The challenge

US home builders work at volume and pace, needing lot-specific drawings turned around quickly and consistently for each plot — a steady, high-throughput requirement well suited to an outsourced partner working across time zones.

Our approach

Outsource CAD produces lot-specific drawings for two US home builders at around 80 per week, working to each builder's templates and delivering on a dependable two-day turnaround — with the UK/Ireland time difference effectively giving builders overnight production.

The results

  • Around 80 lot-specific drawings per week across two builders.
  • Consistent 2-day turnaround, with the time-zone difference as an overnight advantage.
  • A continuous, ongoing workload — evidence of reliability at volume.
