Describe the manual baseline
Record how the team currently chooses a product, writes dimensions, identifies accessories and calculates the price. A spreadsheet or drawing can perform useful work; identify where another person retypes its data and which checks stop incompatible products or incorrect commercial lines from progressing.
Define the connected alternative
Specify the product rules, quotation outputs and handoff needed in the proposed Configurix implementation. Elite Aluminum provides evidence of automatic item-SKU quoting, while Tenteks Italia demonstrates wider multi-product software and website delivery. Map your own responsibilities to that scope instead of assuming all existing tools must disappear.
Compare a changed project
Start with an open-sided configuration, then change its projection and add glass to one side. In both workflows, inspect the frame specification, enclosure components, quantities and customer proposal. Count how many fields are re-entered and which corrections are needed. Include the handoff to the next person so the comparison shows whether the revised product can be carried forward without reconstruction.
Implementation checklist
- Manual baseline recorded
- Same product in both tests
- Changed-project reconciliation
- Comparable process measurements
