Why Lattitive

Built to protect British manufacturing — not to commoditise it.

UK manufacturing only

Every supplier is vetted, British and production-ready. No offshoring, no customs risk, no data leaving the UK.

Confidential by default

Standard confidentiality on every RFQ. Enhanced NDA gating available for sensitive geometry and IP.

Fair market pricing

Trimmed-median pricing strips outliers so customers pay a sustainable rate and suppliers keep their margin.

No race to the bottom

Suppliers compete on lead time, reliability and capacity — never on who can cut their price the deepest.

Vetted manufacturing partners

Tiered supplier programme rewards quality, on-time delivery and customer reviews — not just low bids.

AI-powered RFQ intake

Upload files or describe the part — our intake suggests technology, complexity and the right supplier mix.

Pricing philosophy

Fair market pricing, every time.

Lattitive uses a trimmed median across all qualifying supplier bids. We strip the highest and lowest, then settle on the median of what's left. Customers pay a single, predictable network price. Suppliers keep margins that fund quality, capacity and people.
