Estimators using quoting software for manufacturing

Protect your bottom line with fast, accurate costing and pricing

Cost Faster and Price Smarter with Paperless Parts

Our software analyzes part geometry in CAD models to estimate costs quickly, while customized pricing logic helps ensure profitability and reduce risk.

Pricing and Costing Logic Tailored to Your Shop

PCA_CustomRouterTemplates-and-GeometryDrivenCosting

Capture critical legacy knowledge about how your shop quotes and builds its parts and deploy fully customizable router templates. Our software will examine the geometry of your parts and determine which processes are required, so your estimators can get a head start.

PCA_CustomPricingTemplates-and-DynamicMarkupMargins

Establish a centrally-managed set of pricing formulas for how to mark up your labor, materials, overhead and more. 

PCA_ID-PC-and-LivePricing

Get real-time, customized quotes for metal from our partners, OnlineMetals® and Thyssenkrupp. Automatically identify purchased components (fasteners, inserts, and most types of hardware) and instantly access and compare live pricing and fastener availability directly from select distributors without having to leave your quote.

PCA_SheetMetal-and-CNC-FeatureExtraction-DFM

Paperless Parts’ geometric interrogations identify key part dimensions, manufacturing features, and potential manufacturability issues. From there, customize attributes based on your shop’s capabilities to automatically highlight potential design for manufacturability (DfM) warnings, helping prevent costly mistakes.

PCA_Nesting

Our in-app nesting tools allow you to automatically optimize the cost of material and labor for multiple sheet metal parts by predicting shared cutting patterns. You can also unfold CAD files to extract important pricing parameters like dimensions, cut length, and number of pieces required.

PCA_BulkActions

Save valuable time and reduce clicks (and opportunities for mistakes) by bulk creating line items, applying materials, assigning estimators and performing other actions at scale. Search for similar and matching parts in the Parts Viewer and access historical data to quickly determine important costing variables like setup time and run time. When a revised quote or quotes for similar parts are needed, you can make those updates with just a few clicks.

Paperless Parts Wingman™

Your AI-powered assistant for faster, smarter quoting in Paperless Parts.

Wingman™ is a secure, cutting-edge AI tool inside Paperless Parts that automatically extracts key details from quote packages to help you get to the meat of quoting faster. Wingman recognizes over 10,000 ASTM, AMS, MIL-SPEC, NADCAP, GD&T, and OEM-specific process/material specifications, highlights them on prints, and presents their definitions right next to the print. It pulls threads, common process keywords, part and revision number, CUI, material, and 3D models with PMI from 3D annotations in 3D PDFs. It’s like having an extra team member who’s got your back 24/7.

“Paperless Parts sped up our quoting process and leveraged all our historic data. A few extra minutes doesn’t seem like a lot, but it makes a huge difference with our customers. Today’s buyers want to move quickly, so it was important that we prioritized turnaround time over a highly engineered quote.”

“We realized growth was happening in the shop, but our office functions couldn’t keep up. Now with Paperless Parts, our design and quoting processes are instantaneous. It’s easier for our estimation engineers to program, model, quote, and nest projects. It’s all one cohesive process that’s much faster.”

“Paperless Parts is the only software we have purchased that has actually come through for us…It is an absolute
no-brainer for anyone who works in a shop. The ability to throw a 3D model into the software and get a price out
instantly sounds too good to be true, but it isn’t.”
