Kalks streamlines quotation preparation for manufacturing companies involved in CNC machining, turning, milling, welding, laser cutting, and other production processes. By replacing manual calculations with automated workflows, it significantly reduces quotation time while improving pricing accuracy.
The module integrates directly with Dolibarr ERP products and inventory, allowing automatic retrieval of material prices, purchased components, and other item costs. This ensures that every quotation is based on the latest available pricing information without duplicate data entry.
Flexible pricing rules allow users to define profit margins, minimum order quantities (MOQ), material waste, production coefficients, and other business-specific parameters. Every quotation can be customized while maintaining consistent pricing policies across the organization.
Kalks is closely connected with workstations and manufacturing operations. Machine rates, processing times, labor costs, and production resources are automatically included in the calculation, providing realistic manufacturing costs based on actual production capacity.
In addition to machining operations, the module supports secondary processes such as heat treatment, coating, painting, anodizing, packaging, and transportation. Once completed, the calculation can be converted into a professional Dolibarr quotation with complete cost transparency and accurate pricing.
