“"It has been a privilege to work with Sketch over the past 2 years with all work being completed on time and to a very high standard.

More recently Sketch have supported us in transitioning to a new CAD system, that has enabled us to be more productive and have a more collaborative approach to our Mechanical Design process"

Adrian Jones - Manager - Production Engineering, NPI & Quality

AMAG Technology

“We have been working with SKETCH for a year and have been very impressed with their design and manufacturing knowledge and experience. They have integrated into our engineering team seamlessly and have embraced our way of working, providing valuable feedback and discussion. The quality of the work delivered (including drawings, templates, tolerance stack ups and manufacturing processes) is excellent and they have shown a great commitment to support us during tight deadlines. We look forward to our continued relationship with SKETCH.”
