Kaba Looks to Cincom CPQ for Improved Consistency Across Organization

CINCINNATI, OH--(Marketwired - December 07, 2015) - Kaba Access Systems Americas, a leading security and access control solution provider, has selected Cincom CPQ™ to assist in its efforts to standardize configuration processes and improve quoting consistency across all divisions of the company.

Kaba's decision to go with Cincom, a company that has been providing software and technology solutions for businesses since 1968, comes at a time of rapid growth for the organization. Consistent merger and acquisition activity in the highly fragmented security systems market has brought with it a number of challenges -- hurdles they're hoping Cincom can help them overcome.

"Every group under the Kaba umbrella approached configuration its own way," Michel Barriault, Vice President of Customer Service and Support explained. "With Cincom CPQ, we believe we've found a solution capable of handling the variety of products we offer, including all of their variations and pricing challenges."

In the Americas, Kaba operates in a Microsoft Dynamics® AX environment across its different divisions, ranging from crowd-flow products to traditional electronic locks and keys. Cincom's easy integration with Dynamics AX and partnership with Microsoft® made the project an ideal match for both Kaba and Cincom.

"Seeing what Cincom CPQ could do in terms of improving consistency and accuracy in quoting across all divisions of our company was the real 'wow' factor for us," Barriault said. "We believe this is going to empower our sales reps to take their business to another level."

The decision to proceed with Cincom CPQ has also laid the foundation for Kaba's Microsoft Dynamics partner, Fullscope, to implement Microsoft Dynamics CRM across all North American business segments.

"We're confident this will be a big win for everyone involved -- Kaba, Fullscope and Cincom -- when all is said and done. At the end of the day, that's really our goal as a business," said Gillis West, Vice President of Sales and Services of the Americas at Cincom. "We've enjoyed working with the Kaba team and are looking forward to being a part of their continued success."
