According to the Conference Board, only 6% of all companies generate sustained growth; the rest fight a losing battle, unable to close the gap between "front-office" sales and internal "back-office" teams. This frustrates prospective customers searching for a vendor to build what they want when they want it. This gap is where most companies fail and let sales slip away to more nimble competitors. You can fill this gap with the first sensibly designed Enterprise Sales Portal that finally simplifies selling complex products and services. The Cincom Acquire sales configuration system captures and deploys expert knowledge into every sales cycle for faster, more accurate decision making. Rapid sales team collaboration enables everyone involved to effectively analyze customer needs, configure the right solution and generate accurate bids, estimates and proposals – all configured for accurate manufacturing.

"With Cincom products, we are now able to take the customers' performance needs and turn that directly into manufacturing requirements. Our business has more than doubled. Our number of orders is more than three times what they were when we started the project, yet we have half the number of people doing that order prep work.
