Quoting and workflow software for plastics manufacturers
Molded part quotes combine tooling, materials, cycle times and volumes. Customware helps plastics manufacturers turn that estimating know-how into repeatable software.
Workflows we build for plastics teams
Part and tooling quotes
Estimate molds, tooling and part costs using your own inputs and assumptions.
Material and BOM logic
Build structured BOMs from resin, colorant, insert and packaging choices.
Pricing exceptions
Handle volume breaks, amortized tooling and customer-specific pricing without spreadsheet gymnastics.
Approvals
Route new tooling, tight margins or unusual requests for sign-off.
Production handoff
Pass confirmed jobs to scheduling with specs and quantities attached.
Why generic software breaks down
- Quoting depends on estimator judgment that is rarely written down.
- Tooling amortization and volume pricing get rebuilt for every quote.
- Specs are re-entered between quoting, engineering and production.
How Customware works with your existing systems
Capture how you work
Your subject-matter experts walk us through the rules, exceptions and decisions behind the workflow.
Build it as software
Customware turns that knowledge into a governed application your team runs, alongside your ERP, CRM and spreadsheets.
Own and evolve it
You own the software, code and data, with no per-seat licenses, and it changes as your business does.
Frequently asked questions
Can it handle tooling amortization?
Yes, amortization logic can be built into your pricing rules based on how your team quotes tooling today.
Can estimators keep their own methods?
The point is to capture how your best estimators work, so the software reflects your methods rather than replacing them.
Do we own the quoting logic?
Yes. The software, code and data are owned by your company.
Does it replace our ERP?
No. It is meant to work alongside your ERP and hand off clean data.
