Configuration Solutions, Inc., a leading provider of enterprise-wide product configuration and selling solutions--from quote to delivery--has announced a new and enhanced version of CS-Connect, one of the core modules in the company's CS-Enterprise solution. CS-Enterprise is a suite of end-to-end applications that automate information and collaborative workflow processes to help guide the selling process, streamline quote-to-sale infrastructures, drive out operating costs, improve workflow efficiency and eliminate rework of orders, while improving profits.
CS-Connect is a flexible, intelligent integration control system that simplifies bi-directional data formatting, data exchange and replication to support business processes and user objectives. Recent enhancements to the CS-Connect integration engine include powerful, rules-based object adapters which enable fast, automatic connection to enterprise system database applications, such as ERP, MES and CRM, as well as to on-demand channel applications, such as Salesforce.com--without the need to write additional code. As a result, the new release of CS-Connect significantly reduces implementation time and costs by eliminating the need for redundant data entry and associated maintenance costs.
According to Dale Colosky, president and CEO of Configuration Solutions, "CS-Connect is the first integration engine to offer this level of automation and rapid integration between disparate applications. This enhancement provides a measurable benefit to our customers, allowing them to drive critical data through the enterprise and better leverage their IT assets--without disrupting the business or putting more pressure on their IT organization."
Product enhancements to CS-Connect and other modules of CS-Enterprise are part of Configuration Solutions' strategic plan to extend and fortify its software solutions across a broader range of business processes and industries. The company recently strengthened its automotive solution suite with the acquisition of Helix Technologies Group, a firm dedicated to the development of engineering change and program/project management software for automotive parts suppliers.
Configuration Solutions (CS) is a leading provider of knowledge-based process and product configuration software and solutions for manufacturing, automotive and business service organizations. For more than 15 years, the organization has worked with leading organizations--from Global 2000 to small and midsize companies--providing enterprise-wide solutions across all facets of the business, from front-end sales and order management, to more sophisticated engineering and factory floor operations.
