Leveret Systems
Digital thread for manufacturers
CAD → ERP → BI, connected

One connected data model — from CAD to the shop floor to the boardroom

Scaling manufacturers lose margin to disconnected CAD, spreadsheets and ERP. We build the digital thread — your systems structured around your ERP and joined to CAD and applied AI — so data flows cleanly from design, through build, to support. Fewer errors, faster quotes, one trusted view.

For regulated manufacturers

Stop re-proving certification evidence you already hold

Engineers lose hours hunting through prior submissions, standards and test reports for evidence that already exists. We build an assistant that answers from your own standards and your own past certification evidence — every answer cited to the governing clause, with a deterministic rules-engine gate in front of the generative layer. Deterministic where compliance demands it, AI-assisted where it saves time, human-signed-off throughout. A day or two on site for discovery; the build itself runs remotely in your own tenant. And the destination is bigger: bind the rules to the parametric values in your CAD models, and a configuration is checked as it is designed — the doorway to generative design within compliant bounds.

One product familyFour weeks£12,500 fixedYour data stays in your tenant

Your data stays yours. Pilots run inside your own cloud tenant wherever possible; otherwise in a UK-resident, single-client environment stood up for you alone. Your documents are never used to train models. At the end of the engagement everything is handed over or deleted — your choice, in writing.

What we build

The digital thread

One connected system, not a menu of tools. We structure your business around your ERP and integrate it with CAD and applied AI, so data flows cleanly from design, through build, to in-service support — the connective tissue that decides whether a scaling manufacturer keeps its margin. Very few people combine all three disciplines; each layer below is a live demo built from a real client system.

Why Leveret

Three disciplines, one accountable partner

This is not a systems contract; it is a strategic capability — and very few people combine the three disciplines the digital thread needs. One partner spanning design, build and through-life means the foundation is built knowing where it has to go: no re-work, nothing lost between suppliers, one point of accountability for the outcome.

Business systems & integration

20 years across construction and manufacturing, hands-on with APIs, event-driven middleware and data flows. On the last manufacturing engagement, fragmented legacy tools were replaced with a unified platform of ~78 integrated endpoints across sales, manufacturing and web.

CAD integration

Engineering-data and CAD pipelines (Autodesk APS / SolidWorks) that connect the design model to the business systems and shop floor that turn it into product — and, at the far end, bind the model's parametric values to the compliance rules so a design is checked as it is drawn. MSc BIM & Integrated Design; seven years in digital-engineering development.

AI architecture

Production AI on a "generative components between deterministic gates" principle — retrieval-augmented and agentic systems with responsible-AI guardrails and mandatory citation, including a clause-cited rules-engine-plus-RAG for regulatory compliance. MSc Data Science & AI (Distinction).

BIM PIPELINE · PORTFOLIO

From source file to factory floor

Real models translated through Autodesk Platform Services and recorded straight from the SVF2 viewer. Fusion, Revit, IFC, point clouds — the same pipeline, drives our customers' Bills of Materials, work orders and digital twins.

Who we are

The Team

Leveret Systems is led by Eben Joubert — an engineer with a background in CAD pipelines, cloud data platforms and production AI. Every engagement is principal-led: the person you speak to is the person who designs and builds the system. Where a project needs more hands, specialists come in from an established associate network.

Selected work

Case Studies

The digital thread in production. Open any one for the full breakdown — the first is the clause-cited compliance assistant that the certification-evidence pilot is built on; the others connect CAD, ERP-class data and BI on one model.

AI in production

Six AI agents shipped — running every day, in production

Each one is a generative component between deterministic gates — the gates decide; the model only drafts.

Email Triage Agent

Two-pass classification on every inbound — intent, sentiment, entities, draft reply.

Revit Element Classifier

Native Revit properties + position rules → 38 derived element classes.

Supplier Risk Forecaster

Predicts slip risk per supplier from historical lead-time variance + live signals.

Customer Journey Stitcher

Unifies every GA4 session, quote, email and CRM event per customer — semantic match.

Quote Draft Assistant

Turns a customer enquiry into a draft quote with line items priced from catalogue.

Internal Dev Copilot

Reviews every internal PR against codebase conventions + flags risky migrations.

Engagement

Pricing

Most engagements start small: a fixed-price, four-week pilot at £12,500 on one product family, so you see the value on your own data before committing to anything larger. From there, one lead and one blended rate, with intensity that flexes as the system matures — a typical embedded engagement runs to roughly £140,000 a year. Capacity flexes; the rate does not escalate between stages.

Who it's for

Where the digital thread pays off

Aerospace & Cabin Interiors

Certified programmes: CAD-driven configuration, airworthiness/TSO evidence, weight roll-up and as-built traceability.

Configured & Engineer-to-Order Products

CAD-to-quote — BOM, weight, cost and lead-time generated from the model; catalogue, options and pricing kept in sync.

Precision & Composite Manufacturing

Engineering BOM to manufacturing BOM with no re-keying; engineering-change control and shop-floor data capture.

Industrial Equipment & Machinery

Design-to-build-to-service on one data model; spares, warranty and in-service data turned into a profit centre.

Construction & AEC

The same connected-data discipline in BIM/CDE — ISO 19650, Autodesk APS, digital engineering.
