Wire harness manufacturers that quote faster and win more business
“I could probably do five times as many quotes as we're doing now without needing to hire additional people.”
We were quoting on average a week to week-and-a-half turnaround on an average size package. It's honestly two to three days using Cableteque.
“On one quote alone, Cableteque saved me about 18 hours of work.”
I feel more confident in the pricing because I can see the exact number. Customers have told us our pricing is more competitive.
“What we like best about Cableteque is their outstanding commitment to customer success, training, and continuous learning.”
We see significant potential for improving quoting efficiency, reducing variability in labor estimates, and establishing a more repeatable, data-driven approach to costing.
“Cableteque has transformed the way we at Nortech approach the quoting process.”
The software’s ability to quickly process drawings, identify material requirements, and enable faster quote development has been a major advantage for our team. … Overall, their support model is among the best I’ve experienced in my career.
“We’ve almost doubled our wire harness production, and I’m still managing with what I have.”
Before Cableteque, I spent hours a week just doing quoting. Now I can get through and get the stuff done that I need done with just a little bit each day.
“It's not uncommon to do a quote on the same day that we receive it.”
We used to turn down a lot of RFQs. Now we just turn those in one to two days, and we can compete in those types of RFQs. More swings at the plate potentially get you more base hits.
“Quotes that used to take weeks are now done in days, and we’ve already won new business because we can respond faster.”
Before Cableteque, a normal quote took at least five days, and when things got busy, the queue could mean waiting a month just for a quote. Now, we’ve cut that time in half, and the backlog is gone.
“Auto conversion of drawings to API fillable BOM that populates prices and options and labor costing.”
Quotes taking too long do not get bid successfully and speeding up the process
“This is a transformation in how we collaborate with customers.”
Together, we're unlocking new levels of responsiveness and transparency that align with the pace of today's innovation.

Frequently asked questions
What does Cableteque do?
Cableteque is software for wire harness and cable assembly manufacturers. It reads the customer's RFQ package, builds the BOM and wire list, prices every part at your contract rates, fills your labor template and produces a customer-ready quote. More than 100 manufacturers and 500+ users process over 100,000 quotes a year through Cableteque.
Does Cableteque only do quoting?
No. Cableteque Quote is the core of the platform, and Cableteque also includes RFQ Intake, which finds every file in a customer's RFQ package and flags what's missing, and Manufacturing Engineering, which turns winning quotes into production-ready data.
Who is Cableteque for?
Wire harness and cable assembly manufacturers, from growing job shops to large multi-site operations, including defense and aerospace suppliers. Estimators, engineers and buyers use it to quote more work, more accurately, without adding headcount.
How is Cableteque different from Excel, an ERP or a generic quoting tool?
Excel and ERPs don't read drawings, and generic quoting tools are built for PCBA or machined parts. Cableteque is purpose-built for wire harnesses: Cableteque AI reads the full quote package, the Cableteque Component Library knows what every part mates with and needs, and your own labor template is filled automatically. Your ERP stays your system of record. Read the wire harness quoting software buyer's guide.
How much faster is quoting with Cableteque?
Customers cut quote turnaround by about 70%, from 1–3 weeks down to 1–3 days, and handle up to 5x more RFQs with the same team.
How much does Cableteque cost?
Cableteque is a monthly subscription, with annual plans available at a discount. Pricing is based on how many assemblies you quote, how complex they are (measured in BOM lines), and any add-ons. Contact us for a quote.
Is Cableteque secure enough for defense work?
Yes. Cableteque is listed on the FedRAMP Marketplace as FedRAMP Ready (legacy designation), is undergoing FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency, and is ITAR registered. Defense programs run on CabletequeGov on AWS GovCloud, with U.S.-only data residency and access limited to U.S. persons. No customer data is used to train or fine-tune LLMs. See our Security page.
