“Most of the world will make decisions by either guessing or using their gut. They will be either lucky or wrong.” - Suhail Doshi, CEO, Mixpanel.
Many job shops focus on driving efficiency in the production of parts, not on quoting. Shops often rely on one person's expertise for the function that drives new business. Having a quoting process that is driven by data allows shops to quote strategically and achieve greater ROI. For strategic quoting to be possible, shops need greater visibility of their data and a way to correlate data to drive more opportunities into their business.
Primary Topics:
- How to use data to quote strategically and win more business
- What data points you should analyze
- The impact of not quoting strategically
- How technology can help drive better quoting decisions for your business
