Digital, Distributed Manufacturing: A Boon Against Disaster

Xometry’s online quoting platform is more relevant than ever as many designers, engineers, and supply chain professionals have moved to remote work to mitigate and stabilize the spread of COVID-19 (Coronavirus). In the past, Xometry’s digital quoting and distributed manufacturing network has been put to the test when natural disasters, such as hurricanes, disrupted local businesses and manufacturers alike—even forcing some to leave their workplace for safety. With critical deadlines approaching, they were able to rely on Xometry’s network for custom manufacturing through qualified shops in unimpacted regions.

Xometry’s decentralized services allow engineers and purchasing managers across major industries like automotive, consumer products, aerospace, and more to maintain standard business operations while working remotely. We can also ship parts to anywhere in the world with expedited, standard, and economy delivery options. Best of all, using Xometry does not require any specialized software—just an internet browser.

Get Your Parts Delivered to You, Fresh

Some of the inspiration around Xometry’s manufacturing on demand platform was taken from outside the industry—including restaurant delivery services. This, paired with Xometry’s elastic supply chain, allows uninterrupted output with the ease of online ordering and tracking. Need fresh parts delivered to your door? We can make it happen.

Xometry's Order Status Tracker

When you order parts you can access your order details online and check on your live order status. Internally, we call this the “pizza tracker” and it helps both internal staff and customers know what stages parts are in during production. Because every project is new custom manufactured plastic and metal parts, the Xometry team has automated its supply chain to work on thousands of projects concurrently while maintaining part-by-part quality assurance and on-time delivery.
