For manufacturers

Quote the spec. Price to your cost.

Camber resolves the engineered spec on every RFQ, checks that it's a job your shop can actually build, and prices it from your own cost basis.

The workflow

From an open spec to a quote you know you can build.

Person reviewing data on a laptop

The request arrives

From a distributor, an OEM, or a direct account, on your own part number or an open engineering spec. Email, PDF, drawing, or spreadsheet: send it to Camber without leaving your inbox, and every request lands in one queue.

Mechanical shaft and linkage

The spec is resolved

Tolerance class, material, finish, and every callout on the drawing become structured attributes, not description text your team has to re-read every time.

Feasibility and certifications are checked

Camber runs a first-pass feasibility check on the resolved spec: whether the tolerances are ones your shop can hold, and whether you carry the certifications the job requires. It flags what it can't confirm instead of guessing.

It's priced to your cost

Pricing starts from your own cost basis: material, labor, and overhead. Then your margin floor applies by product family. No catalog to match against because there isn't one.

Sourcing

When you can't cover a line in-house, Camber goes and finds who can.

Manufacturers turn down business every week because a job needs material, outside processing, or tooling they can't cover in-house, and nobody has time to chase it down. Camber has a sourcing flow built in: it drafts outreach to your material suppliers, outside processors, and tooling vendors, your rep sends it, and the replies come straight back into the same RFQ as priced, sourced lines.

01

Camber flags what you can't cover in-house

A line that needs material you don't stock, processing you don't run, or tooling you don't have is called out clearly, not silently dropped or misquoted.

02

Your rep sends outreach from inside Camber

Your vendor list stays yours. Camber recommends who fits the job from the vendor capabilities it tracks, drafts the email, and follows the thread, no separate inbox or outreach tool.

03

Replies land back in the same quote

Sourced lines come back priced and ready, sitting next to the lines you built yourself, one quote either way.

Certifications & standards

Certifications and standards, cross-referenced automatically.

Camber cross-references callouts against IFI, ASTM, SAE, ABMA, DIN, ISO, and NAS. Where a job falls under AS9100, Nadcap, or IATF 16949, that traceability carries through to the quote line rather than dropping at intake.

Margin control

Price from your cost, not a guess.

Four controls apply to every quote automatically, whether it's a part you've built a thousand times or one you've never quoted before.

Cost-basis pricing

Material, labor, and overhead inputs drive the price, not a catalog list or a competitor's number.

Cost-driven repricing

When material costs, surcharges, or tariffs move, active quotes reprice automatically. You never quote off last month's costs.

Margin floors by product family

Set the floor once per family or job type. Camber enforces it on every quote, not just the ones a manager has time to check.

Audit trail

Every override is logged: who, when, how far below floor, and whether it cleared as a soft warning or a routed approval.

Your ERP

Camber sits on top of your ERP. It doesn't replace it.

Camber is built to work with whatever ERP you run. Your ERP stays the system of record, and Camber hands back structured, priced quote lines any system can take in.

What Camber doesn't do

The judgment stays with your team.

It doesn't set your pricing strategy. It doesn't send a quote without a human reviewing it. And it doesn't make the engineering call on a substitution or a sourced part. It surfaces the options and the evidence so your team can.

See it resolve one of your own RFQs.
