About Tempus Tools

Tempus Tools is cloud quoting and estimating software for laser cutting, sheet metal, job shops, machine shops and fabrication teams. Its pricing pages cover drawing cleanup, nesting, tube cutting, secondary processes and a customer Web Store. It is a particularly good fit when folding, welding or powder coating belongs in the same rules-based quote23.

Pick Tempus Tools if

  • Laser, sheet metal or fabrication work is the center of your quoting, including tube and secondary processes.
  • You want a customer Web Store for instant quote-to-order work and Stripe payments.
  • Your shop can fit within Tempus's per-user model and, on Starter, 20 jobs per month.

Pick QuotedPart if

  • You want one published price for the whole shop, with unlimited users and quotes.
  • The PDF print matters as much as the STEP model, or you need drawing-only quotes.
  • You run JobBOSS² or JobBOSS, or quote ITAR parts that should be encrypted before they leave your browser.

What QuotedPart does

  • RFQs by email forwarding, your own RFQ page, or drag and drop
  • PDF drawings read for part number, revision, material, finish, tolerances, threads and notes
  • STEP and IGES models measured in your browser: stock, holes, pockets, setups, turned features, sheet thickness and bends
  • A routing on your own work centers and rates, with setup and run minutes for every operation, all editable
  • Every quantity break priced, with cost, margin and lead time
  • A quote page with your logo where the buyer picks a quantity and accepts with a PO, or a PDF
  • Won quotes become orders; actual hours show where each work center runs over or under; similar parts you quoted before show up next to the new one

About the team and the company

Quoting software for bigger shops is sold through demos, setup fees and multi-year contracts. We think a small shop should be able to see the price, run a part it has already quoted, and decide in an afternoon.

If a quote comes out wrong, email me the part. We'll look at it with you and fix the estimate.
