Simplifying Business Velocity: The Vendori Approach to CPQ Solutions

Business moves fast…

Listen to conversations around the office, and you will undoubtedly hear folks talk about velocity, the seldom-measured yet always laggard metric that keeps us from closing business. Sales leaders want the ability to package together multiple product and pricing options and quickly present these alternatives to prospective customers.

These variations inevitably require CPQ system changes, and even though finance, operations, and IT leaders are all focused on process improvement, trying to shave down service level agreements and increase performance, the output is never fast enough.

The back office is stuck thinking that a continuous improvement mindset will provide the desired speed and flexibility. Meanwhile, the customer-facing teams feel abandoned on the front-line, waiting for what they perceive to be simple requests. Eventually, executives intervene with the age-old solution – let’s drive simplicity throughout our ecosystem.

Balancing Sustainability and Simplicity in the Ecosystem

The challenge, of course, is that the ecosystem was designed for sustainability, not simplicity, which means that IT develops in sprints, migrates code between environments during outage weekends, and nothing rolls into production until it is tested, signed-off, etc.

This framework requires many teams to get involved, multiple handoffs, and SLAs, and whenever the approved requirements are finally ready for IT development, the enhancement is backlogged because demand always exceeds supply. Back office teams are stuck in what seems like an endless loop, sales teams are frustrated because nobody moves as fast as sales, and executives repeat the simplicity mantra. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Queue Vendori – born out of frustration with these inflexible CPQ solutions.
