Whitehorse CAD, founded in 2017, provides design consultancy for sectors including medical devices, oil and gas, and artisan projects. The business was established after the founder faced redundancy and sought flexibility and control over work-life balance. Initial challenges included securing clients, but industry experience and networking helped overcome this. SolidWorks was chosen for its familiarity and capability, enabling high-quality designs at low cost. Solid Solutions supported the purchase process, which was quick and hassle-free, and provided ongoing assistance. Contractors play a vital role in helping businesses lacking design infrastructure deliver projects and integrate SolidWorks effectively.
