Nefab operates a large, geographically distributed manufacturing and packaging business with 250 engineers embedded in operations—a rare ratio that signals heavy investment in design and automation. The tech stack reflects a hybrid industrial footprint: CAD suites (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, NX, ArtiosCAD) dominate design workflows, while SAP and Salesforce manage order-to-delivery. Active projects center on post-acquisition integration, regional supply planning, and prototype validation, indicating a business scaling through M&A while modernizing internal process tooling (CMMS adoption underway).
