Before the Playbooster / Kidbuilder concept a typical expenditure on playground equipment was less than $5,000. Today it is not unusual to find budgets of $50,000 and greater.
Other Examples
TIGOR created a design and production team for Playboosters (playground equipment).
The equipment manufacturing company was being offered for sale. With industry partners, TIGOR developed a business plan to purchase the company and produce Playboosters, which was unsuccessful.
Beyond the profit potential of the product, our team had a deep appreciation for the value of the Playbooster concept. Product designs were based on sound child development research and field tested prototypes.
TIGOR reorganized the production and distribution plans, and developed a new product (KidBuilders) using the same concepts and a new manufacturer.
National dealer networks were created and the product became an industry standard in less than five years. Today Kidbuilders is famous worldwide and is the most popular equipment in outdoor recreation.
