From product choices to a clear quotation

01Overview

Turning complex product choices into a guided online experience

A business supplying made-to-measure products needed an online way for customers to select the specifications of items such as custom covers and vehicle body kits. Dimensions, materials and optional accessories affect both the product and its price, making a simple fixed-price catalogue unsuitable.

NaviTrends documented a phased digital solution: a web catalogue and interactive product configurators first, followed by a mobile application based on the same product and quotation workflows.

02The challenge

When every order depends on the customer’s specifications

Customers needed a straightforward way to describe exactly what they wanted without relying on lengthy back-and-forth conversations to establish dimensions and options. The sales team, meanwhile, needed consistent quotations based on product-specific pricing rules.

The solution also had to allow staff to maintain products and pricing, receive customer enquiries and manage quotation history without requesting technical changes for routine updates.

03Our approach

A custom product configurator designed around the quotation journey

The proposed first-phase web application focuses on three connected capabilities:

Interactive product configuration

Define product options such as dimensions, material and accessories, with the displayed price recalculated according to the selected specifications.

PDF quotations and sales enquiries

Generate a PDF quotation from the chosen configuration and send a quotation or order request to the sales team for review and manual validation.

Catalogue and pricing management

Provide customer accounts with quotation history and a back-office interface for maintaining products, pricing grids and incoming enquiries.

04Business value

A clearer route from configuration to sales enquiry

The proposed web solution would give customers a guided way to configure made-to-measure products and understand how their choices affect the price before submitting a request. PDF quotations and a central sales enquiry flow are designed to make follow-up more consistent.

For the business, an editable product catalogue and pricing back office would support day-to-day management. A mobile app was scoped as a separate second phase, rather than a feature of the initial web release. The source documents define the intended solution, not verified performance improvements or confirmed deployment results.
