Your agency for custom CPQ-software solutions
The sitewerk CPQ framework
CPQ-framework for individual configurators

The advantages of a production ready product, the flexibility of custom software
With the Sitewerk CPQ Framework, you benefit from all the advantages of a ready-to-use product while retaining the flexibility of a customized configurator solution. Standard features such as user management with roles and permissions, master data management, as well as lead generation, offer creation, and product logic management are already included in the CPQ Framework.
This not only helps you reduce costs but also allows you to focus on what truly adds value in a configurator project with Sitewerk – such as developing a custom-designed configurator UI with outstanding user experience or creating photorealistic 3D visualizations.
Thanks to the modular structure of our CPQ Framework, we can easily integrate external systems such as ERP, CRM, or PIM solutions. Let’s work together to define where we should place the focus in your project – ensuring a solution that perfectly meets your specific needs.
Custom configuration interface with outstanding UX
With Sitewerk's CPQ configurators, we put the user at the centre. In comparison to conventional CPQ-products, user interfaces are not generated, but are specifically thought out, conceived and designed for each configurator. Our CPQ-solutions are therefore easy to use, have an appealing design, adapted to your corporate design and thus create exceptionally positive customer experiences. Since our framework includes all common CPQ features out-of-the-box, we can focus on what counts in the project, namely the user experience.
In our CPQ Admin Interface, you maintain the rules for the price and product logic
Our CPQ-system is designed in such a way that every conceivable product or service can be mapped. It doesn't matter whether it's a piece of sports equipment like a bicycle or the façade of a house. Our system for product and rule logic is generically structured and can be maintained via an administrator-UI. The same applies to generated leads and their configurations, as well as the management of users and their authorisations.
A fully integrated CPQ-software at the heart of your sales machine
If you want to automate processes and reduce costs, different systems must be seamlessly integrated with each other via interfaces and there must be as few media breaks as possible. This is also the case with CPQ. If CPQ-software is integrated with CRM, ERP and other peripheral systems via APIs, it not only digitises the sales process, but can also generate a productivity boost when preparing production data, documentation or in aftersales. Our CPQ-framework has a service bus that can be used to integrate any API's from all conceivable peripheral systems.
«We are five times bigger than our second largest competitor. One of the main reasons for this was that we had a CPQ-solution from Sitewerk.»

What advantages does CPQ-software bring to your company?
Efficiency increase and cost reduction
A CPQ-configurator-solution automates the entire quotation process from configuration to pricing and quotation generation. This leads to a significant increase in efficiency, as sales staff can create extensive offers for complex products faster and with less expertise. In addition to reducing the workload of sales staff, partners or customers can even configure products independently and receive an individual quotation for them. Without any prior knowledge.
Avoiding misconfigurations and returns
By automating and standardising the quotation process and a defined product logic with rules and dependencies, a CPQ-solution reduces human error and prevents incorrect configurations or inconsistent in quotations. This has a positive impact on returns or misproduction, which in turn will have a positive impact on costs.
Customer-specific solutions
A CPQ-configurator allows customers to customise products or services according to their individual requirements and preferences. This allows companies to offer customised solutions and thus increase the user experience. Individualisation is a megatrend. Especially for complex and expensive products, configurators and CPQ-solutions have become indispensable.
Digitalisation and automation through integration
A good CPQ-solution can be seamlessly integrated into existing CRM, ERP and e-commerce systems, ensuring a smooth flow of information without media discontinuity. If a customer or sales employee configures a product and generates an offer, a lead is automatically recorded in the CRM. With the help of the configurator data, production data can also be generated in addition to quotations, for example.
Competitive advantage
To prepare a quotation for a complex product, you often need staff with a lot of expertise. Since good staff is often in short supply, customers wait a long time for a quotation. With the help of CPQ-software, customers or sales staff can have customised quotes created within minutes and without any expertise. This fast response time will have a positive impact on the customer experience and can be a decisive advantage over the competition.

FAQ -frequently asked questions
- What is CPQ software?
CPQ stands for Configure, Price, Quote and describes the overall process used to configure, price, and generate quotes for complex products or services. Configure: In this step, a product or service is customized according to the specific needs and preferences of the customer. Price: The system calculates the price dynamically based on factors such as configuration options, quantities, discounts, and special conditions. Quote: Finally, a personalized quote is generated for the potential customer. It includes all details of the configured solution, including pricing, delivery conditions, and other relevant information.
- Which companies benefit from a CPQ solution?
CPQ software is particularly useful for companies with complex products, many variants, or individualized pricing structures. This is often the case in industries such as manufacturing, mechanical engineering, construction supply, or technical product manufacturing. Companies that create project-based offers or use complex pricing models can also benefit greatly from automated quoting processes.
- What benefits does CPQ provide for sales teams?
CPQ software significantly speeds up the quoting process. Sales teams can configure products faster, automatically calculate prices, and generate quotes directly. At the same time, CPQ reduces errors in product configurations and pricing calculations, ensuring that quotes always comply with current product rules and pricing policies.
- How long does it take to implement CPQ software?
The implementation time largely depends on the complexity of the products, pricing logic, and existing systems. Smaller projects can often be implemented within a few months, while larger CPQ implementations may take longer. In many cases, solutions are introduced step by step, starting with selected product groups or markets.
- What are the most common challenges when implementing CPQ systems?
Common challenges include integrating the solution into existing systems or e-commerce platforms, modeling complex product logic, and ensuring user adoption. Unclear requirements, poor data quality, and limited understanding of CPQ processes can also affect the success of the project. With a well-defined project plan, high-quality CPQ software, and consistent consulting throughout the process, these risks can be minimized and a successful implementation can be achieved.
