A 70-year-old California custom manufacturer with 40,000 SKUs had a painfully manual quoting process.
Custom specs flowed into a legacy software system, were manually re-entered into a second system, which then advanced the bill of materials and generated an RFQ response. The team consistently missed their 48-hour turnaround target and spent significant time on back-and-forth with customers to collect missing information.
Remix Partners built an AI workbench inside Claude Code that converts legacy software output to machine-readable JSON, then automates the full RFQ workflow: catalog comparison across 40,000 SKUs, bill of materials generation, stakeholder notification, customer-ready pricing, and first-pass manufacturing drawing.
Complete build time for a custom AI workbench that replaced a multi-system manual process a 70-year-old company had run for decades
RFQ turnaround time cut nearly in half from a baseline the team had routinely missed with their manual process
AI workbench navigates the full parts catalog to match, price, and draft manufacturing drawings for every custom order
