Tacton CPQ Minimizes the Workload for FLSmidth

The Challenge

FLSmidth offers everything from single machines to complete cement plants and mineral processing facilities. As with all industrial equipment, customization is a necessity. To optimize workflow, FLSmidth used legacy product configuration to optimize proposals, orders, and design for many years.

When their current configurator solution no longer supported their needs, they chose to replace it with Tacton CPQ. It was also important to FLSmidth that Tacton utilize product structure from PLM in their configuration models

The solution

During the evaluation, FLSmidth was impressed by Tacton CPQ’s ease of use and maintenance, and interactivity as a product configurator and sales configurator. Together with Tacton CAD Automation, it strengthened the automated output of 2D/3D and ERP documentation, working, consistently across all products.

“At the end of the day, we’re delivering faster and then freeing up time for engineer to refine the product or improve the product.”
