CINCINNATI, OHIO USA (November 27th, 2023) – Maverick Machine & Hydraulics and Helioz Technologies have implemented zipCPQ solution to shorten the sales process and improve customers’ digital experience.  

Challenges:  

Maverick Machine design, manufacture, and supply a wide range of standard and custom hydraulic cylinders. Configuring cylinders often involves intricate configurations based on specific customer requirements. The complexity of these configurations can lead to lengthy sales processes. Being accurate and fast is also important for the customers as well. Having a seamless sales process can enhance customer experience.  

Our primary goal is to shorten the time to respond to client requests for quotes. This will also have an impact on our entire delivery time.

-Brian Marshall, Managing Director at Maverick Machine

Solution: 

Their custom cylinders can be interactively configured on their website. Helioz team implemented zipCPQ into their website for a seamless configuration process. The solution features a 3D viewer with real-time visualization. It allows customers to see the product up close and inspect it at any angle.

zipCPQ covers all steps of the configurations, including size, diameter, port size, and end mounts. The customers choose the features based on their requirements. When the custom cylinder is completely configured, the customers can choose the quantity and add it to the quote request. After the successful quote request, Maverick Machine’s sales team gets an email with the requested quote.

The integration so far has been excellent at working out the details and changes we want to see happen. As soon as it launched, we started to see requests to expand our selection of mounts!
