Successful digital transformation of enterprise offering using Century CPQ

Excelacom collaborated with a direct wholesaler of telecommunications devices and equipment that relied heavily on a manual process. Utilizing Microsoft Office and navigating scattered applications divided into department silos, their lack of communication made creating quote to orders time consuming.

Our client faced significant challenges as a result of the excessive amount of touchpoints and interactions throughout their systems. They used disjointed applications such as SugarCRM, SAP, and Microsoft Office and conducted their work manually by sending individual documents via mail for approval and communication with clients. To overcome these concerns we approached all interactions holistically from the beginning, working our way through the entire journey to introduce automation.

The final result reduced a seven-day process to a ten-minute quote-to-order by implementing Century CPQ and consolidated multiple applications and automated their processes. By integrating Century CPQ into their order and revenue management systems, the number of screens was reduced by 65% and number of touches were reduced from 22 to 16.
