JobOps — Product Configurator



Streamlines Configuration of Custom Products and Services

You give your customers options. They can choose the size, color, optional components, quantities, materials, style of the products or services that they wish to buy from you.

The flexibility you offer in providing exactly what your customers want has given you a reputation that has helped grow your business. However, there has also been a price to pay in offering configurable products because of the inherent complexities in production and order fulfillment. The flexibility that has been the key to your success could be placing your future growth and profitability at risk.

 
JobOps, Product Configurator, MAS 90
The JobOps Product Configurator allows you to continue and improve upon
the flexibility to your customers while streamlining your operations in creation of work orders to deal with fulfillment.

In fact, with the Product Configurator, you may even speed up your quoting, sales order entry, and creation of production orders, resulting in even faster delivery to your customers.
  Here is how it works:
Through a graphical selection wizard, the Product Configurator asks simple questions needed to configure your customer’s product. The Configurator is rules-based, meaning that the questions asked and the available responses are only offered if they are compatible with. the options already selected.

For example, if you build custom doors, the Configurator might ask for the dimensions, type of material, and paint or stain. For the dimensions, the Configurator has rules that only allow responses between the minimum and maximum dimensions that you offer. For the type of material, the
Configurator provides a list of materials to choose from and pictures to verify your selection. Finally, if you selected steel as the material, the Configurator asks what color paint to use. If you selected wood, the Configurator offers the choices of available stain.

The possibility of ordering a door that is too narrow, or choose steel materials but use wood stain has been eliminated. Not only are you providing better service to your customers by preventing mistakes in their order, you also avoid asking your production group to create something that may need to be scrapped.

In fact, through the simple responses you provided when creating the order, the Configurator has also calculated the price to your customer, the bill of material necessary to fulfill the order, and the router necessary to instruct your shop floor about how to build the door. It has also calculated the estimated cost of the bill of material and the time and cost of the labor to complete the job.

Whether you make cabinets, custom machines, computers, install network systems for office buildings, or offer repair services that can be configured to order, with the JobOps Product Configurator software, you can quickly enter the options your customers need, deliver on-time and continue to grow your business while avoiding potential costly mistakes!
