The manufacturing industry is the backbone of the modern world, driving our evolution and enabling countries around the world to achieve a better quality of life. However, the global supply chain that makes this possible is also a vulnerability, as demonstrated by recent events like the COVID-19 pandemic.

It's important for companies in the manufacturing industry to find ways to build resilience and growth in the face of disruption. One tool that can help with this is Tacton CPQ, and cpq.se is a team of expert consultants in this area.

In this article, we'll explore the importance of resilience in the manufacturing industry and end up with the conclusion that it's a good idea to book a meeting with cpq.se to discuss how Tacton CPQ can help your organization.

Role of Purpose in Business Success

Companies that embrace change and have a strong sense of purpose tend to attract better employees and perform better in the market. It's important for organizations to have a clear link between their values and the success they achieve. Building resilience requires a focus on purpose and the ability to adapt to change.

We're not saying that a CPQ system provides a purpose for your business, but it will help you align on a single truth when it comes to your product. To get everyone working towards the same goal - that will bring a sense of purpose for everyone involved. So let's agree that it's at least contributing.

The Importance of Clarity in Operations

When it comes to selling large, configurable solutions and services to customers, it's important for companies to have clarity in their operations. This includes being able to configure the right solution for the customer and optimizing that solution for the good of the organization, while also ensuring that they win the deal at a price with a good margin and low risk of fulfillment.

Building resilience in operations requires a clear understanding of the customer's needs and the ability to manage risk effectively.

The Challenges of Configuration

Traditionally, sales, engineering, and supply chain departments have worked with separate tools and have been siloed from each other. This can make it difficult to align on the right solution for the customer, ensure that it is technically viable, and manage the availability of parts and the risk of fulfillment.

Building resilience requires the ability to break down silos and work together effectively.
