CPQ Finland Oy, Finland’s leading provider of consulting and solutions in Configure, Price, Quote (CPQ), pricing management, modular product structures, Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), and Service Lifecycle Management (SLM), is expanding its operations to the Benelux region.
Through this expansion, CPQ Finland aims to accelerate its growth strategy and extend its expert services to a broader customer base in the Benelux markets.
Stefaan Demey has been appointed to lead CPQ Finland’s Benelux operations. He is well known for his long career in sales at Vandewiele and for leading its Tacton CPQ project as digitalization manager.
The Next Step in Growth
“We are already recognized for our expertise in CPQ and product lifecycle consulting in Finland and through our direct customers across Europe. Last year, we expanded into pricing management by acquiring the Pricefx business from 1Solution Hub, and earlier this year, we entered into a partnership with Syncron to deliver service lifecycle management solutions that optimize aftermarket pricing and inventory management. In line with our growth strategy, expanding into Europe—and specifically the Benelux region—is a natural next step,” says Chairman of the Board, Veli-Matti Myllymäki.
“As our company enters new markets, we need local expertise to serve customers effectively. The Benelux region also represents a gateway for us to the French- and German-speaking markets. We already know Stefaan through our collaboration in the Vandewiele project and trust in his ability to grow our operations in the heart of Europe,” comments CEO Mikko Jokela.
“I am excited about this opportunity. This is an important step for me as well as for CPQ Finland. I was already familiar with CPQ Finland’s professional and reliable community, so I did not hesitate to join the team and contribute to developing the company’s core operations together with such a strong group. I believe that my commercial experience and passion for digitalization, combined with CPQ Finland’s expertise, will make a successful combination.” says Stefaan Demey.
