Confirm the selected SKU
Receive or manually select the approved pump or valve item using the agreed technical-selection process.
Pumps, valves & fluid handling
Commercial CPQ for pump and valve distributors and manufacturers
Fluid-handling sales often start with a technical selection made by a specialist, then move into accessories, replacement parts, customer terms, pricebooks and quote approvals. QuotePoint addresses that commercial handoff; it is not a hydraulic sizing or engineering selection engine.
Fluid-handling quote example
From specialist selection to a governed distributor quotation.
A specialist confirms a pump model suitable for a customer's duty point outside QuotePoint. A commercial seller then needs to quote the approved unit with a spare seal kit, installation and contract pricing.
Add authorized extras
Choose the compatible spare kit, service or accessory items under commercial rule constraints.
Price for the account
Resolve contract or distributor-level pricing and evaluate margin on the package.
Approve and present
Route only policy exceptions and generate the governed customer quote.
Why it matters
Scope boundary: QuotePoint does not natively promise pump curves, pressure-drop calculations, valve Cv sizing, compliance certification or engineered BOM generation.
A valid technical selection still needs a consistent commercial quote.
Technical specifications and commercial SKUs may be maintained separately.
Seal kits, actuators, controls, spares and installation items may be required.
Manufacturers and distributors quote through different price levels.
Custom discounts or contract pricing can create margin exceptions.
Re-keying a technically selected configuration into a quote introduces mistakes.
How QuotePoint approaches it
Start from an approved commercial item
Create governed product/SKU records for pump, valve, accessory and service lines; use upstream engineering selection to establish technical suitability where needed.
Add practical accessory dependencies
Model commercially required components and compatible add-ons such as actuators, mounting kits or service packages, without claiming to replace fluid calculations.
Manage supplier and dealer price levels
Use authorized customer/channel price contexts and effective dates rather than distributing the latest workbook whenever pricing changes.
Review exceptions before sending
Set discount, margin, product or channel approval conditions and keep the decision attached to the quote lifecycle.
Keep quote revisions traceable
Maintain the governed path from configuration and price to approved customer-facing output and downstream order context.
Integrate with engineering where necessary
If sizing or engineering configuration is complex, confirm the required data handoff from a specialized selector. QuotePoint provides the commercial workflow around a validated product choice.
Who this is for
A strong fit when these conditions are familiar.
Pump and valve distributors
Fluid-handling equipment resellers
Manufacturers with channel-specific commercial pricing
Aftermarket parts and accessory quoting teams
Sales groups with engineering-to-commercial handoffs
Common questions
Questions about pumps, valves & fluid handling
Does QuotePoint calculate pump or valve sizing?
No. Use a qualified engineering selector for hydraulic performance and technical suitability. QuotePoint can manage the validated commercial products and quote process.
Can it manage repair kits and optional accessories?
QuotePoint can model commercially valid products, required accessories and dependencies for quoting. Validate each product family's configuration rules before deployment.
Would this replace our ERP?
No. QuotePoint's focus is configure, price, approve and quote, while inventory, procurement and fulfillment can remain in ERP.
