Case Study: Craftmasters Laser & Fabrication cuts quoting time by 66% with Paperless Parts

Craftmasters Laser & Fabrication Saves Countless Hours on Calculations Thanks to Paperless Parts

Craftmasters Laser & Fabrication, a precision light-gauge metal fabrication shop in Waco, TX, was struggling with a fully manual quoting process that depended on tribal knowledge and made it difficult to train new estimators or scale the business. As quoting and pricing specialist, VP of Operations Ryan Cheek was overloaded by RFQs and needed a faster, more reliable way to produce accurate estimates. Paperless Parts was brought in to help streamline quoting across multiple processes.

Paperless Parts implemented custom calculators and quoting tools for Craftmasters Laser & Fabrication, including instant CAD-based dimension calculations and automated cost calculations for services like laser cutting, galvanizing, powder coating, and plating. The result was a 66% reduction in per-part quoting time, from three minutes to one minute, along with faster turnaround, error-free quotes, and easier collaboration with customers and internal teams.
