How MaXXflow pricing works
MaXXflow is scoped to your operation, so your investment reflects the workflows, people and locations you bring into it. Here's what shapes the price, and how you get one.
There's no price list because there's no standard setup
There's no published price list for MaXXflow, because there's no standard setup to put a price on. Each implementation is configured around the workflows and roles in your scope. MaXXflow pricing is determined by the software, users, operating scope and implementation services your business needs.
That's also why the first step is a conversation rather than a checkout. A discovery session looks at how you work today and where better control would pay off first, and your proposal is built from that.
Seven things shape your investment
The commercial scope considers:
- The workflows you start with. Planning, purchasing, inventory, production, or several of them. Most businesses begin with the one workflow that will make the biggest difference and add more once it's working.
- Your users and their roles. How many people will use MaXXflow, and what each needs to see and do. Access is set by role, so a buyer, a production lead and a manager each get what their job requires.
- Your locations. The number of sites, warehouses and stock locations MaXXflow needs to cover.
- Implementation and data preparation. Mapping your process, preparing items, BOMs, stock, suppliers and open orders, configuring workflows and testing them. The condition of your data affects how much work this is.
- Integrations and configuration. Which existing systems MaXXflow needs to work with in the first phase, such as your finance system, and any custom configuration or development.
- Training and support. Role-based training for your team, and the support you need.
- MaXXlink. Whether MaXXlink is part of your setup, if your BOMs start in CAD or PDM.
Integration needs are assessed individually. You don't have to connect every existing system before MaXXflow can be useful.
Start with one workflow, then extend
You don't have to take on everything at once. A first phase is sized to one high-value workflow, such as BOM-driven purchasing or job readiness, so it's achievable and solves a real problem early. Once it's stable, you can extend into further workflows, barcode scanning, dashboards or AI-assisted planning.
A focused first phase is usually more manageable than trying to transform every process at once.
Your number comes from discovery, mapping and a proposal
- A discovery session. We look at how demand, BOMs, purchasing, inventory and production work in your business today. See What happens when you get in touch.
- Workflow mapping. Together we agree the priority and the scope of a first phase. See Mapping your process.
- A proposal. It confirms your users, locations, workflows, integrations, implementation, training and support, alongside an implementation plan covering responsibilities, milestones, testing and go-live.
Timing depends on the agreed scope and how ready your data is, so your proposal is also the point where you get a realistic view of how long the first phase will take.
Weigh the price against what disconnected planning already costs
The useful comparison isn't the software price on its own. It's the price against what disconnected planning already costs you: time spent updating spreadsheets and chasing status, shortages that stop production, urgent orders and expedited freight, excess or slow-moving stock, rework from BOM errors, and late deliveries.
Those costs are already in the business, even if they never appear on one line of the accounts. A spreadsheet can look free and still carry a high hidden cost in manual effort, errors and delays.
You don't need every problem to disappear for MaXXflow to pay back. Reducing the most frequent and expensive ones is usually what makes the case. Building the business case shows how to put a number on your own, and the planning cost check lets you run the figures.
A focused platform, not an ERP project
MaXXflow concentrates on the manufacturing and supply-chain planning layer: demand, BOMs, material requirements, stock, suppliers, purchasing, work orders, production readiness and scheduling. It's a practical operating platform rather than a full enterprise ERP replacement.
For some businesses, that makes it a more manageable starting point than a full ERP transformation, something many manufacturers are deterred from by the cost, complexity and lengthy implementation. For others, it works alongside the systems they already have. See MRP vs ERP.
Questions about pricing
How much does MaXXflow cost?
It depends on the workflows, users, locations, implementation, integrations, training and support your business needs, and on any related MaXXlink requirements. A discovery session lets us understand the problem and prepare a proposal aligned with the recommended implementation approach.
Do we have to buy everything at once?
No. Most implementations start with one high-value workflow and extend once it's stable.
