Groupe DEYA, Global French Manufacturer, Implements PROS Smart CPQ to Modernize Selling Strategies

PROS® today announced Groupe DEYA has implemented the PROS Smart CPQ solution in its Blocfer Division. The company, a global manufacturing powerhouse, is providing its sales teams with new guided selling capabilities that enable them to respond more quickly to customers in the digital era, with PROS configuration, pricing and quoting solution. Groupe DEYA plans to implement the solution across the entire span of its portfolio companies around the world.

The company sells across multiple channels and brands, including Deya and Kazed.

“We manufacture a broad range of products offered through a highly technical catalog that spans a number of channels,” said Groupe DEYA CIO Didier Glaine. “Our customers come to us with complex specifications, and our goal is to simplify the configuration and ordering process with guided selling. Now we’re able to harmonize offers and provide immediate responses for every request, with automated quote approvals that accelerate the sales cycle.

“With PROS Smart CPQ, we’ve also automated production times for every configuration, fully integrated with our Salesforce CRM and Microsoft Dynamics ERP platform,” Glaine continued. “Our catalogs are now immediately updated, which also lessens the burden on our IT teams. In 2018, we will extend the use of Smart CPQ to additional subsidiaries around the world. We appreciate the collaborative partnership we have with PROS, which enables us to better serve our customers and our sales teams.”

PROS Smart CPQ automates and simplifies configuration, pricing and quoting processes, empowering sales to instantly create accurate, personalized solutions for each customer.
