BPI indupac

BPI indupac is a business unit of RPC bpi group and a European leader in the manufacture of heavy duty polythene solutions. If you’ve ever held a six-pack—think Coca-Cola, beer from Jupiler or Heineken—you’ve held the work of BPI. They produce the plastic around these cans. And because BPI is working with many different polythene solutions and high volume, they need fast order entry that makes it simple to choose from many options. e-Con CPQ was BPI indupac’s tool of choice, because it combines stellar CPQ, flexible portal access, and a full marriage with Microsoft Dynamics.

With e-Con CPQ BPI configures orders based on customer data and specs for cans, plastic, quantity, and quality. Users work with ease via an online portal. e-Con gives users a guided, secure process to follow that ensures the order entry is accurate from the start. The order configuration model includes visual guidance, so e-Con CPQ can ensure that the design (in PDF) is uploaded correctly and that dimensions are accurate. e-Con also analyzes quality and offers all the checks and balances needed for a perfect order. An order that would take hours to complete manually can be accomplished in a few minutes, with no errors. 

Customers can review the full status of the sales order in real time. In fact, any customer can configure an order via the e-Con Portal. This way of working is a huge benefit for everyone—without accessing Dynamics NAV, customers are still configuring orders into Dynamics NAV. While they follow the guided process in the web portal, e-Con CPQ is calculating and validating all their choices. As soon as a customer finishes, e-Con creates an order in the BPI Dynamics NAV database. Everything lives in Dynamics NAV, but the customer experiences no complexity, thanks to the flexible portal functionality of e-Con CPQ.
