About Lupton Associates

Serving the working world since 1969

The key to our success is our people.

Founded in 1969, Lupton Associates helps OEMs, engineers, sourcing teams, and program leaders move custom components from requirement to practical manufacturing and quotation paths.

Our team brings decades of territory knowledge, manufacturing-process experience, and customer relationships to every project. We start with what is known—the drawing, material, volume, timing, documentation, or supply problem—and help determine the information and manufacturing review needed next.

For build-to-print components, that review may address lead time, material specifications, dimensional accuracy, unit cost, or the choice between domestic and offshore manufacturing paths.
