Estimating with Precision and Purpose
More Than a Quote, It’s the Start of a Partnership
Estimating is more than pricing. We strive to understand your needs, your tolerances, your timelines, and your expectations. We don’t cut corners, and we don’t rely on guesswork. Our quoting process is built around collaboration, transparency, and a deep understanding of complex, mission-critical parts.
We know you're not just looking for the lowest number and that you're looking for reliability, capability, and a supplier who gets it right the first time. That’s why we ask the right questions upfront and put experienced machinists and estimators on every RFQ.
Our Estimating Process
Discovery & Part Review
Every quote begins with a detailed review of your prints, 3D models, and specifications. We look at material, geometry, tolerances, quantity, and end-use. If anything is unclear, we’ll reach out, because understanding the "why" behind a part helps us machine it better.
Process Planning
We determine the most efficient and accurate way to make your part, whether it’s Swiss turning, CNC milling, or a combination of operations. We also evaluate tooling, fixturing, and inspection strategies up front.
Pricing & Lead Time Estimation
We deliver a clear, honest quote with pricing that reflects the complexity of the work and the value of tight-tolerance, high-quality machining. We include realistic lead times and flag any risks we see early.
Communication & Follow-Up
We don’t ghost. Our estimating team is responsive, professional, and available to talk through your questions. Need to compare options or adjust scope? We’re here to help.
