The Tacton Connected Suite

Connect how complex products are defined, sold and delivered

CPQ, Configuration Lifecycle Management, and Configured Order Fulfillment run as one product configuration management software to remove the silos that keep what's sold, engineered, and built out of sync.

Digital Thread

One digital thread from definition through delivery

Your margin is at risk every time product rules, customer requirements, and manufacturing information are disconnected, re-entered, or re-interpreted at each lifecycle stage. The Tacton Connected Suite creates a manufacturing digital thread across the product configuration lifecycle. Shared configuration knowledge keeps teams aligned around consistent logic to reduce errors, rework, delays, and margin erosion.

The Cost of Disconnected Systems

Complexity is growing. Manufacturers are still managing it in silos.

67 %

of manufacturers say their products are very or extremely complex

7 %

successfully define configuration rules once and reuse them across lifecycle systems

62 %

ONE CONNECTED SUITE

Define, sell, and deliver highly configurable products

Each Tacton product solves a distinct challenge. Together, they provide end-to-end product configuration management alongside your current system architecture and product lifecycle management tools.

Configure Price Quote (CPQ)

Sell it Right with Tacton Configure, Price, Quote software

CPQ software built for configure-to-order and engineer-to-order products helps Sales teams, partners, and buyers configure complex products accurately, price consistently, and quote faster. Tacton CPQ uses engineering-approved configuration logic to keep every recommendation grounded in what is valid and possible. 

Configuration Lifecycle Management (CLM)

Define it Right with Configuration Lifecycle Management

Give Engineering a governed way to define, manage, and release the structures, rules, and constraints behind highly configurable products. Once approved, that configuration knowledge can be reused across sales and manufacturing with less duplicate modeling and manual synchronization.  

Configured Order Fulfillment (COF)

Deliver It Right with Configured Order Fulfillment 

Turn accepted configurations into the factory-specific mBOMs, routings, documentation, and information required by ERP and MES. Reduce the manual translation between order and production, while preserving customer and engineering intent. 

WHY THE CONNECTED SUITE

Control complexity across the product configuration lifecycle

Reuse configuration knowledge

Reuse configuration knowledge

Reduce duplicate modeling by connecting product rules, structures, attributes, and relationships across Engineering, Sales, and Manufacturing.

Maintain end-to-end accuracy

Maintain end-to-end accuracy

Tacton’s constraint-based intelligence manages the dependencies behind highly configurable products and keeps configurations valid as they move downstream.

Move changes across functions faster

Move changes across functions faster

Connect approved engineering changes (ECOs) with the commercial and manufacturing processes that depend on them, with less manual coordination.

Protect margins through delivery

Protect margins through delivery

Reduce the configuration errors, order corrections, rework, and delays that cost your bottom line between quote and production.

Extend configuration beyond the quote

Extend configuration beyond the quote

Keep customer requirements fully traceable as the configured product moves into engineering and manufacturing preparation.

Generative AI that understands your product configuration

Tacton AI

Generative AI that understands your product configuration

Generative AI can make complex product knowledge faster and easier to access. But in manufacturing, speed only matters when the answer is technically accurate and actionable. Tacton combines generative AI with constraint-based configuration intelligence, anchoring recommendations and decisions in the rules that determine what can actually be sold and built. Generative AI gets you close. Configuration truth gets it right.

INTEGRATIONS

Extend ERP, PLM, and MES with configuration intelligence

The Connected Suite works alongside the systems that already manage your product data, customer relationships, planning, and production. Connect configuration knowledge across CRM, CAD, PDM, PLM, ERP, and MES so each system receives the accurate, context-specific information that it needs without having to manage product configuration complexity on its own.

FAQs

The Tacton Connected Suite brings CPQ, Configuration Lifecycle Management, and Configured Order Fulfillment together to connect how highly configurable products are defined, sold, and prepared for production.  It creates a digital thread across Engineering, Sales, and Manufacturing through one connected source of configuration truth, ensuring BOM alignment and accuracy throughout the lifecycle. 
Connected product configuration means that the configuration knowledge used by Engineering, Sales, and Manufacturing remains connected across the product lifecycle.  Instead of each function independently recreating product rules and structures, teams can use connected configuration knowledge to reduce duplication, configuration drift, and manual translation. 
Yes. Each product solves distinct challenges within Sales, Engineering, or Manufacturing.  Connecting them extends that value across functions by keeping customer requirements, engineering knowledge, and manufacturing outputs aligned from definition through delivery. 
No. Tacton complements the systems manufacturers already use for product data, customer management, planning, and production execution.  The Connected Suite provides the configuration intelligence required to connect highly configurable products across those systems. Your current systems are still the masters of your data, but Tacton carries the logic across them. 
Configuration Lifecycle Management governs engineering structures, rules, constraints, and releases. When connected with CPQ and Configured Order Fulfillment, approved configuration changes can move into commercial and manufacturing processes with less duplicate modeling and manual synchronization. 
The Connected Suite helps reduce the configuration errors, manual handoffs, order corrections, rework, and delays that can erode margin between quote and delivery.  It also gives teams greater confidence that customer requirements, engineering intent, and manufacturing preparation remain connected. 
The Connected Suite is designed for manufacturers of highly configurable products where each customer order may involve complex product rules, technical constraints, pricing, engineering structures, and factory-specific manufacturing requirements.
