SAN DIEGO, CA — January 6, 2009 — Industrial Interface went live today with its online B2B service that connects engineers with experienced technical salespeople. The system allows engineers, designers, and sourcing professionals to post projects, problems, and sourcing needs to the website. Industrial Interface then matches those projects with industrial suppliers who have worked on similar projects in the past, or who have experience with new technologies that could help.

Co-Founder, President, and former manufacturing engineer T. Brian Jones said, “The current pace of technological development means that no one is an expert in any niche anymore. Engineers and designers need to partner with experienced suppliers to solve their technical design problems. The earlier they do this, the better off both parties will ultimately be. We’ve designed Industrial Interface to facilitate connections between these two parties during the concept and design phase of development when the biggest design mistakes are often made. With Industrial Interface, engineers can find the best suppliers to work with when they know little more that the problems they are trying to solve.”
