SAP Product Lifecycle Costing

Drive product profitability – with SAP Product Lifecycle Costing

Keep product costs and quotations in line with strategic targets – using SAP Product Lifecycle Costing. The software helps secure future product margins in the early stages, when the design is evolving and master data is incomplete. Gain visibility across teams, proactively manage costs, and support new product innovations as well as customer-specific engineered products.

Why SAP Product Lifecycle Costing?

Because the software offers world-class tools for early product engineering, quotation, and lifecycle costing – and can ultimately help you increase profitability. Built on the SAP HANA in-memory platform, SAP Product Lifecycle Costing delivers a real-time calculation engine, Excel-like configuration, and a modern, role-based user interface.

  • Use flexible, hierarchical product-costing structures, and natively
    integrate with SAP ERP and SAP PLM
  • Leverage an open, standards-based API to integrate with other
    applications
  • Run what-if scenarios and analytics to explore alternative product
    structures, cost rates, and quantities
  • Increase visibility across teams – from product designers and
    manufacturers to executives
  • Reduce product design and development costs, shorten the quotation
    cycle, and speed time to market
  • Safeguard your data with robust application security, locking, and
    versioning
