The problem

Where the money slips out.

RFQs wait days in an inbox

The buyer sent it to three shops. The first price back usually wins.

One estimator is the bottleneck

Everything routes through the same person — and they're buried.

Quotes go out and nobody follows up

Open quotes die quietly because nobody calls on day 5.

POs get re-keyed by hand

Orders arrive by email and someone types them into the ERP.
