Your tolerances are ±0.0005. Your website is from 2008 and shows it.

Before an RFQ ever reaches your inbox, a procurement engineer vetted you online: capabilities, equipment, certifications, capacity. A dated site with a clip-art gear fails that audit silently — you never even knew you were evaluated. We build manufacturing sites that read like a capabilities statement and convert like a sales engineer.

THE MARKET READ

Industrial buying changed quietly: the supplier search now starts at a search engine, not a trade show. Engineers and buyers shortlist machine shops and contract manufacturers by what their websites document — machine list, materials, tolerances, certifications, quality systems. The shop with the thorough site gets the RFQ; the better shop with the empty site never hears about the job.

Reshoring has made it more urgent. OEMs actively hunting domestic suppliers in Texas, Florida, and along the East Coast are doing it through web research. That's a once-in-a-generation demand wave, and it lands on whichever shops are documented online well enough to be found and trusted.

// SOUND FAMILIAR?

The four ways manufacturer websites lose money

We've audited hundreds of shop sites. The same problems show up over and over — and every one of them costs you a customer who was ready to pay.

01

The capabilities page that isn't

'CNC machining, fabrication, assembly' — twelve words where an engineer needs a machine list, envelope sizes, materials, and tolerances. Vague sites get skipped, not called.

02

Certifications buried or missing

ISO 9001, AS9100, ITAR — pass/fail filters in procurement searches. If they're not visible and current on the site, you fail filters you actually pass in reality.

03

No RFQ path

A generic contact form where a structured RFQ intake should be. Engineers with drawings ready will use the supplier whose site is ready for them.

04

Nothing about capacity or lead times

Buyers burned by supply chains now vet for resilience: capacity, equipment redundancy, typical lead times. Silence reads as risk.

// THE REBUILD, VISUALIZED

The vibe we'd build for a shop

Industrial buyers arrive with a spec sheet and a deadline. Gunmetal, molten orange, mono type — the vibe is a shop floor that hits tolerance, photographed like a film set.

WHAT YOUR NEW SITE WILL DO

Built for how a shop actually wins work

The site is your capabilities statement, quality manual cover, and RFQ intake — built to pass a procurement engineer's twenty-minute audit.

Real capabilities documentation

Machine list with envelopes, materials, tolerances, secondary ops — the spec-level detail that survives engineering scrutiny.

Certifications front and center

ISO, AS9100, ITAR registration, NIST compliance — displayed, current, and marked up for the searches that filter by them.

Structured RFQ intake

Drawing upload, quantities, materials, timeline — an RFQ form that lands in your quoting workflow ready to price.

Industries served pages

Aerospace, medical, energy, defense — each vertical a page speaking its language and its compliance reality.

Proof of work

Parts gallery, case studies, equipment photos — the shop floor presented like the asset it is (with customer confidentiality respected).

Capacity and lead-time signals

Shifts, redundancy, typical turnarounds — the supply-chain-resilience answers buyers now require.

Old site gone, new site live, in 7 days.

DAY 1

Audit & quote

60-minute call. We tell you exactly what's broken and lock a fixed price before you hang up.

DAY 2–5

You watch the real site take shape in the browser. We write the copy and wire the schema.

DAY 6

You review, we polish

One round of revisions, applied the same day. No tickets. No project-manager relay.

DAY 7

Launch — you keep the keys

Your domain, your hosting, your code. No platform lock-in, no retainer, no hostage situation.

// QUESTIONS SHOP OWNERS ASK US

Before you call

Our work is under NDA. How do we show capability without showing parts?

Standard problem, solved structurally: machine lists, materials, tolerances, and process documentation carry most of the vetting weight without showing a single customer part. Where visuals help, representative parts, anonymized case studies ('flight-critical aluminum housing, ±0.001, 5-axis') and shop-floor photography do the work. We build it NDA-clean from the start.

Do RFQs really come through websites?

The RFQ arrives by email — but the decision to send it happens on your website. Procurement shortlists three to five suppliers by site research, then sends the package. Shops consistently report that better documentation widens the top of that funnel; you're not converting browsers, you're surviving shortlists.

Can you integrate with our quoting or ERP system?

The RFQ intake can feed most modern quoting tools (Paperless Parts, ProShop, etc.) directly or by structured email into your existing workflow. We keep the integration pragmatic — the goal is your estimator opening a complete package, not an IT project.

What does it cost, exactly?

Three fixed packages: $1,500 for a 5-page rebuild in 7 days, $5,000 for up to 20 pages with a blog and integrations in 14 days, and $15,000+ for 100+ page builds. The quote we send before you sign is the number on the final invoice — no scope-creep charges, ever.

Ready to bulldoze your shop's website?

Tell us your domain. We'll send a brutal audit of what's broken, with a fixed quote to fix it. No sales call required.

Free. No spam. We reply within 24 hours, or we'll bulldoze our own site.
