European packaging manufacturer gains greater scalability, transparency and insight

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, June 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Configit, the world leader in configuration lifecycle management (CLM), today announced that packaging giant Sidel will use Configit Ace® to transform its manufacturing process. configuration, price and quotation (CPQ). Configit’s CLM technology integrated with CPQ will provide greater scalability, transparency, and insight.

Sidel is a leading provider of equipment, services and complete solutions for the packaging of liquids, food and household and personal care products. There are more than 40,000 Sidel machines in operation every day in more than 190 countries. With all these different machines, the company needed a better approach to its CPQ process.

Sidel chose Configit Ace as its new future-proof platform to improve the overall user experience when configuring Sidel machines and combining valid product combinations in a single source of information.

Johan Salenstedt, CEO of Configit, said: “When it comes to configuration, there are two common approaches: some companies approach it from a purely sales and marketing oriented perspective, while others use a purely engineering oriented perspective. Our Configit Ace platform has an advantage over standard CPQ in that it alleviates silos and eliminates significant disconnects that organizations can experience in terms of ensuring that what is offered to customers is what can actually be provided.”
