Quoting and production handoff software for window and door manufacturers
A vertical manufacturing SaaS that turns a window or door design into a priced quote, bill of materials, cut sheet, and production work order. It would include preconfigured catalogs for profile systems, hardware, and glass, while supporting company-specific pricing, inventory, and production rules.
The problem
Small window and door factories often rely on hand sketches, spreadsheets, and WhatsApp. Design, pricing, bills of materials, cutting lists, and work orders are recreated manually across handoffs, causing hours of quoting work, inconsistent numbers, material waste, and incorrect cuts. Existing generic software may also leave manufacturers with empty catalogs they must configure themselves.
