PCB Analysis, Costing & Quoting Integration (via Boardera)
Boardera is an AI-powered PCB analysis, costing, and quoting solutions provider, purpose-built for EMS assembly and contract manufacturing companies. Boardera automates the full quote workflow by parsing project packages, scrubbing and sourcing BOM files, calculating labor and material costs, and delivering accurate, configurable quotes in minutes. Through its integration with Cetec ERP, parts are directly synced, eliminating manual lookups between systems. The result is a faster, more connected quoting process from RFQ to order.
PCB Analysis, Costing, and Quoting Software for EMS Companies
Boardera brings AI-powered quoting automation and design-package intelligence to EMS suppliers and contract manufacturing companies, helping teams respond to customer RFQs faster, quote more accurately, and manage the full workflow from incoming package to confirmed order.
Quote Tool
The Quote Tool automates quoting and pricing for EMS assembly. When a customer project package arrives, Boardera reads the design files, scrubs and sources the BOM with real-time pricing and availability, and applies your pricing rules, Excel formulas, and labor configurations automatically. A DFM report is generated to catch manufacturability risks before the quote commits, and a professional branded PDF is produced without manual effort.
For EMS teams running Cetec ERP, parts inventory syncs directly from Cetec into Boardera via integration, keeping component data current and eliminating manual lookups across both systems throughout the process.
Customers report a 10-15% profit increase, 75% improvement in response time, and 50% reduction in quoting costs.

Storefront
The Storefront extends the Quote Tool into a branded customer-facing experience. Your customers upload their design package directly from your website, configure quantities and options, and receive an instant assembly quote driven by the same pricing rules and configurations your team uses internally, with no email back-and-forth. On your end, every submission flows into the Quote Tool, giving your team full visibility into what has been uploaded, how it has been priced, and where each project stands.

DECODE
For EMS teams that need design-package intelligence outside of the full quoting workflow, DECODE reads a PCB design package and returns cost drivers, DFM findings, and BOM analysis as structured reports. Free to try at https://boardera.io. No demo required.
