About TRU Group Inc - Vision & Scope

TRU Group Inc is primarily about engineering technology with our highly qualified resource of distinguished certified professionals, integrating next-level leading-edge engineering technology, advanced manufacturing operations and industrial analysis advice with strategies to profitably build your business. An activating catalyst to fuel your company!

Since its inception more than thirty years ago TRU Group has focused on "Frontier Industries" including Critical Metals, Critical Materials and Critical Minerals. We undertake the analysis required for resolving the most challenging technology-intensive industry issues and help you to implement a customer-focused Strategic-Mindset in your manufacturing company. TRU Group Clients range from the world's largest industrial multi-nationals to the smallest of start-ups and we work extensively internationally. The client assignments are a wide variety involving -

• Engineering + Technology + Science
• Manufacturing Operations Production Engineering
• Strategy & Strategic Planning Integration
• Venture Development & Operations

The nature of our client engagement is flexible but includes Engineering & Technical Analysis, Production Engineering, Feasibility Studies and Investor Due Diligence. We are commercially oriented working only for industry. Our management have solid directly relevant state-of-the-art industry experience career manufacturing-operations-people. We are expert Project Managers for the most challenging of projects providing an excellent fully bankable capability for integrated feasibility or due diligence studies. TRU Group are consulting industrial (marketing) techno-economists. Technical Management Consultants in factory / plant / manufacturing operations engineers with strategic planning and marketing skills.

We are scientists, technologists and engineers: TRU Group has a distinctive capability in technology intensive industries - Frontier Industries, Critical Metals, Critical Materials, Rare Earth Minerals and Metals. It is one of our core objectives to have the capability to undertake the most challenging technical assignments large or small - especially the foundation process development, pilot testing and front-end state-of-the-art engineering design package. At TRU Group "Equipment Suppliers" are not "Technology Providers". Robust front-end engineering can eliminate negative issues and wasted effort down the road and get your manufacturing up-and-running! This is especially important in the frontier industries including critical minerals and critical metals. Nealy all our work is custom and TRU Group takes on the role of "technology supplier". Our manufacturing consulting is focused for example on niche industry segments, developing sectors, new processes or novel technologies - game changing or disruptive - and innovative products. (Example, in 2021-23 ongoing feasibility of a 20 Gigawatt li-ion cell & battery plant; 2021 TRU Group is wrapping up an assignment on the use of 3D Printing Additive Manufacturing on the production line. In 2024 a state-of-the-art graphite coating line for anodes used in electric vehicle Ev batteries. And in 2024/5 ongoing metallic sodium and metallic lithium for futuristic solid state batteries. Earlier we examined the target effectiveness of onboard equipment for autonomous vehicles "driverless cars" such as lidar, lasers, radar & ultrasound sensors with robotics, artificial intelligence, AI and vision systems). We thrive on advancing the conventional to state-of-the-art even in technologically mature industries. (Example new 2016 automated USA batch-process pigment-paint plant). At TRU Group "Equipment Suppliers" are not "Technology Suppliers". Consistent with this posture TRU Group Inc is a leader in the creation of the TRU Group Front-end Engineering-Package for innovative manufacturing and expert in TRU Group New Product / Process Commercialization.

Entering 2025 new extraordinary challenges exist given Donald Trump's re-election as US President and Putin's Russian continuing war against Ukraine. To be clear, TRU Group holds that the Trump April 2025 policies on manufacturing (trade / tariff war included) are extremely counter-productive even in the long term for . manufacturing and the US economy. (See TRU Group commentary "TRU Group American US Manufacturing"), Similarly with Trumps' approach on Russia. TRU Group encourages all western companies to urgently move their operations out of Russia and its ally China. On Russia, TRU Group condemns all who in any fashion act in support of Putin! TRU Group stands ready to assist with these moves. For example, TRU Group has boosted its services to assist enterprises to find alternative trading partners to Russia and China. These alternatives include Mexico, India, ASEAN countries, Middle East, and Eastern Europe. Also see

As CEO I set high standards for TRU Group - I believe above all competitors. I have successfully managed assignments involving investment decisions of many hundreds of millions of dollars (and a few over $1 billion). I have assisted start-ups to grow exponentially and obtain the financing to do so. I have many years VP and Director level experience in North American middle-market technology-intensive multi-nationals and with prestigious engineering or multi-billion-dollar investment firms. I have project managed the most challenging projects globally . I taught business at the Universities of Arizona and Toronto. (To view my biography click on my picture or name). TRU Group can help.
