  • "V6 reduces the work I need to do to get the order into production. I send the job straight out from V6 to the team on the cutting floor, and 9 times out of 10 the team can make a job comfortably without any external input. The brilliant thing about V6 is it is highly customizable, with the technical depth to control the complete BOM. You can build everything from scratch, including curves, rakes, and interesting shapes, then display in detail how all the materials will fit together. This allowed us to provide a fully comprehensive estimate, including a visual of what the item will look like once it’s manufactured."
