Automation That Pays for Itself

I help Brevard County manufacturers eliminate waste, reduce downtime, and get more output from the team they already have — from the factory floor to the front office.

Sound Familiar?

Most shops I work with have the same three problems.

🔧

Your best operator is a bottleneck

You can't clone your top machinist — but you can automate the repetitive work that keeps them from the jobs only they can do.

⏱️

You're paying people to babysit machines

Manual monitoring, manual data entry, manual inspection. Every hour spent watching a machine run is an hour not spent on skilled work.

📋

Every quote takes hours and you're still losing bids

Excel-based quoting, paper compliance docs, production data on whiteboards. The shops winning contracts have systems that move faster.

The Sully Full-Stack Process

Five phases. 90 days. Your operation transformed.

1

Audit

Week 1–2

Walk your floor. Map every process — mechanical and digital. Identify bottlenecks, measure waste, project ROI.

2

Design

Week 3–5

SolidWorks models, dashboard wireframes, agent specs, data schemas. You approve everything before a single line of code is written.

3

Build

Week 6–10

Mechanical build, PLC programming, dashboard development, agent setup, data pipelines. Everything bench-tested before it touches your floor.

4

Install

Week 11–12

On-site installation with minimal disruption. Software deployed, agents connected, integrations verified, safety checks passed.

5

Train & Monitor

Week 13+

Your team trained on every system. Documentation so anyone can run it. 6 months of remote monitoring included.

20% efficiency gain in 90 days

or I keep working until you get it. No extra charge.

How It Works

Every engagement starts with the audit. From there, we go as deep as your operation needs.

Step 1

Automation Audit

$500

I come to your shop. Walk the floor. Map every process — mechanical and digital. You get a written report with prioritized recommendations and projected ROI for each opportunity.

  • On-site mechanical process assessment
  • Digital workflow and data system mapping
  • Written report with prioritized automation opportunities
  • ROI projections for each recommendation
  • Delivered within 48 hours

Timeline: 1 week

Guarantee: If the audit doesn't surface at least one opportunity worth 10x the audit cost, full refund.

Step 2

Automation Pilot

$15,000 – $25,000

Pick the highest-ROI opportunity from the audit. We build it, test it, prove it works. One process, one clear win — no commitment beyond the pilot.

  • Single-process automation from any service category
  • Design, build, deploy, and documentation
  • 30-day post-launch support
  • Measurable results within 60 days

Timeline: 4–6 weeks

Guarantee: Measurable throughput or efficiency improvement within 60 days.

Step 3

Full-Stack Automation Package

$40,000 – $75,000

The full package. Every system connected. Every process optimized. Your shop running like a machine that runs machines — from the factory floor to the front office.

  • Multi-process automation across factory floor and business operations
  • Custom production dashboard with real-time metrics
  • AI agent setup (quoting, compliance, reporting)
  • Business workflow automation (3+ workflows)
  • Custom data system design and integration
  • Installation, commissioning, and safety verification
  • Employee training (5 people, 3 days)
  • 6-month remote monitoring
  • Complete documentation and runbooks

Timeline: 90 days

Guarantee: 20% efficiency gain within 90 days — or I keep working until you get it. No extra charge.

Ongoing Partnership

Monthly Retainer

$3,000 – $8,000/mo

I stay on as your automation partner. Monthly optimization, new integrations, agent tuning, and feature expansion. Your systems keep getting better.

Embedded Automation Partner

$10,000 – $15,000/mo

Dedicated automation partner embedded in your operation. Continuous improvement across all systems, new process development as you grow, staff training and mentoring.

Why Shops Trust Me

One engineer handles the entire stack — mechanical, electrical, controls, software, and AI.

Typical integrator

6–12 months

Sully's Engineering

90 days

One engineer, no handoffs, no committee meetings, no change orders that triple the budget.

67 skills across 6 engineering categories

7+ years designing and commissioning custom machines

15+ custom machines built and deployed

Named inventor on provisional patents

Fanuc robotics, PLC programming, machine vision

Built a 16,000-line custom dashboard from scratch

4 autonomous AI agents running production workflows

CSWA certified — SolidWorks mechanical design

I take on one full integration per month.

That's not a marketing trick — it's math. A proper automation project needs my full attention, and I won't split focus between two shops.

Common Questions

Why is this faster than a typical integrator?+
One person, zero handoffs. I don't have a sales team, a project manager, a design team, and an install team. I am all of those people. That cuts months off the timeline.
What does the guarantee actually mean?+
We agree on a specific efficiency metric before we start — OEE improvement, labor reduction, throughput increase. If you don't hit 20% improvement within 90 days, I provide additional support at no cost until you do.
Can we start with a pilot instead of the full package?+
Absolutely. Most Full-Stack engagements start as a pilot. Prove the concept on one process, then expand. It's lower risk and you see results faster.
What industries have you worked in?+
Industrial automation, medical devices, consumer electronics, fitness equipment, and packaging. The engineering principles transfer across domains.
Do I need to buy new equipment?+
Not always. Many projects work with your existing equipment plus controls upgrades. When new hardware is needed, I handle vendor selection and negotiation.
What happens after the engagement ends?+
You own everything — code, designs, documentation. Your team is trained to operate it. If you want ongoing optimization, the monthly retainer keeps things improving.
