Every quote ties up your best people for hours, while the customer waits for days. AI reads the drawings, finds similar orders in your history and proposes a pre-filled quote: your estimator validates instead of starting from scratch.
In industrial subcontracting, the quote is the first commercial act: it decides the order before production even starts. Yet it remains slow to produce, dependent on a few people and uneven from one file to the next.
Quoting ties up your best profiles for hours per order, while a good share of quotes will never turn into a purchase order.
Response time has become a selection criterion: when your quote goes out in five days, the competitor who answered in 24 hours has already taken the order.
Reliability depends on who quotes: from one estimator to the next, margins vary, and forgotten items (treatments, transport, rework) are paid for on the order.
Your cost history sits idle in the ERP and Excel files: every quote starts from a blank page instead of building on similar orders already produced.
The quote goes out before your competitors': on consultations, response speed wins orders.
Calculation rules are the same for every file: no more margin gaps depending on the estimator or the day.
Treatments, transport, rework: the forgotten items that eat into margin are included systematically.
The time saved on extraction and data entry is reinvested in complex orders and negotiation.
Your data stays in France, hosted with OVH or Scaleway, or even on-premise. Sovereign models (Mistral) where relevant. GDPR and AI Act compliance handled by design.
A French team dedicated to your project. Short cycles, weekly demos, continuous user validation. No offshore, no black box.
ROI is quantified from the scoping stage, the scope is clear, go/no-go decisions are transparent. You know what you pay and what you gain before you start.

Comment l'IA résout ce problème
The AI reads the input documents (drawings, specifications, BOMs), extracts the useful characteristics (dimensions, material, tolerances, quantities), finds similar orders in your history and proposes a pre-filled quote: routing, times, material, price. The estimator validates, adjusts and sends. They no longer start from scratch, they arbitrate.
Les briques techniques
Document extraction with vision and language models (PDF drawings, specifications, emails; CAD formats depending on scope). Similarity matching against your order history. Costing engine configured on your rules (material, machine time, margins). Validation interface for the estimator, ERP or CRM integration. Sovereign or on-premise hosting.
Les données mobilisées
Your past quotes and their outcome (won, lost, real margin), your routings and actual production times, your material and subcontracting rates. As input, customer drawings and specifications. A few hundred historical orders are enough to start; the richer the history, the more accurate the quoting.
