Executive Summary

DCM Inc. specializes in providing engineering drawing conversions from paper-based systems to electronic or CAD based systems. To accomplish this, the company takes a 'production line' approach using a combination of software and electronic techniques together with manual manipulation, for the final drawing output. In order to reduce overheads and provide minimum cost to its customers, DCM manages these unique proprietary systems and project management methodologies to insure the highest quality to our clients.

The business has developed rapidly since it was founded in 2000. Sales have grown by 25% annually. The company is solidly positioned in North America.

The DCM Inc. customer base covers a vast range of industries from large Utilities and Engineering and Architect firms to Municipalities, School Boards, Hospitals and Manufacturing enterprises. All require paper-based drawings to be converted to electronic CAD drawings.

The company has developed a significant number of accounts that have drawing inventories ranging from 1 to 50,000, to be converted. Customers utilizing DCM services can continue to depend on cost effective pricing, fast turn-around times (3-5 business days) and exceptional quality output.

Simple automated (or canned) software solutions do not offer quality or "ready-to-use" output without considerable user interaction and clean up. Moreover, these types of softwares cannot offer the "value-added" features that DCM incorporates into its conversions. These features are required to create the next generation of data linked, "smart drawings".

The company is continuing to develop strategic alliance partnerships throughout the world, as well DCM is growing a network of independent sales representatives and dealers throughout North America.

All the while, a solid client base is made up of over 200 smaller repeat customers.
