Every time you rebuild a quote in a spreadsheet, you’re paying a hidden tax: rework, errors, approvals, and handover chaos. One change cascades into five more. The engineer becomes the bottleneck. The quote goes out late. And the margin gets “close enough” instead of controlled.
Pain points
- Quotes take too long, and accuracy depends on one or two people
- Rules live in heads, not systems—so mistakes slip through under pressure
- Re-keying between sales, production, and finance creates preventable rework
- BoMs, cut lists, and job instructions get built manually (again) after acceptance
- Discounts and edge cases erode margin because governance isn’t enforceable
Common Rules our System Automates
• Dimensional breakpoints
(if span/height/width > N → add reinforcement/extra post)
• Material swaps
(if outdoor/coastal → use stainless fasteners, powder coat grade X)
• Option dependencies
(if motorised → add remote + power kit, hide manual crank)
• Labour logic
(if install > 50km → add travel band C; if height > 3m → 2-person crew)
• Compliance steps
(if load class B → add cert pack, QA photos)
• Cut lists & kitting
(sub-assemblies expand to the right components and quantities)
