MATLAB and Simulink Jumpstart Services
Jumpstart Services provide advanced onsite consulting for teams of up to five people. During this time, an experienced MathWorks consultant helps get your project running by:
- Identifying your needs
- Reviewing your approach to using MATLAB, Simulink, Stateflow, and other MathWorks products
- Providing advanced, project-specific clinics and hands-on assistance
Project Teams Who Benefit
The package is designed for those who have recently:
- Purchased (or plan to purchase) a MathWorks product
- Upgraded from a previous release
- Embarked on a project involving MathWorks products
Customized Jumpstart Services are most beneficial for team members who have a basic familiarity with MathWorks products or have taken core training in MATLAB, Simulink, and Stateflow.
Service Offerings
The following services are provided during a typical Jumpstart Service engagement.
Architecture and Needs Review
The consultant meets with your team to discuss the problem to be solved and review your current plans. Based on this review, the consultant draws up a list of recommended standards and procedures to enable you to successfully integrate MathWorks products into your project.
The MathWorks product set is extensive and complex. The consultant helps you select the subset of products necessary for the successful completion of your project.
Installation and Configuration
To ensure that you derive the maximum benefit from MathWorks products, the consultant can help you configure individual products for your current project.
If you have already completed the installation and configuration, an installation review will be conducted.
Project Management
Drawing on years of experience in MATLAB and in developing and managing models in Simulink and Stateflow, the consultant will recommend how you can best use these products to manage, develop, and document your projects. Client-specific "style guides" can be developed in order to establish a consistent set of best practices. The consultant works with one or more members of your team to generate a set of requirements for these styles.
Advanced Engineering
The advanced engineering clinics provide a personalized means of learning how to apply MathWorks products to your projects effectively. After reviewing key topics covered in MathWorks training courses, the consultant concentrates on the ones most relevant to your current project. The clinics are offered in the following formats:
Seminar. The consultant works with your entire project team. Team members have the opportunity to ask questions pertaining to their projects, and the MathWorks consultant presents examples using project cases provided by you.
One-on-one. The consultant works directly with individual team members, focusing on specific design issues, MATLAB code, Simulink and Stateflow models, and other tools pertaining to their project. The consultant also helps the team member debug existing MATLAB code and Simulink and Stateflow models.

Jumpstart Services can be ordered directly from your MathWorks sales representative or by contacting MathWorks Consulting Services.
