★ Michigan-based problem solvers

We bolt the bits to the bolts so your business just works.

Part workshop, part code shop. We take smart off-the-shelf parts — mechanical bits, electrical components, and custom software — and plug them together into practical fixes for the everyday headaches slowing your operation down.

Tell us your headache → See what we build

Got a process held together with sticky notes, spreadsheets, and duct tape?

We build the real fix.

What we bolt together

We're makers and integrators. We don't reinvent the wheel — we find the right ready-made parts and assemble them into something that actually solves your problem.

Workflow Automation

Kill the copy-paste, the manual data entry, the “someone has to remember to do this.” We wire your tools together so the busywork runs itself.

Custom Software & Tools

Dashboards, internal apps, trackers, and integrations built around how you actually work — not whatever an off-the-shelf product forces on you.

Smart Device Setups

Sensors, controllers, and low-voltage electronics — selected, configured, and connected to your software so the physical world talks to your data.

Mechanical Tinkering

Need a jig, a fixture, a gadget, or an off-the-shelf mechanism adapted to your space? We assemble parts into a working contraption that does the job.

Make It All Talk

Your machines, your apps, and your spreadsheets shouldn't live on separate islands. We connect the dots so data flows where it needs to go.

Prototypes & Proof-of-Concepts

Have an idea but don't know if it'll work? We rough out a quick, scrappy version so you can test it for real before you commit.

How we get it done

No jargon, no 80-page proposals. Just a straight path from "this is annoying" to "huh, that's handy."

01
Listen

We sit down, watch how the work really happens, and pin down the headache that's actually costing you time and money.
02
Sketch

We map out the parts — what's off-the-shelf, what needs custom glue — and show you a plain-English plan with a real price.
03
Build

We bolt the bits together, test it against the messy real world, and tweak until it holds up on a normal Tuesday.
04
Hand Off

We show your team how to run it, leave clear notes, and stick around for support so it keeps working long after we leave.

Two halves of the same toolbox

Bits & Bolts Consulting exists because the best fixes usually live in the gap between the physical and the digital — and most shops only do one side.

The bits are the software: the code, the automations, the apps that make information move. The bolts are the physical side: the devices, sensors, and mechanisms that make things happen in the real world. We're comfortable with both, so we can solve the whole problem instead of half of it.

We're a small, hands-on shop. You talk to the people doing the work, we move fast, and we're honest about what's worth building and what isn't.
