The
FlexGen 4 Estimated and Quoting processes
are powerful and time saving applications
of particular value in the "Build
to Order", "Highly Engineered"

process integrates seamlessly with Bills
of Material, Routings and Product Data

critical data required to develop an accurate
and timely quote. You can copy one quote
to another, with the ability to modify
each one unique to the prospect or customer
requirements. Each Quote considers Labor,
Material, Overhead, Output Services and
Machine cost as its Factors of Production.
Quotes can be derived directly from the
detail and cost analytics developed in
the FlexGen 4 Estimating module. A formal
Quote can then be forwarded to the customer
in digital or web based format saving
time and adding convenience the recipient.
Self Service facilities for Quotes and

tools in the effort to provide superior
customer service.
