Convince yourself of the advantages of a comprehensive SAP® configuration solution

Within the sales pro­cess, the SAP® Vari­ant Con­fi­gu­ra­tor opti­mi­ses the customer’s requi­re­ments ana­ly­sis, the sel­ec­tion of the most sui­ta­ble pro­duct, the pre­pa­ra­ti­on of quo­ta­ti­ons and the opti­mal cal­cu­la­ti­on. Even wit­hout tech­ni­cal pro­duct know­ledge, it beco­mes pos­si­ble to con­fi­gu­re com­plex pro­ducts in a fea­si­ble way, to cal­cu­la­te pri­ces pre­cis­e­ly and to pre­sent a cor­rect offer.

The direct link to the SAP® ERP sys­tem and the use of SAP® vari­ant con­fi­gu­ra­ti­on in the sche­du­ling and pro­duc­tion pro­cess ensu­res that the quo­ta­ti­on data is trans­fer­red secu­re­ly to pro­duc­tion. This inte­gra­ti­on leads to a reduc­tion in through­put times and increased trans­pa­ren­cy of pro­duct know­ledge in all busi­ness units. Depen­ding on the imple­men­ta­ti­on, the ATO (assem­ble-to-order), CTO (con­fi­gu­re-to-order) and also ETO (engi­neer-to-order) pro­duc­tion types are being sup­port­ed.
