Unlock $25,000 Toward Your First Automation Project

Risk-Free Automation Roadmap

Factories don’t grow by accident. They grow because someone takes ownership. That’s what our Automation Assessment is built for. We give you the clarity to act, the data to justify your investment, and up to $25,000 credited toward your first custom machine build. It’s not a cost. It’s a down payment on growing your business.

Your Roadmap to ROI

Start with an industrial automation assessment built for ROI, not guesswork. Most plants lose money where no one’s looking, through wasted motion, inconsistent labor, and process delays. Our Automation Assessment reveals where automation can pay off, and how to structure your project for real returns.

How it works:
  • Free virtual consultation to verify ROI-worthy opportunities
  • Paid Automation Assessment credited toward your first build (up to $25,000)
  • Clear, scoped roadmap you can act on
Don’t Waste Time on the Wrong Project

Before you commit to anything, we offer a complimentary screening call to verify that your operation has automation potential worth pursuing. If it’s not a fit, we’ll tell you.

FAQs

Still have questions about industrial automation and automation integrator services, or how DEVELOP LLC can benefit your business? We’ve compiled answers to some of our most frequently asked questions:

Our Single Source Guarantee means your entire automation integration project is delivered in-house, from engineering and fabrication to controls and installation. No handoffs, no third parties. This is how we ensure quality, reduce risk, and move faster than most industrial automation companies.

Automated manufacturing can help you:

  • Increase production capacity and throughput
  • Improve product quality and consistency
  • Reduce labor costs and operational expenses
  • Enhance workplace safety
  • Address labor shortages and skills gaps

If you’re ready to modernize, automated manufacturing is how you build a future-ready operation.

ROI depends on labor costs, production gains, quality improvements, and downtime reduction. But you don’t have to figure it out alone.

  • Initial investment costs for automation systems
  • Labor savings from automated manufacturing
  • Increased productivity and efficiency
  • Reduced waste and errors

To make this process easier, we offer two free Automation ROI Calculators:

  • Standard ROI Calculator: This calculator helps you compare the cost of manual labor to the cost of an automated solution, giving you a clear picture of the potential savings and payback period.
  • Reverse ROI Calculator: This version allows you to set a target ROI and then determine the budget required to achieve that goal.

Download our free calculators to get started with your automation ROI analysis. These tools are part of our free Automation Assessment resources, designed to help you justify and scope a smart custom machine build.

As a Wisconsin-based automation systems integrator, we work with companies across the U.S. in sectors like:

  • Automation for: Architectural Extrusion, Cannabis & Hemp, Cosmetics & Personal Care, Electrical Extrusion, Electronics, Food & Beverage, Life Sciences, Logistics & Warehousing, Paper and Printing, and Plastics.
  • Embedded Hardware/Manufacturing for: Aerospace, Automotive, Construction Equipment, Industrial Manufacturing, Industrial Products, Mining Equipment, and Railway.

The timeline for an industrial automation project can vary significantly depending on the complexity, scope, and specific requirements of your automation systems and design. It’s important to understand that implementing a comprehensive automation solution isn’t simply a matter of “just buying a robot.” It’s a strategic investment in your company’s long-term growth, similar to acquiring new commercial premises or expanding your delivery fleet.

For custom automation projects, the timeline can range from 6 months to 2 years or more. However, if our pre-engineered Modular Robot System (MRS) fits your needs, the implementation process can be significantly faster, typically ranging from 1 to 3 months.
Our team at DEVELOP LLC will work closely with you to create a realistic timeline and ensure your project stays on track, meeting your specific needs and goals.

We take the time to thoroughly assess your requirements, design a tailored solution, and implement it to minimize disruption to your operations. We’re committed to providing clear communication and regular updates throughout the entire process, ensuring you’re informed and involved every step of the way.
