CPQ Software for Medical Device Manufacturing

Medical device configuration is increasingly more complex as medical and scientific technology evolves, reducing product lifecycle and increasing risks. Compliance regulations impact manufacturing and purchasing processes, and are constantly in flux.

Your customer base is becoming more demanding and more diverse. How do you get new medical products to market quickly while preserving margin and revenue? When it comes to medical device manufacturing, these are just a few of the challenges you need to overcome. See how Cincom CPQ helps you do it…

How Does CPQ Benefit Medical Device Manufacturers?

Improve Time to Market, Minimize Impact of Regulatory Compliance Changes

Medical device technology is changing at a rapid rate, and so are the regulations in your industry. This means your products are either being updated or replaced with greater frequency. Cincom CPQ makes it easier to manage the challenges of a short product lifecycle. That means quickly updating configuration rules and pricing and ensuring your sales reps are armed with the knowledge they need to start selling new products right away.

Protect, Increase Sales Margins

You spend a lot in R&D on your new products, so once they’re on the market, you need to protect your margins and maximize the value of every deal you’re making. Cincom CPQ helps you protect, and even increase, sales margins with hard and fast pricing rules built into the configuration process. By giving you the ability to better manage specials and discounts–areas that can make or break the value of a sale for the organization–you’re setting standards across your entire sales organization that ensure positive results.

Ensure Quality, Precision in Spec and Build

Medical devices improve and save lives. When stakes are that high, you and your customer need to know they’re getting the product they need, configured correctly and delivered as-ordered. Cincom CPQ is a collaborative system that facilitates the go-to-market process across the organization, integrating your sales office, back office and engineers in one application. Everyone is operating from the same playbook, so you can give your customers the assurance they need to buy confidently from you every time.
