ETO companies think that it is impossible to automate the entire end-to-end process surrounding product configuration, design, engineering, and production. However, KBMax can act as your “Virtual Engineer” to reduce errors and speed up the sales and manufacturing process.
Quickly and accurately configure your products based on pre-built components and rules. Minimize the back-and-forth between the buyer, the sales team, and engineering.
Gain better control over any repeatable engineering processes with rules that enforce proper configuration and design. Epicor CPQ allows you to build complex product logic, workflows, and integrations that allow you to establish a “single source of truth” for your product design, configuration, sales, and manufacturing.
No matter the level of customization in your products, there is likely repeatability somewhere in your ETO process; in product components or sub-components. Your engineering rules drive nested configurators that allow salespeople to easily assemble complex ETO product estimates without the aid of the engineering team.
Reach customers like you never could before, with visual, dynamic selling that you can cater to each of your distinct buying audiences.
Don’t force sales to wait on engineering for multiple design cycles in order to get to work generating revenue. Epicor CPQ CAD design automation accurately generates CAD drawings for sales team quotes from the product configuration, with confidence that the rules of downstream manufacturing processes are followed on the order.
Ingest CAD files from popular platforms to drive Epicor CPQ configuration rules and interactive display.
We integrate with the most popular CAD platforms like Solidworks, Autodesk, and PTC to auto-generate engineering drawings and file outputs ready for customization by engineering.
Accelerate production schedules and on-time product deliveries while reducing job costs and improving profitability.
Epicor CPQ Connector seamlessly integrates with your existing architecture to read/write from databases, make web service calls, send emails, and has a full REST API to integrate with virtually any business system.
Full order records with parts lists and line-item details can be passed into ERP, CRM, and CPQ systems like Salesforce, Oracle, SAP, NetSuite, and Infor – aiding customer, inventory, and invoicing processes.
Provide detailed and dynamic sales drawings, cut sheets, parts lists, and assembly instructions so your manufacturing team knows exactly how to deal with final assembly.
Epicor CPQ can generate a highly detailed Manufacturing Bill of Materials (BOMs) for your manufacturing team to ensure a seamless transition from ordering to parts picking and the build and assembly phase.
