Challenge
With the need to optimise the product quotation and costing process, BLM was looking for a tool that would allow engineers to quickly obtain accurate estimates.
For this reason, they decided to introduce LeanCOST in the company, which allowed them to have full control over product and process costs.
Some of the results achieved
Reduction of time for cost estimation of components for in-house production and purchasing.
Savings in internal production costs due to better cost awareness during the design phase.
Increased accuracy in cost estimation.
Reduction of the average negotiation time with suppliers from 7 days to one day.
