Streamline the sales quoting cycle for
build-to-spec products.
The ability to provide timely and accurate quotes for customized products is a definite competitive
advantage. The time between a potential customer making contact and accepting the sales order is
not only a window of opportunity for your organization – but also for your competitors. Many
organizations struggle with putting the engineering know-how on paper to enable a deal to be
closed and production to proceed smoothly. iBuilder answers this challenge with an
easy-to-deploy, web-based enterprise product configurator that integrates with your front- and
back-office applications through an open Service- Oriented Architecture (SOA).
You can easily establish and update an unlimited number of product assembly rules (linkages and
constraints) with intuitive drag-n-drop tools. The web-based architecture allows instant access to
any assembly rule additions or changes, along with the most up-to-date price points.
Expedite the quoting process and eliminate the expensive and time-consuming errors produced
from inaccurate orders. Arm your sales personnel with the tools to create quick and true quotes
and orders the first time, every time.

iBuilder Features
Complex, build-to-spec configuration logic
iBuilder enforces unlimited critical product assembly/
manufacturing rules and constraints – providing the user
with explanations and options when a selection is invalid.
iBuilder manages multiple levels and types of option
compatibility rules, including constraints and linkages,
while capturing all the information needed to produce
accurate quotes and proposals.
User-friendly management and administration
Intuitive interface makes iBuilder management easy!
Simply drag & drop to establish product assembly rules
and constraints. Easily set roles-based security and
functionality filters and adjust price-point settings for
different users.
Advanced Document creation and automation
Streamline the quotation and sales process. iBuilder
automates the quote/orders 3rd party sellers present to
their customers with the most current pricing (including
preset seller mark-up, if desired). All documents are
instantly emailed as PDF to sales personnel for
distribution and may contain additional documents (e.g.
Terms & Conditions and/or warranty information).
Sales Option Menu
Simplified End-user functionality
iBuilder’s intuitive controls provide the user with easy and
quick operational capabilities. For instance, the seller
may choose to include upgrades within the quote price
or list them separately. To save time, customer data and
previous quotes and orders are available to “jump-start”
new quotes.
End-to-end functionality and performance
You choose the extent of iBuilder integration. Choose to
improve your quotation to sales process, or choose a
full- integration with sales, inventory, costing, and
quoting modules of your ERP and/or CRM system.
