Create products from requirements
Everything the design engine produces is marketplace-native: a manufacturable, analyzed design with its documentation attached from the moment it exists.
Marketplace
The future of manufacturing is on demand.
Physical goods become as addressable as software: generated when they are needed, produced where it makes sense, and drawn from a network of qualified designs and accredited capacity.

What the marketplace enables
A design is an asset. Capacity is a utility.
Once a part is qualified, it should never have to be engineered again — by anyone. The marketplace is where proven designs and accredited capacity meet under terms both sides can defend.
Acquire qualified designs
Take on a design that has already been proven and built, with its analysis, inspection history, and licensing terms included — instead of paying to solve a solved problem.
Release to accredited capacity
Send any design straight into production at a facility holding the accreditations your program requires, with routing constraints enforced by the platform.
Offer your own designs
Engineering organizations can publish qualified designs under controlled terms — scoped to approved buyers, with export and licensing conditions enforced on every release.
List accredited capacity
Manufacturers join the network by demonstrating capability and holding accreditation. Work is routed on qualification and performance, not on who bids lowest.
A global network, bounded on demand
Draw on worldwide capacity when that is right, and restrict a project to domestic or cleared facilities when it is not. The boundary is a setting, not a negotiation.
How trust works here
An exchange is only as good as what it refuses to list.
Open design repositories fail institutional buyers because nothing on them is accountable. The GovFab marketplace carries only designs that have been analyzed and built, and only facilities that have been assessed and audited.
Every listing carries its provenance: who authored it, what analysis it passed, where it has been produced, and how those parts inspected.
The network is being built now.
Whether you hold designs worth publishing or capacity worth listing, we want to talk before it opens.
