The Challenge
The opportunity is to eliminate lead times promised without checking plant load, days of manual quote preparation, and orders lost to whoever answered first. The proposed workflow is source-linked, but the current operating baseline and financial value remain illustrative until validated with the client.
How It Works
- Reads the enquiry and matches it to past jobs, current material cost and routing.
- Checks plant and machine load to set a lead time the business can meet.
- Returns a priced quote with a margin floor and a win probability from quote history.
What It Removes
