The Problem

CMF decisions are stuck in the 1990s

Your team is choosing materials that define million-pound products — using email attachments, PowerPoint decks, and physical samples that take weeks to ship. Decisions get lost. Approvals stall. Mistakes cost fortunes.

01

Scattered information

Material specs live in spreadsheets, images in shared drives, approvals in email threads. Nobody has the full picture at any one time.

02

Slow decision cycles

Getting a material approved means chasing multiple stakeholders across departments, time zones, and file versions. Weeks become months.

03

Costly surprises

Without seeing materials in context before tooling, mistakes surface late — when a change order costs 10x what it would have during selection.

Features

Everything your CMF workflow needs. Nothing it doesn't.

Material Library & Zones

Organise every material by product and zone. Browse, filter, and shortlist from a centralised library shared across your entire team.

Side-by-Side Compare

Select any materials and compare them on cost, durability, sustainability, and supplier — all in one view, no more tabbing between files.

3D Visualisation

See materials applied to your product in photorealistic 3D before committing. Verify colour, texture, and finish without physical prototypes.

Approval Workflows

Shortlist, approve, or reject with one click. Every decision is logged with who, when, and why — a complete audit trail for compliance.

AI Material Suggestions

Get intelligent recommendations for material combinations that work together visually, structurally, and within budget.

Real-Time Collaboration

Designers, engineers, and procurement work in the same space. Comments, status updates, and decisions happen in context — not in email.

Why CMFStack

The numbers speak for themselves

60%

Faster decisions

Centralised information and built-in approvals eliminate the back-and-forth that bogs down every material selection.

£250K+

Saved per programme

Catching material issues before tooling avoids the late-stage change orders that blow budgets on every major launch.

40%

Fewer physical samples

Photorealistic 3D previews let your team eliminate candidates digitally, drastically cutting sample shipping and waste.

How It Works

From chaos to clarity in four steps

Step 1

Create your project

Set up zones for each part of your product — seats, doors, console, headliner — whatever your product needs.

Step 2

Browse & shortlist

Explore the material library, shortlist options per zone, and compare candidates side by side.

Step 3

Visualise in context

See your shortlisted materials on the actual product in 3D. Verify colour, texture, and finish without physical prototypes.

Step 4

Approve & export

Stakeholders approve with full audit trails. Export final selections into your PLM or supply chain systems.
