64% believe their company has lost jobs because of overestimating what their costs would be to make a part during the quoting process.
93% believe their company has lost money on a job because the actual cost of manufacturing the part was more than it had been estimated to be.
93% have added a "Fudge Factor" to their quotes because they were unsure of its accuracy.
