The challenge

Where they started.

Each boat is a combination of a base model, packages, options and upgrades, and pricing them by hand produced inconsistent results.

Parts lists for ordering had to be rebuilt from the specification after the sale.

What we built

The system.

  • Model and package specification builder with rules for compatible options
  • Parts and BOM generation from the confirmed specification
  • Labour hours by build stage
  • Central web database for models, options and pricing, with an Excel front end
