Building customer trust into every quote

‍

At GDI Ainsworth, getting a quote to a customer can involve controls, hydronics, and electrical teams working together. Each department brings its own expertise. Shared access to the existing equipment information helps them put that expertise to work on the same bid—and has helped Ainsworth deliver quotes faster and secure more approvals.

The process begins on site. Using XOi, Ainsworth can gather the information it needs during a single visit and make it available across departments. Colleagues have one place to see changes and collaborate, reducing the need for additional site visits. The information collected in the field becomes something the broader team can use to move the work forward.

That collaboration continues when the quote reaches the customer. Ainsworth supplies an XOi report with every quote recommendation, putting visual information alongside the proposed work. The customer can see the supporting details and discuss the recommendation with Ainsworth, giving both sides a shared basis for the conversation.
