The Quota workup estimation software is a software application developed for manufacturing a printed circuit board. The main problems that the software solves are related to logistics and optimization of used parts. The quota workup estimation software also calculates estimations of budgets for production printed circuits. This windows desktop software helps to estimate the cost of production of the printed circuit board using the costs of work and parts.
This software uses several smart data scrapers which collect actual prices and abilities of parts on the websites of manufacturers. After this software automatically chooses the best supplier for each part by price and package. Package size is the most important detail, which makes influences the total budget. The number of parts units in the package and price have to be chosen optimally.
When software works with a project, it does the following actions.
Step 1. Creation of new project or loading of saved project.
Step 2. Import of specifications (BOM), which store names of parts and their quantity.
Step 3. Distribution of parts by types. Each type of part has its own mount time and cost of mount.
Step 4. Getting parts costs and selection of the best suppliers for each part. Correctly choosing a supplier make sense package of parts, prices differ on the number of parts in the package. The software uses information about the parts quantity that we need, package size, and prices. If required the app also does searches for replacements of parts. This is the smartest part of the whole project.
Step 5. Final calculations and estimations of time and cost for current specifications. Using this software allowed to my customer decrease the number of mistakes in calculations and save much time that he spent on such estimations before.
This is one of the most helpful desktop application I’ve ever developed!
