Problem
Every day, machine shops lose orders before they even have a chance to submit a quote. Speed is paramount throughout the entire customer process, and with a large number of competitors, it is often the first bidder who wins the race.
Quotes had to be manually calculated by people. The process from inquiry to quote to execution was simply too time-consuming.
The entrepreneurs agreed: in an age of digitalization, this process needs to be completed in just a few minutes. However, there was simply no satisfactory solution available for the mechanical engineering industry.
Vision
With this mission, CNC World GmbH was founded to go the extra mile for the industry and shorten the often lengthy quoting processes. A fresh calculation for machine components in two minutes with a simple and personal ordering process and manufacturing in the highest quality.
- ✅ Configure custom CNC parts online
- ✅ Select materials and specifications in real time
- ✅ Receive a ready-to-print quote calculation within two minutes
"This way, we can give all mechanical engineering companies the decisive advantage in the quoting process with fast CNC World calculations over everyone else – namely time!"

Solution
This is exactly where we came in. Together with CNC World GmbH, we developed a tailored software solution that was continuously expanded and adapted to changing requirements and customer requests in a long-term partnership.
The developed system goes far beyond simple quote generation: the entire workflow – from ordering, to the assignment of individual components to partners for manufacturing, to invoicing and dunning – was digitized and automated.

Results
We have been supporting CNC World since its founding in 2020 and take care of the platform's ongoing development and operations. The 2nd version is already in use, built entirely on the EASEWORK platform.
Thanks to this solution, CNC World GmbH was able to not only reduce administrative overhead but also offer its customers a modern and efficient purchasing experience. The fast quote generation and transparent order processing have led to increased customer satisfaction and a stronger market position.
This project demonstrates how custom software solutions can help optimize business processes and secure competitive advantages in the manufacturing industry.
