Accurate quoting
Quotes the factory will build, priced right the first time
Every line buildable, every price the manufacturer’s, before the homeowner ever sees the number.
The problem
A quote that looks great at the table and dies at the factory is worse than no quote at all. An option the manufacturer does not make in that size, a bay window whose projection does not match the chart, a price that missed a rule: each one means a re-quote, an awkward call, and a margin that quietly evaporates. Reps learn to pad numbers to be safe, and homeowners learn to shop the padding.
The WindowEdge answer
WindowEdge lets you quote with confidence by building every quote on the manufacturer’s own catalog. Smart Quote carries Milgard, ProVia, and Anlin with their real rules and pricing, and your own rule packs hide options that cannot be built and explain why, so a rep never sells something the factory will reject. ProVia entryLINK quotes import directly.
Design Studio draws bay and bow windows with a solved projection and validates the geometry against manufacturer charts, then prints that pricing on the agreement. Shaped windows, entry doors, and mulled composites get the same treatment and a showroom-style render on the proposal.
The homeowner reviews and signs in their portal, and the sold configuration flows to Project Management for measure and order without re-entry, so what was quoted is what gets ordered.

Questions dealers ask
Which manufacturer catalogs are supported?
Milgard, ProVia, and Anlin today, each with the manufacturer’s real option rules and pricing. ProVia entryLINK quotes can be imported directly into a WindowEdge quote.
What is a rule pack?
A set of rules you author on top of the manufacturer catalog: the options you do not sell, the combinations you have learned to avoid, the margins you want by line. When a rule hides an option, the rep sees why, so the quote stays buildable without guesswork.
How does Design Studio handle bay and bow windows?
It draws the unit with a solved projection, checks the geometry against the manufacturer’s charts, and prices it accordingly. That pricing prints on the agreement, so the number the homeowner signs is the number the factory quotes.
Does the quote carry through to ordering?
Yes. The sold configuration moves with the job into Project Management for measure and order. Nothing is re-keyed between the proposal and the purchase order, which is where most quote-to-order errors come from.
