Simplify complex product configuration
Do you sell and manufacture highly-configurable tangible goods? Our product configurator solution handles your complex engineering rules, can be implemented quickly, and is easily maintained.
We know…it’s complicated
A lot of manufacturers don’t think it’s possible to simplify complex product ordering and manufacturing
You have complex engineering rules with mathematical functions, backed by a disperate systems and databases scattered with product pricing and attributes. You don’t think the technology exists that can handle this complexity in product sales, engineering, and production; or if there is, you cannot easily afford or maintain it.
Gartner advises companies with highly configurable products to adopt a maintainable CPQ solution quickly to gain an edge on the competition:
“Early movers will take market share from their competitors by significantly changing the way in which products are sold. If one of your competitors is already using this technology, you are probably being outsold and need to react quickly with your own initiative.”
Easily configure and sell anything, despite complexity
Epicor CPQ provides the easiest CPQ solution for manufacturers to set-up and maintain product sales, CAD automation, integration, and manufacturing. Our robust platform is catered to solve complex selling challenges.
Master complex product rules and workflows
Handle mathematical functions, product variables, and manufacturing logic. Easily set up custom pricing approval loops, document routing, and API calls. Dynamically add/hide/limit options for users based on their previous selections.
Tap into limitless integrations and data sources
Connect all of your business systems including CAD, CRM, and ERP so data can be easily shared and maintained. Directly access your product data through a database or web services layer for a “single source of truth”. Your rules are based on product master metadata and attributes to provide resiliency over fragile SKU references.
Build reusable objects and nest your configurators
Reuse your component logic across product options, components, and entire product lines. Nested configurators dramatically simplify the creation and maintenance of your multilayered product rules. This makes omnichannel selling possible – providing safe re-use of components to different audiences across your configurators.
“Epicor CPQ gave our customers and engineers the ability to design a water quality unit to fit their needs without waiting for a response from our sales people or waiting on a design from our CAD department.”
Improve the customer experience to grow sales
With visual, guided selling, your sales reps can generate 99% more quotes and boost sales conversions by as much as 40%*.
Quicker customer service
Our complex visual configurator facilitates faster creation of proposals that include CAD drawings or 3D renderings of the ordered product. For example, a major medical device manufacturer reduced the time to generate a proposal from 10 days to 10 minutes.
Higher satisfaction rates
With our solution, consumers can customize and buy a product that is configured exactly how they want it, lowering rework costs and return rates while driving higher customer satisfaction.
“We evaluated many different solutions and Epicor CPQ was the only one that could handle our complex requirements.”
Reduce wait and touch time for engineering and sales
Quickly generate real CAD outputs for sales quotes, Customer Acceptance (CA), and manufacturing drawings that your teams can validate or further customize for the customer.
Let sales take control of their drawings
Don’t force sales to wait on engineering for multiple design cycles in order to get to work generating revenue. Epicor CPQ’s 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.
Dynamic CAD inputs and outputs
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.
“Our sales team previously submitted quotes to our engineering team multiple times for rework until they were correct. With Epicor CPQ, they now create quotes that reflect our engineering rules for our customers immediately.”
Solve for end-to-end orchestration with back-office and manufacturing integration
Accelerate production schedules and on-time product deliveries while reducing job costs and improving profitability.
Connect people, processes, and systems
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.
Auto-generate manufacturing outputs
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 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.
“Epicor CPQ provides a toolset that allows us to easily program configurators for any of our products and create documentation in any format for all departments within our company.”
