Ekotrope’s Scenario Modeling Solution for Product Manufacturers
As a building product manufacturer, it can be challenging to demonstrate the unique value of your products. Builders are constantly being pitched various solutions—how can you break through the crowd and provide clear data as proof of your innovative capabilities and value?
Ekotrope’s Scenario Modeling tool is the answer— increasing conversion rates for builders that you work with. Learn more about this innovative tool and how you can leverage Ekotrope as a valuable builder data solution to benefit you and your clients.
What Is Scenario Modeling from Ekotrope?
Ekotrope’s Scenario Modeling is a premium add-on to our industry-leading RATER software. With access to Scenario Modeling, Building Product Manufacturers can, with a given builder’s permission, glean insights from that builder’s entire portfolio, and perform analyses to determine which of your products pose opportunities for home design improvements that improve costs and use less energy.
Ekotrope makes sure you can customize your research with the ability to choose which aspects of these homes to analyze for improvement, how their performance should be evaluated, and more. From there, the Ekotrope team will assemble a comprehensive report detailing the outcome of each design improvement for you to use as a sales tool, tailored to the practices and needs of every builder you work with.
Benefits of Scenario Modeling with Ekotrope
Provide Real Value For Your Partners
By supplying your partners and prospects with informed analyses of their own work, you’ll be able to provide real value and demonstrate your commitment to supporting them as they achieve their goals, whether they are motivated to increase conversion rates or improve their understanding of the cost/benefit exchange of using one product versus another.
Nimble Analyses
Ekotrope’s Scenario Modeling tool is efficient, allowing you to analyze up to 20 design changes on 1,000 energy models within a few minutes. This enables you to respond in real-time to builder questions, and help your partners stay up-to-date in the ever-changing energy landscape.
Save Money and Time
Ekotrope’s tools, including Scenario Modeling, are smart. The Scenario Modeling tool’s interface is like a sophisticated calculator, so you can plug in all relevant information and receive the answers you need delivered directly to your email. Make a mistake? You don’t need to spend hours re-calculating your answer, or beat yourself up for wasted time—you can just re-enter your data into the tool and recalculate.
This also makes it easy to examine energy performance tradeoffs, maximize incentive capture, and value engineer your project. For example, right now the industry is buzzing about the new 45L extension that’s been proposed in the budget reconciliation bill. Normally, determining what a builder needs to implement in order to ensure their projects pass the new guidelines would take hours of manual analysis that yields results that need to be taken with a grain of salt. With Scenario Modeling, you can easily see exactly how your product will impact a given builder’s 45L performance and share that customized impact report directly with the client.
This ability to quickly identify gaps and opportunities in a builder’s plans and then offer your product as a clear solution transforms the sales process, cutting down on conversion time and increasing stickiness.
