Canadian Manufacturing. Finally Simple.
Stop chasing shops that don't call back. The Assembly matches your components to vetted Canadian producers and manages the whole thing. One point of contact, parts in days.
Built for Canadian
Manufacturers
We work with product companies, equipment suppliers, and distributors who are done waiting on overseas supply chains.
Industrial Equipment Suppliers
You supply replacement parts to field equipment. Lead times are killing your service contracts. You need parts made near your customers, fast, without a warehouse holding cost.
Product Manufacturers
You manufacture finished goods with components still sourced offshore. Every tariff increase, shipping spike, or customs hold is a risk you absorb. Time to bring production home.
Distributors & Importers
You're holding slow-moving inventory on behalf of overseas manufacturers. Dead stock is compounding. On-demand Canadian production eliminates the warehouse carry and the write-off risk.
Is This Right for You?
We're selective about who we work with. Not because we're exclusive, but because the model only works when the fit is right.
This is for you if:
- You manufacture products with components still sourced offshore
- You're tired of chasing suppliers who don't call back
- You need a reliable Canadian supply chain, not just a cheaper one
- You want one point of contact, not 12 vendor relationships
- You're ready to move at least one component this quarter
This is not for you if:
- You're shopping purely on price and want the cheapest option globally
- You need 100,000+ unit commodity runs with no quality sensitivity
- You're "exploring the idea" with no timeline to act
- You want to manage every vendor relationship yourself
The Network Behind Your Parts
We don't operate a marketplace. We run a vetted network of Canadian manufacturers across every major process and province.
No commitment. One part. See if it works.
Everyone starts at Phase 1.
One part first. Prove the fit. Then scale. Every client follows the same path because it works.
Single Part Sprint
Your first part, manufactured in Canada at zero cost. Send us a file, a drawing, or a sample. We handle the DFM, match the producer, and deliver the part. Proof before commitment.
Ongoing Production
You've proven the fit with Phase 1. Now bring the parts that keep you up at night. We handle sourcing, vetting, QA, and logistics. You get parts. We handle the complexity.
Digital Inventory
Your entire parts catalog, digitized, secured, and ready for on-demand production. No warehouse. No minimums. Every part in your catalog becomes a file you produce when someone needs it.
Four Steps.
Zero Friction.
From your file to a finished part in Canada. We manage the complexity so you don't have to.
Send the Part
CAD file, engineering drawing, or physical sample. We'll reverse-engineer it if you don't have a file.
We Do the DFM
We review the design for Canadian manufacturing. Right process, right material, right tolerances. No surprises in production.
Matched to a Producer
We route to the right shop. Not the nearest, not the cheapest. The one with the right equipment, capacity, and track record for your specific part.
Part Delivered
3-5 days. No container ships. No customs holds. Your part, made in Canada, at your door. IP documentation and chain-of-custody included.
Go Further.
When You're Ready.
Layer in additional capability as your reshoring program matures. Available with any Tier 02 or Tier 03 engagement.
Catalog Prioritization Audit
We analyze your full parts catalog and rank every SKU by reshore viability. Lead time risk, tariff exposure, material compatibility, and volume. You get a clear hit-list, not a research project.
Available as a standalone engagement
Slow-Moving Inventory Conversion
We identify your dead stock, digitize the high-value items, and convert the rest from a warehouse liability to on-demand files. Stop paying carrying costs on parts nobody ordered.
Priced per unit of inventory digitized
Secure Manufacturing Protocol
Full sovereign IP handling: encrypted file transfer, three-vault architecture, no public cloud exposure, full chain-of-custody. Built for defence, aerospace, and anyone who needs to know exactly where their designs live.

You're thinking it.
Let's address it.
"Canadian shops are too expensive."
When you factor in tariffs, customs brokerage, currency exchange, shipping, and the carrying cost of waiting 8-12 weeks, offshore is rarely cheaper. We've seen the landed cost flip in favour of Canadian production on the majority of parts we evaluate.
"I sent RFQs to Canadian shops before and nobody called back."
That's because you were sending cold RFQs to shops that weren't the right fit for your part. They padded the price or ignored it. We match your part to the right shop based on capability, capacity, and process fit. The right shop wants your job.
"What if the part doesn't meet spec?"
Every part goes through DFM review before production and QA verification at source. If it doesn't meet spec, we rerun it at no cost to you. The producer is accountable to us, and we're accountable to you.
"I don't have CAD files for my legacy parts."
Send us a physical sample. We'll 3D scan it, reverse-engineer it, and create a production-ready file. That file becomes part of your digital inventory for future orders.
"We can't move our entire supply chain at once."
You don't have to. Start with one part. The one that causes the most pain. Prove the economics on that single component, then bring the next one home. Every engagement starts small.
Free through the AM Demo Program. Zero risk.
Our Guarantee
If we can't match your part to a qualified Canadian producer, we'll tell you. No invoice. No obligation. No wasted time. We'd rather be honest about fit than take a job we can't deliver on.
The Old Way
vs. Ours.
You've tried sourcing Canadian manufacturers on your own. Here's why it didn't work, and what we do differently.

Stop saying next quarter.
We're looking for 3 companies this quarter who are serious about bringing at least one component home. Not exploring the idea. Ready to move. Book 30 minutes and we'll tell you exactly what's realistic, what it'll cost, and how fast you can have a Canadian part in hand.
