North American Technical & Commercial Representation for Casting Programs
In global casting programs, distance creates risk. Time zones, language barriers, and lack of on-site technical presence slow decisions, weaken accountability, and allow small issues to escalate into major problems.
Metal Casting Development LLC provides local North American representation for casting buyers and casting manufacturers, acting as a trusted technical and commercial interface throughout sourcing, launch, and production.
We represent our clients on the ground, with the engineering knowledge and manufacturing experience required to make informed decisions, resolve issues quickly, and maintain alignment between customer expectations and foundry capabilities.
For Casting Buyers
We support OEMs and Tier-1 customers sourcing cast components by providing:
- Local technical representation with foundries
- On-site engineering support during tooling, trials, and production
- Clear communication of specifications, expectations, and change requirements
- Rapid issue containment, escalation, and resolution
- Independent technical feedback on process capability and risk
Our role is to ensure that casting suppliers clearly understand program requirements — and that buyers receive accurate, timely information based on first-hand technical evaluation.
For Casting Manufacturers
We support foundries supplying into the North American market by providing:
- A local technical and commercial presence for customers
- Representation during engineering reviews, audits, and problem-solving activities
- Support during launches, production ramp-up, and ongoing programs
- Clear, technically grounded communication with OEM and Tier-1 customers
- Faster issue resolution through direct, on-site engagement
This allows casting manufacturers to serve North American customers effectively without the cost and complexity of a permanent local office.

A Technical Interface — Not a Sales Proxy
Local representation through MCD is not sales brokerage or marketing support.
It is a technical interface built on real manufacturing and casting experience.
Our involvement reduces misalignment, improves response time, and creates confidence on both sides of the supply chain — particularly for complex or high-risk cast components.
When Local Representation Adds the Most Value
- Global sourcing programs supplying North American customers
- New supplier introductions and program launches
- Complex structural or safety-critical castings
- Programs requiring frequent technical interaction or on-site support
- Situations where rapid issue resolution is critical to maintaining production
