Sales and Aftermarket for Manufacturers

Seamless Lifecycle Support for Manufactured Products from Sale to Service.

Overview

SolidCAD brings a transformative approach to manufacturing sales and aftermarket parts management through two innovative solutions: CPQ (Configure, Price, Quote) software for manufacturers, Variant and Aftermarket Parts Software implementation.

These solutions are designed to leverage your existing CAD designs, simplifying the aftermarket sale process, and enhancing customer service by enabling direct interaction and customization via your website.

This digital transformation not only makes it easier to meet customer needs but also accelerates sales and reduces miscommunication.

CPQ Solutions for Manufacturers: Streamlining Sales with SolidCAD

SolidCAD’s CPQ solution, Variant is a game-changer for manufacturers looking to transition from traditional sales processes to a more interactive and customer-centric approach.

What is CPQ Software?

Configure, price, quote (CPQ) software is a web-enabled business system that connects your design and marketing to let you (or your customer) configure product variables, apply pricing changes automatically and generate quotes.

By utilizing our CPQ tool, companies can offer a configurable model of their products online. This enables customers to select options such as colour, sizing, materials, and accessories to generate an accurate quote and even a detailed engineering model in real-time, leveraging existing CAD models for streamlined sales.

Benefits of Using CPQ Tools Through SolidCAD

Our CPQ tool is built on the Autodesk Forge Platform and designed for ease of use by enabling sales teams and customers to leverage existing CAD models for a more dynamic sales experience. Leveraging existing iLogic rules from the 3D Cad Model and creating your own rules in our CPQ Tool minimizes errors and streamlines the quotation process, allowing your team to close deals faster.

Our CPQ solution also includes data management services, data cleanup, and implementation, ensuring that your iLogic Inventor models are optimized and seamlessly integrated into Variant. This capability allows for an intuitive configuration process on your website, facilitating direct sales and production orders.

Aftermarket Parts Software and Implementation

SolidCAD’s Aftermarket Parts Software, powered by CADShare, is a valuable tool for Sales and Aftermarket teams and revolutionizes how manufacturers manage and distribute aftermarket parts.

Gain access to a sophisticated yet easy-to-use aftermarket part software that greatly improves dealer interactions with your brand.

3D Viewer for Aftermarket Parts

CADShare makes it easy to take existing CAD models and upload them for aftermarket parts.

The detailed exploded assembly views, clearly highlight the bill of materials and organize the parts assembly, making it easier for users to identify and order the correct parts.

Using a 3D configurator not only simplifies the ordering process but also ensures that customers get the right replacement parts, reducing errors and improving satisfaction.

CPQ Solutions Through SolidCAD

SolidCAD’s 3D Configurator services also include cleaning up and optimizing your CAD models to ensure they are correctly designed for resale.

These services help streamline the integration of your CAD models and parts into CADShare, enabling sales and dealers and potential or existing customers to order new equipment parts directly from an interactive 3D model, improving aftermarket sales.

Software Technology

The Variant Product Configurator, powered by SolidCAD, transforms the traditional product specification and sales process. It leverages Autodesk Inventor to offer a streamlined, cloud-based CPQ (Configure, Price, Quote) solution, specifically tailored for manufacturers. By integrating directly with Autodesk Inventor models, it ensures product rules are centralized, cutting down on redundancy and errors. This not only speeds up the quotation process but also dramatically improves accuracy, leading to faster sales cycles and better operational efficiency.
