Manufacturers of textile and fabrication machinery handle intricate product configurations involving automation systems, fabric handling units, sensors, motors, and control modules. Each customer often requires machine layouts tailored to their production lines and material types. Managing these options manually through spreadsheets or email chains leads to quoting delays and costly misconfigurations. Mercura CPQ provides a streamlined, digital approach, enabling faster, more accurate configuration, pricing, and quoting across your sales channels.

Industry Challenges

• Machines often have multiple options for fabric types, automation levels, and cutting or stitching capabilities.

• Customization for production speed, size, and output requires engineering input on nearly every quote.

• Constant price changes due to varying component and motor costs.

• Manual quoting processes slow down response times and create errors in BOMs.

• Lack of integration between sales and engineering systems leads to communication breakdowns.

• Difficulty managing dealer and regional pricing across international markets.
