We work with manufacturers of 50 to 500 people in Ontario and the Great Lakes on the part of the business that decides how much work gets through the plant: quoting, scheduling, handoffs, and the admin that lands on the best people. We use AI inside our own work so that a day on your floor produces more than a day of notes, and we build what we recommend on the systems you already own. The firm was founded by Daryl Edwards, a former plant manager and VP of Operations.</p></div></div></section><section id="engagements" class="py-20 scroll-mt-[90px]"><div class="container-main"><div class="flex items-center gap-[10px] mb-4 "><span class="block w-6 h-[1.5px] rounded-sm" style="background-color:hsl(var(--accent))"></span><span class="text-eyebrow ">Engagements</span></div><h2 class="heading-md mb-4">Five ways to work with us.</h2><p class="text-body max-w-[720px] mb-10">Every one of them starts the same way, with a day on your floor.
