For metal fabrication shops

From RFQ to invoice, one system that speaks fab.

FabProposal runs your quoting, production boards, purchasing, time tracking, and T&M billing — built around how a fab shop actually estimates work.

Approved shops get a 30-day free trial — no card required.

Quoting that knows fabrication

Sheet, structural, and assembly pricing from your own labor rates, metal table, and 2,000+ structural shapes — not a generic calculator.

RFQs straight from your customers

Customers submit RFQs with drawings in their own portal, watch quote status live, and send POs back without email ping-pong.

Kanban for the whole shop

Quote board for the front office, production board for the floor — with job cards showing planned hours per operation.

Time & materials, tracked and billed

Clock time on the floor, consume material at receiving, and invoice from actuals at the rates you quoted.

Vendor quoting built in

Request vendor and subcontractor pricing from inside the estimate, parse replies with AI, and apply prices in one click.

Your documents, your branding

Branded proposals, job cards, packing slips, and invoices — plus SharePoint sync for every file, organized per job.
