 Our software is designed to implement design-to-coststrategies during the product stage rather than as a constraint to satisfy at theend of a design, according to Frank Azzolino, President and CEO of aPriori
aPriori allows users to avoid or reduce the inevitable lengthy post-product launchcost reduction exercises and costly changes late in the development process. Discrete part manufacturing companies are experiencing a demanding and difficultcombination of prices pressure from customers, rising costs both internally and fromvendors, international competition, and income growth pressure from investors. Costof Goods Sold (COGS) has become an increasingly important metric as the largestexpense item on the income statement; typically 70 to 90% of revenue.
Azzolino recommends that discrete manufacturers make cost a true design parameter. Â Always knowing product costs prevents surprises, missed cost targets, and rework,schedule delays, and missed market window.Â
Based in Concord, MA, aPriori (www.apriori.com) is the technology leader providinginnovative cost management solutions to the discrete manufacturing industry. aPrioriÂ's Cost Management Software Platform enables manufacturers to betterunderstand product cost decisions early and throughout the product lifecycle. aPrioriÂ's Cost Management Platform empowers manufacturers to lower cost-of-goodssold (COGS), provides real-time visibility to  cost-critical decision information,and builds critical cost knowledge to go on the business  offensive. aPrioriÂ'spatent-protected cost management platform allows companies to assess, control, andreduce cost of goods sold by whole percentages.
