What lands in your inbox
Every audit is written so estimators and shop leads can act the same day—no translation layer, no theory-only commentary.
- Ranked changes with estimated impact on cost, risk, or quoted lead time.
- Shop talk tied to your stated process—not generic “best practice” lists.
- Clear next step if you want Production Ready Engineering to implement the fixes.
Scope
What we stress-test
Tolerance & fit
Where callouts fight the process you actually run—laser vs punch, brake sequence, weld access, and inspection reality.
Fabrication risk
Ambiguous views, missing datums, and BOM gaps that usually trigger RFIs or shop-floor rework.
Cost & cycle signal
Plain-language notes on what likely drives quote hours and lead time, ranked so estimators know what to tackle first.
FAQ
Quick answers
What do you need from us?
CAD, drawings, BOM, and notes on how you plan to cut, form, and assemble. The more CAM constraints you share, the sharper the audit.
Is this NDA-friendly?
Yes. Send your standard NDA and we'll execute before files move. We work with anonymized examples when clients require it.
What if we disagree with a finding?
You get rationale tied to shop outcomes—not opinions. Push back on anything; we'll reconcile before you pay the invoice.

Either path gets you clarity without a retainer. If you already know you need a full production package, we'll quote that too.
