Streamlining Quotation Generation and Reducing Errors: 

A Digital Revolution at Lenmak Exterior Innovations Inc.

Success Snapshot

Customer Profile

Lenmak Exterior Innovations Inc., established in 1996, is a global leader in manufacturing state-of-the-art light gauge metals for residential, commercial, and agricultural applications. With a steadfast commitment to innovation and operational efficiency, Lenmak specializes in cutting-edge manufacturing processes.

Challenge

Lenmak's process for handling orders and generating quotations for their Trim and Flashing products was intricate and required careful attention to detail. The existing procedures, while comprehensive, were time-intensive and depended on multiple steps of manual data entry. They also sought to reduce reliance on senior-level review for validation, and were keen to streamline their order handling and quote generation process to increase overall efficiency.

Solution

Negmax proposed a custom-built Configure-Price-Quote (CPQ) system, designed to seamlessly align with Lenmak's complex workflows. This solution aimed to consolidate the order taking and quote generation processes, integrate seamlessly with their existing ERP system, and minimize the need for higher-level revisions.

Implementation Process

Negmax developed a user-friendly CPQ system that provided a visual guide and intuitive, wizard-like flow, drastically simplifying the order handling and quote generation process. The new system eliminated redundant data entries by communicating directly with Lenmak's ERP system and automatically generated work orders and cut lists for manufacturing.

Results

With the new system, the time required to prepare a quotation was significantly reduced, from an average of 55 minutes to just 10 minutes. The tool also assured 100% accuracy, eliminating the need for senior-level revisions. The system brought further benefits, including reduced overtime, timely deliveries, and lower material waste. Furthermore, a less stressful work environment led to improved employee satisfaction.

Testimonial

"The innovative solution that Negmax developed for us is both simple and accurate. To put it into perspective, a team member from a non-technical background was able to complete five quotations flawlessly with zero training. This speaks volumes to the system's user-friendly design and efficiency."

Our custom-built CPQ solution revolutionized Lenmak's order handling and quote generation process, saving time and ensuring accuracy.
