F61: Estimating and Job Costing for Industry 4.0 - The Science of Costing and the Art of Pricing (Room S401D)

12 Nov 19
10:00 AM - 11:30 AM

Tracks: Automation, Automation/Robotics

The business strategy around estimating, costing, and pricing hasn't changed much in the last 20 years. Having spoken with over 1,000 shop owners and working with over 1,500 job shops, our presenters are helping shops turn the data generated in the quoting and job costing process into information to help shops not spend too much time over engineering quotes. Leveraging this data and automation of the administrative tasks in the quoting and costing process, experienced fabricators can spend less time engineering quotes and more time on the shop floor training the next generation of fabricators. Most shops have a win rate of 20-30%. This means most of the quotes sent resulted in no revenue. Attend this session to understand how better utilize the engine of ERP and supercharge it with a digital estimating platform.
