Industrial fasteners and hardware manufacturers face constant pressure to meet customer-specific requirements, from material type and coating to thread design, tolerance, and packaging. With thousands of SKUs and tight production margins, manual quoting and order handling often lead to inefficiencies and costly errors. Mercura CPQ simplifies how manufacturers manage configurations, pricing, and customer quotes, helping them respond faster and with greater accuracy.

Industry Challenges

• Massive product catalogs with complex combinations (threads, materials, finishes, grades).

• Price volatility for metals such as steel, titanium, and aluminum.

• High quoting volume requiring quick turnaround for both small and bulk orders.

• Manual processes that create errors and mismatches between order and production data.

• Difficulty managing configurations for OEM and distributor channels simultaneously.

• Limited visibility into margin impact during quote creation.

The Mercura CPQ Advantage

• Smart Configuration Management: Automate selection logic for threads, coatings, and material grades across large product catalogs.

• Dynamic Pricing Control: Adjust prices automatically based on real-time material costs or supplier changes.

• Instant, Error-Free Quoting: Generate precise quotes and BOMs directly from customer requirements, even for high-volume orders.
