Agentic CPQ | Slice O Tech — GTA AI & IT Consulting
Flagship solution - Agentic CPQ

Every quote priced, producible, and profitable - drafted by an agent.

The use case

An embedded AI agent reads the customer’s RFQ, prices it against live input costs, checks it against real production capacity, validates every compliance requirement - and hands your team a finished draft to approve. Minutes, not days.

The problem

The Friday-afternoon RFQ lands. Your rep opens eight spreadsheets, emails three departments - and quotes in four days. The competitor who quotes in four hours wins.

Margins erode silently

Input costs move weekly. A quote priced on Monday’s costs is unprofitable by Friday - and nobody notices until the invoice.

Capacity gets oversold

Sales can’t see the production calendar, so they promise volume the floor physically cannot make. Operations firefights every Monday.

Compliance is an afterthought

Certifications, allergens, and spec requirements get verified after the quote goes out - triggering rework loops and lost trust.

Not a product. A platform built for you.

Every deployment is built from scratch. For you.

We've built a production-ready Configure-Price-Quote platform powered by an embedded AI agent. It reads inbound RFQs, prices quotes against live costs and real capacity, validates compliance, and delivers a finished draft for your team to approve - in minutes, not days.

This is not a generic CPQ with a new skin. Every deployment is hyper-customized: your product catalog, your margin rules, your production calendar, your customer contracts, with optimized process flows and constraints managed end-to-end. Built from scratch to match how you actually operate.

STEP 01
RFQ arrives

Agent parses email and attachments: SKUs, quantities, specs, ship windows, certifications.

STEP 02
Agent drafts

Live costs, volume tiers, freight, capacity - composed into a margin-protected quote with math shown.

STEP 03
Team approves

Risks flagged, resolutions proposed. Agent never sends without human sign-off.

STEP 04
Sent & watched

Cost drift triggers auto re-quote. Full audit trail on every action taken.

What the agent does

A decision engine, not a quoting tool.

01

Email-to-quote

The agent reads the inbound email and attachments - spec PDFs, order spreadsheets, RFP documents - and drafts 80% of the quote. Low-confidence fields are highlighted for the rep, never guessed.

02

Live-cost formula pricing

Quotes priced against real-time input costs - commodities, freight, packaging - with caps, floors, and pass-through clauses. Every number carries a full price trace your CFO can defend.

03

Capacity-aware promising

Every line is checked against your live production calendar before send. If the ask doesn’t fit, the agent proposes resolutions - shift weeks, split plants, cap volume - with the cost of each.

04

Compliance pre-flight

Certifications, allergens, label claims, and buyer specs validated on every line - before the quote leaves the building. Mismatches are hard stops routed to QA, not footnotes.

05

Channel-aware pricing

One engine across retail, foodservice, distributors, private label, and e-commerce - resolving contracts, tiers, promos, and minimums in a strict order, with an audit breadcrumb for every price.

06

Monitor & re-quote

Accepted quotes are watched against their cost exposure. When an index breaches the band, a re-quote is auto-drafted - with the math shown - and routed to your rep for approval.

How it works

The agent drafts. Your team decides.

Autonomy you can defend in the boardroom. The agent has read access to your catalog, price books, cost feeds, and production calendar - and zero destructive permissions. All math is deterministic: the model never invents a number.

GUARDRAIL 01
Never sends alone

No quote leaves without explicit human approval. The rep is always the decision-maker; the agent is the analyst.

GUARDRAIL 02
Deterministic pricing

Prices come from your rules engine and live data. Tool-only retrieval. The language model assembles and explains; it never computes a price freehand.

GUARDRAIL 03
Everything audited

Every suggestion, edit, override, and approval lands in an immutable audit log, with diffs. Defensible to a buyer, an auditor, or a regulator.

GUARDRAIL 04
Hard stops on risk

Compliance mismatches and capacity conflicts block the send and route to the right approver (margin, QA, or operations) automatically.

The “today” and “with the agent” figures are directional targets, not guarantees — grounded in published CPQ benchmarks. Independent studies report quote-creation time falling 40–70%1 (often from days to minutes), conversion and win-rate uplifts of roughly 17–19%2, and approval cycles cut by up to 95%3.
Your actual baseline and targets are defined together in the discovery phase and measured against the audit log, not anecdotes.

Who it’s for

Built for businesses where quoting is genuinely complex: too many variables, too much cost exposure, and margins that leak when not every data point is in the room.

Horizontal CPQ platforms are strong on configuration but blind to your plant floor and your input costs. Industry ERPs are strong on production but stop at the order. Our agentic CPQ sits between them - built custom on your data, your rules, and your systems of record.
