The energy sector is evolving fast — but not all types of companies are keeping pace. While alternative energy manufacturers, project developers, and service providers increasingly adopt quoting tools, others are still trying to manage quotes with outdated spreadsheets, legacy ERP systems, and lengthy email-based approvals.
The CPQ Advantage for Energy Manufacturers, Developers, and Service Providers
When your revenue depends on securing complex, high-value contracts, falling behind in quoting is more than a bottleneck — it's a business risk. That's why adopting an alternative energy manufacturing CPQ solution can be a game-changer.
The truth is, quoting today isn't about just sending a price. It's about flawless and rapidly integrating thousands of parts, services, pricing tiers, regions, and contract rules into one accurate, timely proposal.
Complex Energy Projects Demand More Than Spreadsheets
Imagine you're quoting a renewable energy project that spans multiple regions and involves dozens of SKUs, complex service bundles, and multi-phase contracts.
Here's the painful truth:
- Sales teams spend up to weeks juggling specs, spreadsheets, and pricing logic for both products and services.
- Finance delays approvals due to margin shifts across configurations and contract terms.
- Legal rewrites terms due to version chaos and changing compliance requirements.
By the time the quote’s ready, the client’s moved on — or signed with someone faster.
