Help manufacturing plants make better capital decisions by getting layouts and drawings right early, before big money and downtime are on the line.
We focus on clear, front‑end layouts and clean drawing sets so your operators, engineers, OEMs, and contractors are all working from the same picture.
DraftHiveCo is Jeff Flint
Jeff founded DHC as a manufacturing project engineer with 15+ years inside food, bakery, and CPG plants.
He spent a decade leading capital projects ($1M–$60M), supervising production lines, and coordinating OEMs and integrators.
Jeff started DHC to solve a recurring frustration: manufacturers spending weeks and thousands on detailed engineering only to discover the layout doesn't quite fit how the plant actually runs.
Jeff's model is simple: Do the thinking and iteration while it's cheap. Develop clear, operator-friendly concepts before your PE firm or integrator opens a full design model. Save months of rework and change orders. Handing manufacturers a solid direction to execute.
If your plant has a project that keeps getting pushed to "next quarter" because the right concept hasn't been locked down and you keep receiving change order after change order, that's where DHC adds the most value.
Most plants jump straight into big‑firm engineering and spend weeks paying high rates just to discover what they don’t want. DraftHiveCo gives you the equivalent of a preliminary engineering study—but without the big‑firm bill.
You get fast, front‑end factory and line concepts that are grounded in how your team actually runs the plant. That typically means 30–40% fewer design hours spent on layout rework and a quicker path to a buildable solution.
DraftHiveCo helps you validate your “Wildly Important Goals” for a project, narrow options, and land on a solid concept with minimal internal time investment—before your licensed PE or integrator ever opens a full design model.
DraftHiveCo is run by an engineer who has already lifted OEE, cut changeovers, and delivered six‑figure savings inside real plants—so every concept is built on results, not theory.
We execute accurately and professionally to avoid constantly receiving project change orders.
