 There’s freecad but it takes a lot to learn a whole new system.

 I'm very aware but no one can build a business with FreeCAD.

 Why is that? Because no employees will know how to use it? Just curious. I haven’t even spent the time myself learning it.

 Several reasons:

It's not fully developed. 
It is very hard to learn. 
It does not interface well with modern manufacturing systems/software. (This is the biggest issue.) 
It has issues with real dimensionality (though this is getting better).

 Just provide them the list of features you need and offer to sponsor their development. Run a crowdfunding if you wish so other people can pitch in with funding.
