01
OEM cost breakdown generation
Generate customer-specific cost breakdowns in OEM-required formats with material, labor, burden, tooling, and profit split out per their templates.
Volume discrete · Quoting Module
Win automotive programs with data-driven quotes.
Automotive quoting demands PPAP-ready cost breakdowns, multi-year volume projections, and OEM-specific submission formats. Dynamism Factory structures the entire quoting process around the way automotive programs are actually awarded.
Capabilities
What the Quoting module does for Automotive & EV.
Ingest RFQs, retrieve similar jobs, generate accurate quotes, and route approvals without spreadsheets.
02
Program lifecycle pricing
Model multi-year pricing with annual volume projections, price-down schedules, and material escalation clauses built into the quote structure.
03
Should-cost validation
Cross-reference estimated costs against actual production data from similar parts to validate assumptions before submission.
04
Tooling and capital cost modeling
Calculate tooling amortization, fixture costs, and capital equipment depreciation across projected program volumes.
Why it matters
Where Automotive & EV teams get stuck.
These problems look operational on the surface, but they are usually coordination and information problems underneath.
01
OEM cost breakdown formats differ by customer and change with every new program cycle.
02
Tooling amortization, annual price-down commitments, and volume tier pricing require complex modeling.
03
Material cost volatility makes multi-year pricing commitments risky without escalation clauses.
04
Quote turnaround pressure means estimators skip should-cost analysis and rely on gut feel.
Use cases
How teams use Quoting in Automotive & EV.
Real workflows that connect the module to the problems above.
01
New vehicle platform bid
Respond to a Tier 1 RFQ with complete cost breakdowns for 15 part numbers across three volume scenarios with tooling and PPAP costs included.
02
Annual price-down negotiation
Use actual production cost data to model where continuous improvement savings can fund price reductions versus where margins are already compressed.
03
Engineering change cost impact
When an OEM issues an engineering change, calculate the cost impact across open quotes and active programs within hours.
