Mechanical Draughting Built Around Your Requirements
From individual components to detailed assemblies, we create CAD models and technical drawings tailored to your project. Choose once-off project support, extra capacity for your team or an ongoing monthly draughting arrangement.

Outsourcing
The Draughting Support You Need, When You Need It
Not every workload justifies hiring a full-time draughtsman. When work is project-based or demand changes from month to month, outsourcing can provide the support you need without committing to a permanent position.
Already have an in-house team? When deadlines tighten and the drawing workload builds up, we can work alongside your department to help clear the backlog and move projects towards completion.
Whether you need help with one project or regular support over several months, we can agree an arrangement around your workload, deliverables and programme.

Ways to work with us
Three ways to engage us
Project-Based Draughting
Dedicated draughting support for an individual project, with the scope, deliverables and programme agreed upfront.
- Defined project scope
- Agreed drawing deliverables
- Project-specific programme
Additional Team Capacity
Extra draughting capacity when your team needs support, working to agreed responsibilities, drawing conventions and review arrangements.
- Temporary or contracted support
- Alignment with your drawing conventions
- Agreed review process
Monthly Retainer
Regular draughting support for a consistent workload, with agreed monthly hours over a defined contract period.
- Agreed hours each month
- Defined contract period
- One monthly cost
Agreed monthly hours + agreed contract term = one fixed monthly draughting fee.
For monthly support, hours, contract duration, work priorities, turnaround expectations and reporting are agreed upfront. Additional hours, unused hours, revisions and any engineering fees are governed by the agreed terms. Engineering review and sign-off is separately scoped and quoted unless expressly included.

File formats
Formats we can supply
PDF | DWG | DXF | STEP/STP | IGES | STL | Native CAD files
Available formats depend on the selected software and agreed deliverables. Required software versions and formats are confirmed during scoping.
Engineering sign-off
Engineering Sign-Off, Arranged Through Trusted Engineers
Where your project requires engineering review or sign-off, we can coordinate this through independent engineers we have worked closely with over the years. We provide the draughting and documentation; the appointed engineer undertakes the agreed engineering assessment and any sign-off within their professional scope.
Requirements, suitability, fees and timing are confirmed for each project. Sign-off remains subject to the engineer's review and any required changes.
Process
How a job flows
Step 1
Share your brief
Sketches, drawings, models, measurements and required outputs.
Step 2
Agree the arrangement
Scope, deliverables, schedule, project or contract terms, and whether an external engineer is required.
Step 3
Draught and review
We prepare documentation, handle the agreed review and revision process, and coordinate the appointed engineer where relevant.
Step 4
Deliver and continue
Issue the agreed final files after required reviews, or continue with the monthly work schedule.
*Preliminary or unreviewed documents are never issued as approved for manufacture.
