03— Capabilities

What we ship — and what we tailor.

Every engagement ships the same production-grade commerce stack. The configurator and pricing rules are tailored to your product, brand, and integrations.

Always shipped

  • CatalogHierarchical product taxonomy with variants, attributes, and SEO.
  • 3D configuratorReal-time WebGL scene, custom-built around your product geometry.
  • Cart & checkoutAddress validation, tax, shipping, and Stripe payment — production-grade.
  • Customer portalOrders, addresses, invoices, saved designs, project history.
  • AdminCMS, content editor, entity CRUD, and a settings surface for your team.
  • SearchFaceted search across catalog and configured variants, indexed live.
  • EmailTransactional and lifecycle templates, branded and deliverable.
  • ObservabilityVercel analytics, error reporting, and access to logs.

Custom to your product

  • Configurator UXStep flow, validation, and pricing rules tailored to your product family.
  • 3D sceneGeometry, materials, lighting — modelled to your brand and product range.
  • IntegrationsERP, CRM, shipping, accounting — whatever your operations need.
  • Brand & contentTypography, palette, and editorial direction — your identity, not a template.
05— Method

Six weeks. Three phases. No surprises.

01Week 1

Scope & catalog audit

We sit with your sales and product teams. We model your catalog, surface the rules, and write the spec. You see exactly what we'll build before we start.

02Weeks 2–6

Build to MVP

We ship the full platform in parallel — configurator, checkout, portal, admin, and renderer. Reviewable demos every Friday. No big-bang reveals.

03Week 6

Production handoff

Deployed on your infrastructure, your domain, your code. Trained on your team. We stay on retainer for tuning, not maintenance.

— The platform

What is Forge?

Forge is the commerce platform every SBFS project is built on — catalog, 3D configurator, cart, checkout, customer portal, and admin. It is already engineered and proven across seven manufacturers, so instead of rebuilding the plumbing we spend the six weeks shaping it to your product. That is why the timeline is weeks, not quarters.

01Pre-built, not from scratch

The hard 80% — payments, accounts, security, admin — is already done and battle-tested. The six weeks go into the 20% that is actually yours: your product, your pricing rules, your brand.

02You own all of it

At launch we hand over the full source code and the database, hosted in your region. No license, no per-seat fees, no lock-in — the platform is yours to keep.

03Built to be changed

Every screen, price rule, and configurator can be changed in your own copy of the code — no waiting on us, no starting over. Your team keeps building the day after launch.

04One team, end to end

Design, 3D, engineering, and deployment all come off the same stack, so there are no integrations to stitch together and nothing falls between vendors.

06— Why six weeks

One stack we control. Six weeks instead of six months.

We hit six weeks because we built and own the stack we ship on. Less integration risk, less custom code, more time spent on what actually differs between your product and the next one.

Timeline.

Six weeks from kickoff to production. Every engagement. The stack absorbs the boilerplate so the team focuses on your configurator, your pricing rules, and your brand.

IP & code.

You own the source, hosted on your infrastructure, with the database in your region. We hand off the repo at launch — no licensing, no per-seat fees.

Customization.

Forge is the substrate, not the cage. Every block, entity, and admin screen can be overridden or replaced in your repo without forking. We've done it for every client.

Operations after launch.

You can keep building on Forge with your own team, hire someone else, or stay with us on retainer. We've designed the engagement so you're never locked in.

07 — Who you are hiring

Juan Acosta. Founder & principal engineer.

You are not buying agency time. You are hiring a senior engineer with a decade of building 3D configurators — the same person who wrote Forge, who scopes your project, who writes the code, and who sits on the call when something breaks.

SBFS is a Delaware C-Corp operating from Cali, Colombia. Small, by design. Five clients at a time, deeply.

08— Security & terms

What Procurement asks about. Answered here.

We are a small team, but we engineer for enterprise constraints from day one. Here is where we stand on the questions every Procurement team asks.

Data residency
The database lives in the region you pick — US, EU, or wherever your customers are. We do not move it.
IP ownership
You own the source. You own the configurator. The repo lives in your GitHub or GitLab from day one — we work on a fork.
SOC 2 readiness
Controls are in place: access logging, secret rotation, principle of least privilege, encrypted backups. We are not SOC 2 certified — if you need the audit, you commission it on the deployed system.
GDPR posture
Data subject requests are wired into the admin (export, delete, opt-out). Cookie consent is configurable per region.
SLA & uptime
We deploy on Vercel + Neon, both 99.99% SLA. We tune your hosting plan for your traffic; we do not resell the underlying SLA.
Hosting model
You hold the cloud account. We deploy with your credentials. No "managed by SBFS" lock-in — handing over operations is a config change, not a migration.

Seven manufacturers. Seven products that ship configured.

Door Builder

Custom doors — residential & commercial

3w → 4m
Quote turnaround

Door Builder's sales team hand-built quotes for two and a half weeks. SBFS shipped the full stack — a configurator wired to shop-floor routing, commercial pricing tiers in checkout, and a B2B dealer-network portal — and collapsed that to four minutes.

Feltform

Acoustic panels & wall systems

Configurations priced & shipped

Feltform's product is infinitely variable — shape, colour, mounting, dimension — and the acoustics change with every choice. SBFS replaced a 14-step PDF form with a configurator that runs the acoustic math in the browser, per-SKU ship-date logic, and a multi-language storefront.

Customer-service tickets

Torga's modular systems are powerful and confusing — customers ordered parts that didn't fit. SBFS added visual compatibility rules in the configurator plus a B2B dealer portal with scoped manager impersonation, and customer-service tickets fell 72%.

Design → client-ready spec

AV Drop's clients design custom audio-visual backdrops and stages. SBFS built a parametric 3D configurator with a subscription portal — design in the browser, then export a client-ready PDF spec or an AI render of the design in a real room, no CAD required.

Pepart

Preview = the print

Pepart sells framed posters printed on demand. SBFS built a real-time 3D frame configurator where the customer's exact crop and frame choice are reproduced at print resolution — what they preview is what ships — with fulfilment automated end to end through Printful.

Configured furniture, exported as BIM

NOMI sells made-to-order furniture to interior designers and direct buyers. SBFS built a 3D configurator with a trade/designer portal — saved configurations, trade pricing, and Salesforce-synced quotes — plus a public API that exports any configured piece straight to Revit (.rfa) for architects.

Custom orthosis, configured in-browser

OrthoSolid lets clinicians and distributors design custom 3D-printed orthoses — wrist, hand, and finger braces — in the browser. SBFS built the parametric 3D configurator, patient records, and the full order-to-manufacture pipeline, in five languages.
