Costimator software to 1,600th customer

West Springfield, Massachusetts -  MTI Systems officials announce the sale of their 1,600th Costimator cost estimating and quoting software system - another milestone moment for the West Springfield, Massachusetts, software development company.

Costimator, first developed in 1982, was originally designed to help manufacturing engineers with their process planning requirements, helping process planners who were struggling to push more parts, faster and more efficiently, through their production department. Founder Thomas Charkiewicz soon had the vision to expand the software – adding cost estimating and quoting functionality to the already popular software program.

“In the early 80’s, I found process planning issues that could be solved through the use of software,” reports Charkiewicz, president of MTI Systems. “Not long after, our company created even more value by creating software that simultaneously helped cost estimators accurately estimate the time and cost to manufacture parts and assemblies.”

“Continuing to develop better software, by adding new features and more manufacturing data to remain current with today’s manufacturing requirements, helps our cost estimating software product remain state-of-the art,” concludes Charkiewicz. “We are proud to acquire our 1,600th customer.”
