Overview
Epicor CPQ, formerly KBMax, is a visual configure-price-quote platform that Epicor acquired in May 2021. It is built around 3D visual configuration and engineering automation, letting buyers and reps interactively configure complex products in 3D while the system enforces business rules and generates downstream engineering outputs.
A core strength is its Snap rules engine combined with CAD automation: configurations can generate CAD drawings and dynamic bills of materials, with direct integration to CAD tools such as SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, and PTC Creo, and those BOMs can pass into an ERP system. This makes Epicor CPQ well suited to manufacturers of complex, engineered products who want to connect sales configuration to engineering and production. Epicor offers it both as a standalone, cloud-first low/no-code toolset and integrated into the Epicor suite.
The platform supports visual configuration in 3D, AR, and VR, self-service buying experiences, and rules-driven pricing and quoting. It serves mid-market and enterprise manufacturers and integrates with Salesforce as well as Epicor ERP.
