Abstract:
A method, system, and program product for generating a price quote to demanufacture a lot of electronic equipment is disclosed. Representative equipment groups are defined which include default values, based upon knowledge and experience, and study values, based upon dismantle studies. When a quote is requested to demanufacture a given lot of equipment, the equipment in the lot is categorized into representative equipment groups. As profit/loss is calculated for each equipment group, if study values are available, these are used, otherwise default values are used. Pricing contingency and profit may further be calculated to generate the price quote.
