Furniture
Drive contract and commercial furniture quoting with fabrics, finishes, and modular configurations.
Contract and commercial furniture is the original configure-to-order business. quortix.ai brings fabrics, finishes, modular layouts, and project-based pricing into one workspace — with dealer multipliers and discount schedules living alongside the product catalog, not buried in spreadsheets.
Furniture has always been configure-to-order
Contract and commercial furniture selling is fundamentally a configure-to-order business: every piece is specified by fabric, finish, grade, frame color, and dimension before a single unit ships. The challenge is that the combinatorial space is enormous — a single seating family might have dozens of fabric grades, multiple finish options, several frame configurations, and arm variants that interact with each other. Managing that in a spreadsheet requires a specialist who knows which combinations are valid, which are special order, and which don't exist. When that person leaves, so does the institutional knowledge.
Project pricing, dealer multipliers, and discount schedules
Furniture revenue is usually channel-mediated: dealers buy at net, apply multipliers, and quote projects against list. quortix.ai manages the full pricing model — list prices, dealer multipliers, project discount tiers, and special-bid pricing — as part of the catalog. A dealer quoting a 200-seat conference room project sees their applied pricing automatically, with volume tiers kicking in at the right thresholds. No more emailing the manufacturer for a special-bid calculation.
- Fabric, finish, and grade matrices managed as part of the product model.
- Invalid and special-order combinations flagged at configuration time.
- Dealer multipliers and net pricing applied automatically by channel tier.
- Project-based volume pricing with configurable discount tiers.
- Quick-ship vs. custom lead times surfaced at the line level.
Lead time and quick-ship management
In furniture, lead time is a selling point — or a deal-breaker. A customer furnishing a new office under a deadline may accept a limited fabric palette for quick-ship availability. quortix.ai models lead-time eligibility as part of the configuration: quick-ship options are only available for eligible combinations, and custom configurations carry the appropriate extended lead time. Reps aren't guessing — the system tells them what ships when.
Common use cases
