Below is a recommendation
to purchase DieMatrix die estimating
software. I sat through an online
demonstration. In a separate
session, we used an actual
quotation requested by our customer and
had dieplanners.com prepare the quote at the
same time we prepared it. The times were
fairly comparable and the result was that the software was far
more accurate because it looked at more
specific lower level details. The payback
on this project is just under one year (.89
year) which alone is not bad but, there are several other advantages to be reaped as
well. One major item will be the
clerical accuracy since the computer does not
make calculation errors. Another is the
closer accuracy of the quote itself because of
using specific details rather than
approximations. Plus we believe that our
win rate will improve slightly as a result of
greater accuracy of our die quotes. In our judgment, this is the solution
that we have spent the last six plus months
looking for. I am also
recommending that we procure it and we would
like your approval to proceed in acquiring this
software as soon as possible in order to begin
reaping the benefits that it
offers.
