How many parts in there are standardized? It's always easier for a sheet metal shop to punch out and break more similar parts than differing ones.
I'll definitely check out PEM nuts.

There are only 3 different parts here. All sideplates at the same, all cross members are the same, and brackets in between plates are the same.
