Our Process
At Form, maximum impact begins on day one. The earlier we’re involved, the more holistically we can design systems that work in tandem — not as isolated parts, but as coordinated components. That early engagement is what enables our end-to-end services and sets the foundation of Design for Manufacturing (DfM).
What is Design for Manufacturing?
Design for Manufacturing is the practice of engineering components so they’re easier, faster, and more precise to build, ship, and install. It means thinking ahead: aligning parts, reducing steps, and simplifying how systems come together in the field. At its core, DfM aims to eliminate unnecessary measurement, minimize material handling, and create self-guided assemblies. Instead of designing elements independently and hoping they fit together later, DfM allows us to engineer components that locate and support other components.
Reducing Waste By Design
Measurement and material handling are two of the biggest sources of waste in construction. Our end-to-end approach — designing, coordinating, fabricating, and delivering complete assemblies — is built to eliminate both. By pre-locating components and engineering assemblies that guide themselves, we reduce the need for manual measurement and repetitive handling, ultimately resulting in a safer and faster installation on-site that alleviates significant labor demands.
Our philosophy is simple: If we can make multiple components install together, accurately and consistently, we do it.
Innovative Design for Installation Efficiency
When DfM principles guide a project from the outset, the impact is macro-level:
- Systems can be coordinated as a single unit.
- Adjacent pieces can be redefined or combined.
- Assemblies can be used to locate future assemblies to minimize redundant layout.
- More elements can be integrated into an intelligent assembly.
With our end-to-end approach, our design process allows us to improve efficiency at all levels while adding real value and reducing waste.
