Over 70 percent of industrial customers find it more convenient to meet their needs online via supplier websites than in person. According to surveys, suppliers achieve up to 30 percent more sales through their online offering. Combined with the ability to customize products and systems, manufacturers can expect higher customer satisfaction, more sales and internal cost savings. This is why the P'X Industry Solution has been supplemented with a web configurator.

Comprehensive CPQ solution for complex product systems

The P'X Industry Solution from Perspectix integrates with existing systems such as 3D CAD, PLM, ERP and CRM. Lightweight 3D models with technical and commercial information are prepared in product catalogs. On this basis, sophisticated product configurations are created for systems as well as complex machines and plants. The P'X Industry Solution combines interactive technical 3D configuration, installation planning and visualization with calculation, parts list and quotation creation to meet individual customer requirements. Global sales organizations also benefit from this when they want to address new customer groups.

Simplified offer on the same database

The P'X web configurator enables manufacturers to create an easy-to-explain online portfolio for customer self-service from existing catalogs. Depending on the complexity, this is possible for complete products or the range of spare parts and accessories. The web configurator guides users quickly and reliably to their desired result in user-friendly dialogues with 3D visualization of modules and components in the installation space. The product logic is supplemented by the necessary technical calculations.

Growth through the World Wide Web

Now the products can be found on the Internet using conventional search engines. New customer groups are addressed worldwide and interested parties are acquired who configure their individual product online. After completion, they send the project file to the manufacturer. There, the technical sales department opens this file seamlessly in the P'X Industry Solution. After a technical check, the sales organization sends the offer with 3D views, installation or set-up planning and parts lists, supplemented by the offer of individual consulting services. This provides manufacturers of technical product systems with a tool for effective market development, generates growth and creates a competitive advantage.
