In the world of precision engineering, time is often the greatest cost. For Novogear, a leading manufacturer of gear components and drive systems, responding quickly and accurately to customer inquiries had become a bottleneck. Manual estimation processes were tying up experts, delaying offers, and occasionally resulting in missed business opportunities. In collaboration with gateB, Novogear turned to data—and the results were transformative.
Creating cost estimates for custom-engineered parts is no small feat. The process required coordination across departments, deep technical insight, and a significant amount of manual work. With over 15 production steps, multiple material configurations, and a range of suppliers, each quote demanded hours of expert input. Delays weren’t just inconvenient—they meant lost revenue.
Together with Novogear, gateB developed a data-driven application that automates the offer creation process. By analyzing historical production data, the tool can now generate cost estimates in seconds—cutting down turnaround times dramatically.
Here’s how it works:
Crucial to the project’s success was a close collaboration between Novogear’s engineering experts and gateB’s data and algorithm specialists. This interdisciplinary approach ensured both technical accuracy and practical usability.
The impact was immediate and measurable:
Beyond speed and precision, the solution also freed up engineering capacity and improved customer responsiveness—giving Novogear a competitive edge in a highly specialized market.
This success story illustrates how industrial companies can unlock real value through targeted, data-driven automation. Key takeaways include:
By embedding data science into core operations, Novogear isn’t just accelerating quotes—it’s accelerating transformation.
