To simplify configure, price, and quote (CPQ) processes and cut through all the complexity, innovative customer engagement and commerce technology can help quickly design multifaceted product and service bundles solutions from the bottom up by analyzing functional specifications, defining components that address requirements, resolving interdependencies, and combining everything in one tailor-made package.
