The Challenge
Reframe Systems, a prefab home manufacturer, needed to coordinate complex, custom home assembly across a factory production floor where each home has a unique configuration. Traditional construction timelines of 6–18 months were incompatible with their factory-built model.
The Solution
Built Tulip apps to manage the full factory production flow for prefab home modules, including digital work instructions tailored to each home's design, real-time production tracking, and a 9-minute design-to-floor-update loop that propagates engineering changes almost instantly.
Results
Builds homes 2.5x faster than traditional construction. Achieved a 3–4 month factory build plus 1 month on-site timeline (vs. 6–18 months traditional). Operates a 9-minute design-to-floor-update loop for engineering changes.
Key Takeaways
Prefab/modular construction can leverage manufacturing execution tools to achieve speed advantages over site-built construction. The 9-minute design-to-floor update loop is a uniquely powerful capability for a product where customization changes are frequent.
