Custom manufacturing quoting is a bespoke build for your shop, not a rented configurator that owns your logic. Hexis creates quoting systems for powder coating, nesting, assembly, and similar production math.
Why custom manufacturing quoting
Off-the-shelf quoting tools force your shop into someone else’s assumptions. Custom manufacturing quoting encodes your real rates, constraints, and exceptions so estimates match how you produce.
Importantly, you own the result. That is the anti lock-in requirement.
- Powder coating, nesting, assembly, and related flows
- Logic that matches your process, not a generic template
- Client-owned code and data
- Can connect to process maps and ERP data when ready
How we build it
We start from process and historical quotes, not from a UI skin. Custom manufacturing quoting only works when the rules are explicit and testable.
Then we implement, validate with estimators, and leave you with something maintainable.
Fit with shop-floor AI
Quoting sits at the front of the money pipeline. When it is accurate and connected, downstream production planning and AI on the shop floor tools get cleaner inputs. Process clarity often comes first via Process Builder; controls modernization may involve hexis PLC.
Still, we will not bolt AI onto a quoting mess that needs basic rule clarity first.
