Over 1,200 OEMs and Suppliers have implemented Costimator since 1982.
 
Costimator OEM Many of the world’s largest and most successful manufacturing organisations utilise Costimator OEM to identify part cost reduction opportunities throughout the product development lifecycle, leading to millions of pounds in cost savings. Costimator OEM allows companies to quickly and easily identify the cost drivers in the products they design, manufacture and procure. This valuable information is then used to explore design alternatives and methods of manufacture that lead to lower cost products with higher profit margins.

Costimator JS Since 1982 over 1,200 job shops and contract manufacturers worldwide have been utilising Costimator JS for the speed, accuracy and consistency it brings to their quoting process. Costimator JS calculates the cycle time and cost of manufacturing a part or assembly in your shop, based on the capabilities of your equipment and your shop rates.

Cost Estimating Survey

In October of 2006, MTI Systems surveyed over 10,000 make to order businesses in the USA to determine the effect that cost estimating had on their business. Of those people that responded...
  • 64%  believed their company has lost jobs because of overestimating what their costs  would be to make a part during the quoting process.
  • 93% believed their company has lost money because the actual cost of manufacturing the part was more than it had been estimated to be.
  • 93% added a "Fudge Factor" to their quotes because they were unsure of its accuracy.
