Tech-enabled, mid-market traditional, PCB / electronics, injection mold + die-cast, casting, metal-additive, composites, surface-treatment, defense-suppliers, and cobot-integrators — ten firm sectors on one Common Manufacturing Protocol federation. Quote in seconds, schedule in minutes, attest as you ship.
Ten firm sectors. One protocol federation.
Tech-enabled shops (Hadrian, SendCutSend, OSH Cut, Atomic Industries, MacroFab, VulcanForms) are the wedge — software-first, vertical-integration-native, CMP-native reference customers. Mid-market traditional shops follow via rollup-platform partnerships and cobot-integrator channels. Defense-suppliers and surface-treatment shops onboard through customer-prime cybersecurity flow-down and Nadcap-driven mandates.
The Common Manufacturing Protocol writes the missing layer — real-time capacity APIs, atomic quoting, cross-firm capability discovery, federated traceability — that turns a fragmented industry into an interoperable network. Quoting collapses from weeks to seconds. Utilization moves from 25–30% toward the production ceiling. Cobot fleets coordinate across vendor boundaries.

Where the value lives
Three firm-sector wedges.
Across the ten firm sectors served, three patterns concentrate the value: tech-enabled shops as CMP-native references, mid-market + specialty shops onboarding via channel partners, and defense-suppliers facing the CMMC + Nadcap wedge.
Tech-enabled
The CMP-native wedge. Hadrian, SendCutSend, OSH Cut, RMFG, MacroFab, Atomic Industries, VulcanForms — software-first shops adopt the protocol as their default. Reference customers and protocol co-authors.
- CMP file interchange + DFM (STEP / 3MF / Gerber / IPC-2581)
- Real-time capacity API + atomic quoting (3D → quote)
- Shop FM + discrete-combinatorial scheduling CLO
- Cobot fleet coordination across vendor boundaries
Mid-market + PCBA + mold + casting + additive + composites
CMP retrofit at scale. Rollup-platform partnerships, cobot-integrator channels, and Theorem-financed deployments bring CMP, Shop FM, and CLO into mid-market shops without capex.
- Retrofit CMP onto legacy controllers (Fanuc, Heidenhain, Mazak)
- Channel-partner deployment via rollup platforms
- Cobot retrofit via Standard Bots, Path, GrayMatter, Forge Robotics
- Per-vertical FMs — PCBA, Tool-design, Casting-design, Layup, Cure
Defense-suppliers + surface-treatment
CMMC + Nadcap + customer-prime cybersecurity flow-down. Defense supply-chain participation under CMMC Dec 2026, classified-program isolation, FEOC + DPA Title III chain-of-custody.
- CMMC L2/L3 self-assessment + C3PAO audit-pack assembly
- Nadcap AC7000-series audit-pack for surface treatment
- Cross-prime supplier registry + cybersecurity flow-down
- FEOC + DPA Title III + Buy-American chain-of-custody
From file to reserved slot
The full network, in a single loop.
An inbound 3D file flows through CMP file interchange, real-time capacity matching, and atomic quoting in under two seconds — across the network, without email, without PDFs.
A 3D file becomes a reserved slot in seconds
CMP file interchange, real-time capacity matching, atomic quoting — sealed across the federation without bespoke integration.
Manufacturing is the connective tissue
Defense programs, EV cells, aerospace structures, drone fleets, semiconductor reshoring — all eventually become parts that contract manufacturing produces.
F-35, B-21, GBSD, hypersonic — tier-N components, PCBA, additive, composites, surface-treatment all run through CMP-federated shops.
Specialty alloys, prepreg, resins, plating chemicals — material genealogy + CBAM attestation rides on the same provenance schema.
Standard Bots, Path, GrayMatter, Forge Robotics — multi-vendor cobot fleet coordination via the CMP integrator SDK and Open-RMF.
Capex + RaaS financing for tech-enabled mfg, cobot retrofit leasing, cyber-insurance discount via OT Security posture.
