Technically Feasible Products
Already when entering orders, sales employees can effortlessly configure individual products. Plausibility checks prevent them from designing incomplete or inaccurate product variants. This avoids inquiries or errors due to configurations which are technically not feasible.
Customized Products
Color, form, size, features: every customer has different demands of a product. The configurator features part drawings and sketches which enable customers to check how their product will look like. They feel confident about their design right from the beginning.
Quotes at the Push of a Button
All technical and commercial data are stored at a central location in proALPHA. The product configurator draws on these data to determine the final price and possible delivery date of a product variant. Once the configuration has been finished, all pieces of information are compiled to generate a quote, complete with cover letter, costing, and drawing.
Automatic Determination of BOMs and Routings
The proALPHA Product Configurator automatically generates data relevant to production using existing information. This saves both time and costs. These data include bills of materials, routings and drawings, for example, which are ready to be used in production processes. The product configurator is the perfect basis for production planning.
