Struggling with costly mistakes, slow estimates, and production delays? LFT Strategies is here to change that. Our approach to Truss Design & Estimating puts precision, speed, and profitability at the center of your operation. With over 78+ years of hands-on experience, we know what works — and we teach your team how to do it.
Design isn’t just drafting — it’s engineering your entire process. Precise designs aren’t just for looks — they drive efficiency on the production floor and improve communication with customers. If your team isn’t designing with speed and accuracy, you’re already behind.
Clear, precise truss designs reduce costly errors, rework, and field issues.
Win more jobs. Protect your margins. Be first to market. A strong estimating process is your plant’s competitive edge. Accurate estimates don’t just close deals — they make sure you’re pricing for profit. If you’re losing bids to competitors or eating costs on the backend, it’s time to rethink your approach.
