From points list to priced panel
Some enquiries arrive as drawings. Most arrive as a description of operations and a points list, with a day of interpretation in between.
Where time is lost
Four problems that slow every quote.
Two enquiry types, one process.
Drawings can be read. Specifications need judgement before a BOM exists.
I/O counting drives everything.
Analogue and digital totals decide controller sizing, and sizing decides price.
Labour lives in a spreadsheet.
Assembly, wiring and test hours in a file inherited years ago.
The wrong person is quoting.
The people who should be engineering are checking quotes.
What Customiser reads
Five capabilities, one pass.
Drawing to BOM first.
The fastest proof of value on your own documents.
Points list extraction.
Universal, analogue and digital I/O counted and totalled.
Components mapped to your standards.
Resolved against your parts list.
Labour from your own table.
Assembly, wiring and test hours with working shown.
Revision changes.
A re-quote shows what moved and what it did to the price.
