West Springfield, MA, March 05, 2014 --(PR.com)-- MTI Systems announced today that ALPA Precision, L.L.P (Houston, TX) began using their Costimator® software in March of 2013. Their decision to invest arose after watching one demonstration of the estimating software.

Half way through the presentation, Alberto Lozano, Owner and President of Alpa Precision, saw just what he was hoping for – a better way to estimate quotes with multiple quantities - without duplicating steps in the process.

“We used to estimate quotes manually,” said Alberto Lozano. “Now Costimator automates much of what needs to be prepared and calculated. This not only helps us identify lower cost ways of manufacturing parts or performing manufacturing processes more quickly, it helps us deliver more of the information that our customers want – right in the beginning.”

In today’s competitive marketplace, customers want more information and choices as they decide what to buy. This includes the manufactured parts that get quoted by machining manufacturer, ALPA Precision.

More and more, customers request quotes that include multiple quantities and in many cases, the requests are long after the quote has already been submitted. No matter when the changes are made, customers still expect consistently accurate results - in a timely fashion.

“Costimator® reduces my quoting time by more than 20%,” remarks Lozano. “This provides more time to estimate more quotes and for double-checking quotes, as well as offering more programming time for manufacturing parts.”
