ZERO1 Quote / For engineering-led custom manufacturers
Quote the next job. Keep building this one.
A new RFQ shouldn't pull your best engineers off the work in progress. ZERO1 Quote turns your past jobs, drawings and company records into a source-linked draft. Your estimator decides the price and what gets sent.
A quote, ready to review.Source-linked draft. Open questions visible.
Your estimator sets the price & approves release.
Past work in. A reviewable draft out. Your estimator decides. Every part of the draft links back to its source. Illustrative RFQs, not a live product view.
The pressure is real
Speed matters. So does getting it right.
15%
of manufacturers in Tacton's 2026 survey of 280 leaders reported responding to RFQs within 24 hours.
Separate 2026 and 2022 industry surveys, not ZERO1 customer outcomes or a measured quote-win rate. A fast answer only helps when the manufacturer can stand behind it.
The quoting bottleneck
The next opportunity lands on the people already delivering today's work.
For engineering-intensive manufacturers, an RFQ is rarely a single clean form. The answer may depend on drawings, similar jobs, material assumptions, existing rules and the person who remembers why a past quote changed.
01
The request is scattered.
Specs arrive through email and attachments while useful history sits in old jobs, spreadsheets and the ERP.
02
Expert time is scarce.
The engineers needed to check a new job are also needed to deliver the work already sold.
03
Speed without judgment is risky.
A missed revision or unsupported assumption can turn a quick response into an inaccurate commitment.
ZERO1 Quote
From incoming RFQ to a draft your estimator can verify.
Quote prepares the work around your existing history. It does not set final prices or send customer commitments on its own.
01 / Capture
Start with the request.
Bring in the inquiry, drawings, quantities and requested date. Keep missing inputs visible.
02 / Find
Pull relevant past work.
Locate similar jobs and the records behind them, with source links the team can inspect.
03 / Prepare
Show a working draft.
Organize useful context and open questions so review starts from evidence instead of a blank page.
04 / Decide
Keep the manufacturer in control.
Your team verifies technical fit, sets pricing and approves what leaves the business.
How we work with you
You get Quote. We handle the technical build.
Your team shouldn't have to run an AI project on top of shipping work. We build, connect and maintain Quote around your records and review process with ZERO1 Core, our internal build system. Your estimators just use it.
What you use
ZERO1 Quote
A focused quoting workflow built around your records and review process.
What we operate
ZERO1 Core
Our internal system for adapting, maintaining and improving Quote.
What stays yours
Business judgment
Your people own technical fit, pricing rules, exceptions and release.
Built and tested in a paid pilot with a custom manufacturer.
What we measure
More quoting capacity. Measured across the whole job.
A draft only counts if it saves time after review and corrections. We track the whole job, from the RFQ landing to the quote going out, so you can see exactly what changed.
