In a rapidly changing industrial world, where customization, responsiveness and sales efficiency have become the keys to success, companies need to adapt.
The industrial and commercial configurator, also known as the CPQ (Configure Price Quote) solutionis a strategic tool for optimizing complex sales, improving productivity and strengthening collaboration between sales, technical and industrial teams.
What is an industrial and commercial configurator?
A CPQ configurator is a software solution that combines two traditionally separate worlds:
- The industrial configurator enables you to design customized products in compliance with technical, normative and manufacturing constraints.
- The Sales Configurator (CPQ) generates precise, real-time quotations and customized sales proposals in line with your pricing policy.
Integrating these two aspects into a single solution (like those offered byITCelerator) eliminates silos, makes information transmitted to production more reliable, and considerably accelerates customer response times.
6 key benefits of an industrial CPQ configurator
1. Offer reliability
Avoid configuration errors thanks to integrated business rules and upstream technical control.
2. Sales cycle acceleration
Quotes generated in minutes instead of days.
3. Cost reduction
Fewer re-entries, fewer human errors, greater productivity.
4. Improving the customer experience
Interactive quotes, 2D/3D visualization, immersive experience on your site or at the point of sale.
5. Production optimization
Validated configurations can be used directly in ERP, PLM or MES tools.
6. Marketing – sales – production alignment
A single product repository for the entire company.
