Software and customer portal

Our bespoke manufacturing platform runs all the way from quoting to dispatch: one system fully integrated with the shop floor, giving the team and our customers what they need, when they need it.

Technology that gives good people better information

Fast quoting platform

We quote directly from your 3D STEP or DXF parts, giving highly accurate and competitive pricing. Manufacturability checks are done automatically at the quote stage, which flags issues early, not after the order is placed. You can also price and order parts 24/7 through our interactive website platform, with any CAD data.

Equipment integration

Directly connected to our top specification production machines, your CAD data drives precisely what gets made. No manual drawing, no problems with different revisions, and exact data available to the team throughout the process. Any changes are baked in for the next order, helping keep repeat parts consistent.

Customer portal

View your quotes, orders, shipment tracking, invoices and reorder previous parts, directly on our customer portal. Connected directly to our production equipment, see your order progress and completion dates in real time, with full transparency throughout the manufacturing process.

Data throughout the process

Our software carries material, quantity, geometry, operations, finish and required date from quotation into planning, production and shipping. This gives the team exactly the information they need, allowing us to work on an extremely high mix and variety of parts, while making sure even the most complex requirements are met exactly.

Constantly connected

Feedback comes at all stages of production, directly from the team on the shop floor, so we know exactly where your parts are at all times. It also powers the customer portal, giving account customers a convenient view of their own work and documents.

Software supports the service. Our technical team reviews every part for manufacturability and production issues when quoting, so we can get ahead of anything that needs special attention before the job starts.
