What to expect from our consulting services

In addition to evaluation and reporting services typical of many consulting companies in the furniture and wood working industry, fabri-CAD can also take ownership of the results of our improvement projects.

When selecting this option, we assign our own professional management team to take over key management roles, while recruiting and training a professional in-house team that will be capable of managing independently and implementing improved manufacturing systems and procedures. Follow up support is available as needed for a specified period or on an ongoing basis depending on the project requirements.

Since each project is unique, we typically provide an initial field evaluation free of charge. The purpose of our visit is to obtain first-hand knowledge of the operation from which to assess compatibility with our resources and capabilities. If the project is a good match for our team, we will then provide a project proposal, timeline, and quotation to the client for review and further discussion.
