evolve.
From implementation and training to ongoing support, you deal directly with experienced engineers who understand your applications and commercial pressures.
We focus on adoption, not just installation
Our customers rely on us to improve productivity, increase adoption, and make better engineering decisions faster.
It’s certainly been a rollercoaster of a journey bringing a spark of an idea into a working product. We couldn’t have done it without the support of companies like Solid Solutions, which provided the software, hardware, training and everything in between.
