The Methodology
Every stage. Timed. Mapped. Scored.
Built from one real quote.
We take one live quote from your pipeline and walk it through all 7 stages of Q-FLOW. At each stage we time it, interview the people involved, and document what is actually happening versus what should be.
01
Quote Request Intake
How the request enters the system and who touches it first. Where delay starts.
02
Product Configuration
How the product or variant is selected and technically validated before pricing.
03
Pricing and Margin Calculation
How price is built, who controls margin, and where pricing inconsistency lives.
04
Engineering Review
Where and why engineering gets pulled in on every deal. The most expensive stage for most manufacturers.
05
Document Generation
How the quote document is created, formatted, and assembled before approval.
06
Internal Approval
Who signs off, how many rounds it takes, and how long approvals add to cycle time.
07
Quote Delivery and Follow-up
How the quote reaches the customer and what follow-up process exists to protect win rate.
