Pre-RFQ Simulation – Ensuring Feasibility Before Procurement

Aerospace , Automotive , Manufacturing

Before sending RFQs, companies need to validate production feasibility, assess process constraints, and compare supplier solutions. Ensuring realistic specifications can optimize procurement decisions and minimize investment risks.

Challenges

  • Cost estimation uncertainty: How can production feasibility be verified before sending Request For Quotations (RFQs)?
  • Process validation: Will the proposed manufacturing process meet production targets?
  • Supplier comparison: How do different equipment or process choices impact performance and cost?
  • Investment risk: How to ensure RFQs reflect realistic production constraints and opportunities?

How Simulation Helps

inFACTS Studio enables companies to:

  • Run production scenarios to validate cost estimates and feasibility before RFQ submission.
  • Analyze process constraints to refine specifications and avoid incorrect assumptions.
  • Compare potential suppliers by testing different equipment and process setups.
  • Optimize procurement decisions with simulation-backed insights on cost-performance trade-offs.

Expected Results

  • Stronger supplier negotiations with fact-based RFQ insights.
  • Minimized procurement risks by ensuring production feasibility upfront.

With inFACTS Studio, businesses can ensure well-informed RFQs, improving supplier selection and overall cost efficiency.
