When I started Archetype, the mission was simple. Cabinet shops and millwork manufacturers needed shop drawings, and they needed a team that actually understood the work. Not generalist drafters. Not interchangeable outsourcing. Woodworking specialists who could produce drawings the shop floor could actually build from.
That mission has not changed. Today, it just got a much bigger platform.
I am writing to share that Archetype is joining INNERGY. INNERGY has acquired Archetype, and our 220 associates are now part of the leading platform for the custom millwork and cabinetry industry.
Why we are joining forces with INNERGY
INNERGY customers were running into the same problem our broader customer base has been telling us about for years: not enough drafting capacity, not enough specialized expertise, not enough velocity.
We started taking on their work, and the feedback was strong enough that we both knew this was bigger than a partnership.
INNERGY built the leading ERP for our industry. They acquired Microvellum, the leading design and engineering software. Now they have us, the leading drafting service. For the first time, a custom millwork business can run their entire workflow on a single platform: ERP, design software, and drafting capacity, all in one place.
This is what our customers have been asking for. We could not be more aligned on where this industry needs to go.
What this means for our customers
Nothing about how we serve you changes. Same team. Same standards. Same workflow. Same point of contact. The work we are doing for you continues without disruption.
What does change is what becomes possible. Being part of INNERGY means we can invest more in the tools and the infrastructure that make your drawings faster and better. It means we can grow capacity to meet demand we have had to turn away. And it means our integration with the INNERGY ERP gives our customers a level of workflow transparency that has never existed in this industry. Every drawing, every revision, every status update, all visible inside the platform.
Your data, your IP, and your project history are protected exactly as they always have been.
