You're a shipbuilding & marine manufacturing shop in Butte, MT — one of the strongest shipbuilding & marine manufacturing markets in the Mountain West.
You've got steel cut, hull sections welded, and a crew on the floor months before the next milestone payment hits your account.

For shipbuilding & marine manufacturing in Butte, the first look is usually invoice factoring against your commercial AR: that's what most directly closes the gap between net-45 to net-90 on the receivables side and wear plate, specialty feedstock, and energy load on the production side. From there, an equipment or working-capital line is a common second step as the shop scales. Compare the full stack on the Butte programs page.
Directional estimates, not quotes or guarantees: factoring typically takes 3 to 10 days to fund, and equipment financing takes 5 to 15 business days.

No. Manufactor Finance is an independent business financing referral service: there are no application, origination, or closing fees to you. In most states, funding partners pay us when an account funds or activates; in California and Missouri they instead pay a fixed fee per inquiry, whether or not you are funded. Either way, you pay us nothing.
