Quotes are a crucial step in the sales process, and quote turnaround times are often a decisive factor in winning business. Slow quote cycles lead to missed sales opportunities, bottlenecks, and lower customer satisfaction. For manufacturers of complex products, quote cycle times can be a significant challenge. Learn more about quote cycle times and how to deliver custom quotes faster.

By automating time-sensitive and repetitive upfront activities, manufacturers produce more designs in less time, and design engineers have more time to focus on higher-value work, such as new product development. Design automation tools capture and reuse design engineering knowledge, minimize errors and rework, and remove bottlenecks. Speeding up design cycles is key to business success, and design automation enables manufacturers to produce accurate designs faster.

Industrial components manufacturers use DriveWorks design automation, 3D product configurator, and CPQ for manufacturing solutions to meet the demand for custom products without sacrificing efficiency or profitability. Bondura Technology AS is a global manufacturing leader in smart pivot pin technology. They use DriveWorks Solo to streamline their design process and produce custom designs faster and with greater accuracy.

Custom products can be difficult for sales teams and customers to configure. Multiple feature variations and interdependencies across extensive product lines require sales teams to have detailed knowledge, and customers to have clear product requirements. A product configurator solution streamlines the process by making configuration interactive and visual. The customer journey is faster, errors are reduced, and sales increase.

Traditional manufacturing processes for custom products can be complex, labor-intensive, and inefficient. Lengthy design and sales cycles can impact sales, and it may be difficult to scale up production. Successful manufacturers use CPQ as an effective tool to improve their business, delivering positive outcomes for sales teams, customers, and operations. Using CPQ, manufacturers configure, price, and quote custom products faster and with greater accuracy.
