Engineering components, to drawing.

Castings, forgings, machined, fabricated and assembled parts: buyers need suppliers who can hold tolerances, document materials and scale from samples to production.

Buyers and partnersNeeds · Help

What buyers usually need, and where I help.

What buyers usually need

  • Parts made to drawing, with tolerances and finishes held consistently
  • Material test certificates and inspection reports
  • Quality systems such as ISO 9001, and sector standards where required (for example IATF 16949 for automotive)
  • First-article or sample approval before production
  • Protective packaging, export documentation and dependable lead times

What I help with

  • Matching your parts to suppliers by process: casting, forging, CNC machining, fabrication
  • Making sure an NDA is in place before drawings are shared
  • Checking certifications, capacity and export history
  • Keeping sample approval and specification sign-off explicit
  • Introducing both sides under a short agreement

A few lines is enough to start.

Tell me what you need or what you can supply. I reply personally, and nothing is shared with anyone else until you are comfortable and an agreement is in place.
