Three problems we see over and over
Experlogix CPQ is an incredibly powerful tool — that's not flattery, it's our professional opinion after years of building on it. But CPQ sits at the intersection of your products, your pricing, and your sales process, and keeping it healthy takes deep, dedicated expertise. There's more demand for that expertise than there are people who can supply it. That gap is why we exist.
The Feature That Never Gets Built
You need a real enhancement — a new configurator behavior, a pricing rule, an integration touchpoint. But it's too small to justify a professional-services engagement, and the queue for one is long anyway. So it sits in the backlog, quarter after quarter, while your sales team works around it.
Every Change Breaks Two Things
Configurations run slow. The rule logic has grown into something nobody fully understands anymore. Small changes take weeks because every edit risks breaking something else — and testing is manual and nervous.
Stuck on Yesterday's Version
Years of configuration debt stand between you and the version you should be running. Every upgrade conversation ends the same way: too risky, too big, not this quarter. Meanwhile the gap keeps growing.
One call. One price. One date.
The engagement model is the whole pitch. You book a scoping call. We examine your system and give you a written answer: whether the problem is fixable, what it costs, and the date it will be delivered. Then that's what happens.
Most CPQ consulting is billed by the hour, which puts the schedule risk on your side of the table. We take it onto ours: we don't sell hours. To our knowledge, we are the only fixed-fee Experlogix delivery option in existence — because we're confident enough in our estimates to own them.
CBASCo's principal architected CPQ systems at Experlogix itself — leading major implementations for complex manufacturers, building conversion tooling, and pushing the rule engine well past what the documentation covers. Before that: four decades of production software across petroleum, manufacturing, financial services, and retail.
Our Experlogix work spans heavy equipment, industrial products, and build-to-order manufacturing — implementations where the configurator carries the entire sales process, not just the price list.
Our delivery pipeline is augmented by agentic AI tooling we built for ourselves. It's how a small senior team commits to dates that hourly shops can't.
No black boxes. Nothing that voids anything.
Everything we deliver is standard Experlogix configuration. Fully documented. Fully supportable — by the vendor, by your team, by whoever comes after us. No custom runtime, no proprietary layer, no dependency on CBASCo to keep the lights on. When we hand over, your system is easier to maintain than we found it.
