The shop floor already knows. Now it's written down.
Precision machining, aerospace suppliers, industrial OEMs, food & beverage, plastics & composites — every plant runs on data it never reads. We turn job history, travelers, and process records into systems that quote faster, schedule tighter, and answer like your best foreman.
Where you sit
Pick your floor. The use cases narrow with you.
Six sub-sectors, one discipline — scoped inside the workflow, built to written acceptance criteria, operated after go-live.
Precision machining & fabrication
Job shops and fabricators where the estimate, the setup, and the promise date all trace back to jobs you've already run.
Quoting from job history
Draft quotes matched against your past jobs by geometry, material, and tolerance callouts — priced from actuals, queued for estimator review.
Setup-sheet knowledge
Setup sheets, travelers, and machine quirks made searchable at the machine, so second shift runs like first.
Scrap & rework analytics
Scrap traced to job family, machine, and setup from the costing data your ERP already holds.
Capacity scheduling
Promise dates checked against real machine capacity and historical cycle times before the quote goes out.
One value stream, automated where it pays.
Every stage keeps a person in charge — we remove the hunting, not the judgment.
RFQ to invoice · a person signs every consequential step

What's in the way
The problems we see across the industry
Quoting bottlenecks
Estimates depend on a handful of senior estimators, and every week of quote latency is a lost bid.
Tribal knowledge walking out the door
Setups, tolerances, and machine quirks live in operators' heads, not in the ERP.
Data trapped in the ERP
Years of job costing and routing data exist but never reach the people making scheduling calls.
What we build
Tailored to the sector, not adapted to it
Quote & estimate automation
Draft quotes assembled from your job history and routings, priced to your actual costs, queued for estimator review.

Case study
Quotes in one morning, priced from actual job history
A precision machining shop cut quote turnaround 82% with estimates assembled from a decade of its own job costing.
