Description
A significant number of manufacturers are increasingly utilizing configuration, pricing, and quotation (CPQ) systems, like the P'X Industry Solution from Perspectix, which seamlessly integrates interactive 3D technical configuration, layout planning, and visualization with cost analysis, bill of materials, and quotation generation to effectively address customer needs. This integration significantly lightens the burden on sales teams, allowing trading partners and international entities to more easily access essential product information. Additionally, design and product development teams can shift their focus toward innovation and creativity, rather than spending time on the review or design of various product options. Meanwhile, there is a rising demand for self-service options among industrial clients; approximately 70 percent prefer the convenience of resolving their needs through online platforms instead of through direct interaction. Research indicates that manufacturers and suppliers can experience sales growth of up to 30 percent when they provide these self-service capabilities, highlighting the importance of adapting to customer preferences in the digital age. This trend underscores the necessity for businesses to evolve their strategies in order to stay competitive and responsive to changing market dynamics.
Description
Variant is an online configurator developed on the Autodesk Forge platform, specifically designed for manufacturing clients aiming to enhance their quotation and design-to-manufacturing workflows. It transcends traditional Configure, Price, Quote (CPQ) systems, enabling users—including internal sales teams, potential customers, and dealers—to effortlessly make product selections via an easy-to-use web interface from virtually any location. The outcome is a 3D model that can be viewed interactively, along with a corresponding bill of materials and a polished quotation. Being web-based means that Variant requires no installation, providing convenient access for all team members and customers at any time and from anywhere. By optimizing the quotation and design-to-manufacturing processes, Variant not only boosts sales but also minimizes engineering cycle times. Additionally, it generates detailed professional quotations and other customizable outputs, such as a precisely configured model, in a timely manner, enhancing overall efficiency. This capability allows manufacturers to respond to customer needs more swiftly and effectively.
