Case Study: a major aerospace company achieves faster, audit-ready pricing with ProPricer

Leading Aerospace Supplier Streamlines Complex Pricing Process

A major aerospace company faced significant challenges in its complex pricing and proposal process for U.S. Government contracts. Relying on an antiquated ERP system and a collection of error-prone, unmanageable Excel spreadsheets, the company struggled with accuracy, compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR), and lengthy audit times. The lack of a centralized system introduced substantial risk and inefficiency, prompting the need for a new solution. They selected ProPricer, a market-leading estimating and pricing system, to standardize and streamline their operations.

By implementing ProPricer, the company centralized its data into a single, unified database, enabling the reuse of cost algorithms and simplifying the management of time-phased data. The solution provided standardized, FAR-compliant reporting and robust version control, which drastically reduced errors and improved auditability. As a result, ProPricer helped the company reduce proposal development time by an average of 50% and slashed the time to consolidate a bill of materials from 80 hours to just 17 minutes, delivering massive gains in efficiency and reliability.
