The fabrication business is unique, so you need unique tools to run it:  

It’s really a hybrid. Some aspects are like a manufacturing business; you need to quote and manufacture countertops to order and manage your production shop for peak efficiency. Some aspects are like a service or construction business; you need to manage installation crews and deliver great customer service for  homeowners, general contractors and many other customers. No wonder general business solutions, or solutions for manufacturers or general contractors, are not good enough for you. Wouldn’t it be great if there were solutions developed just for fabrication companies, by industry experts?

 
The better way to run your fabrication business.

Is your business as profitable as you want it to be? No? 

Have you improved the production capacity of your shop, but not your office systems?

As one business owner put it, “I had a Ferrari in my shop but a horse and buggy in my office.”
                                                                      John Hyopponen - St. Germain’s Casework Co

Your business is like a relay race. 

You need to have hand-offs from different functions

How can you have even, controlled growth with Ferrari systems for production and only “horse and buggy” approaches to all of the other business management systems.
