Where do we get the data?

ModelBot has been designed to seamlessly tap into a multitude of systems, ensuring a comprehensive and accurate modeling process.

  1. Product Information Management (PIM) Systems: PIM systems are goldmines of product-related information. ModelBot can extract detailed specifications, descriptions, media files, and more from these systems, ensuring that the most up-to-date product data is always at hand.

  2. Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Systems: ERP systems offer a holistic view of business operations, from inventory and procurement to sales and finance. ModelBot can fetch data such as pricing, availability, and lead times from ERP systems, ensuring that the models are not only accurate but also aligned with real-time business realities.

  3. Direct CPQ Tickets: Sometimes, the most valuable insights come directly from the field. ModelBot can directly pull data from CPQ tickets, capturing nuances and specificities that might not be reflected in centralized systems. This ensures that models are always in sync with on-ground sales activities and customer requirements.

  4. Customer Relationship Management (CRM) Systems: Understanding customer preferences and sales histories can provide valuable context. ModelBot can integrate with CRM systems to incorporate this customer-centric data, leading to models that are more in line with market demands.

  5. Supply Chain Management (SCM) Systems: Timelines, vendor details, and supply chain bottlenecks can significantly influence product configurations. By integrating with SCM systems, ModelBot ensures that models reflect the broader supply chain context, from raw material availability to delivery timelines.

  6. Custom Databases: Every business has its unique data repositories. ModelBot is versatile enough to connect with custom databases, whether they're based on SQL, NoSQL, or other architectures. This ensures that no critical data point is ever overlooked.

In essence, ModelBot's strength lies not just in its modeling prowess but in its ability to harmoniously integrate data from diverse systems. This ensures that every model is a true reflection of both the product and the ecosystem it operates in, leading to more accurate, efficient, and relevant CPQ outcomes.
