  • Eliminates data entry and shifts focus on quote validation and proposal submission
  • Reduces the involvement of engineering & procurement department in the estimation process
  • Increases the accuracy of each estimate by eliminating individual estimator preferences
  • Offers OEMs and Tier 1 integrators the ability to verify pricing proposals from their supply chain
  • Offers smaller suppliers the opportunity to increase response rate to RFQ/RFPs
  • Identifies cost saving opportunities if software used during engineering design phase
  • Contract negotiations yield better results for both the supplier and customer
  • Strengthened cost negotiating position for suppliers and/or customer
  • Offers detailed component breakdown information on raw material, standard hardware, manufacturing, final processing and assembly
  • Actual industry/OEM specific data used for cost modeling
  • Software specifically tailored towards aerostructure detailed components and assemblies
  • Database driven estimating based on actual OEM and industry based specifications

Automatic Feature & Data Recognition

CPQ Aero feature & data recognition capability automatically analyzes raw material, standard hardware manufacturing, final processing and assembly requirements for various OEM platforms. The software is able to read, extract and import part data from Catia V4 & V5 3D models into the automated quoting software

Database Driven

CPQ Aero Software is database driven based on actual OEM based specifications. Software allows the user to access, update and store all related specifications or engineering data globally or quote specific. The estimation databases are also updated weekly by the RFQ2Go Team to ensure the estimator uses the most updated specifications during proposal submission

Manufacturing & Assembly Data Library

CPQ Aero comes loaded with aerospace validated Parametric Cost Models to support Airbus, Boeing & Bombardier platforms. The cost models are easily adjustable to support all company sizes and aircraft build rates to ensure the most accurate pricing. The Cost Models support all types of manufacturing processes such as CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, tube bending, welding and assembly

Engineering Design Costing

The engineering department can utilize the RFQ Aero software early in product development to ensure the most optimal design is selected. Design and Cost Engineers can run quick costing scenarios by varying the raw materials, manufacturing methodologies and final processes in early designs.

Purchase Price Analysis

As a strategic buyer you can use CPQ Aero software to estimate detail and assembly cost breakdowns for small or large RFX packages within minutes before pricing proposals are received from external vendors. The following information will ensure future price negotiations will meet internal targets

Company-wide Pricing Consistency
