We partner to deliver business transformation from order to cash in the furniture and cabinet-making industry through a methodical and continuous cycle of transformation, optimization, and expansion.
Using our team’s unparalleled combination of long-standing industry experience, cross-functional expertise, and pioneering spirit, we focus on business process and factory automation by leveraging and enriching existing systems and incorporating new technology to achieve operational excellence.
How we’ve evolved
For more than 30 years, ITE Partners founders and senior team members have been deeply involved in the advancement of the woodworking industry by applying manufacturing philosophies and concepts such as Toyota Production System, lean manufacturing, mass customization, and networked manufacturing.
Using this as the basis for innovation within the industry, our team members have developed software and integrated the state-of-the-art technology of the time, from departmental software solutions like CAD, CAM, and MES to building networked enterprise manufacturing solutions for the kitchen cabinet, office furniture, and institutional casework industry.
On our 5th anniversary, we celebrated our evolution from ITe Consulting to ITE Partners.
Our team members have addressed challenges unique to the furniture and cabinet-making industry for more than 30 years. In 2024, after 5 years of operating in North America as ITe Consulting, we announced our evolution to ITE Partners.

We offer a unique ability to provide both a big-picture view and the necessary on-the-ground experience to solve our clients’ broader problems. Together with all our partners, we move our clients’ digital, business, and operational processes through a continuous cycle of transformation, optimization, and expansion.
