Automotive seat design and manufacturing with OEM and aftermarket focus
Performance Seats manufactures performance-oriented automotive seating across OEM, aftermarket, and specialty segments (transit, aerospace, office). The tech stack—CATIA, UG NX, SolidWorks, AutoCAD—reflects a design-centric, CAD-heavy operation typical of precision manufacturing. Active projects span motorsport certification (FIA standards), quality systems (ISO 9001, D-FMEA), and composite tooling, while the pain-point cluster—cycle times, quality cost reduction, design compliance, waste minimization—signals operational maturity focused on efficiency and standardization rather than platform innovation.
