Tacton Launches Portfolio Performance Intelligence to Help Manufacturers Understand Why Products Win
30.6.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Tacton, a global leader in Configure, Price, Quote (CPQ) solutions for manufacturers of complex products, today announced the launch of Portfolio Performance Intelligence, a new analytics capability designed to help manufacturers understand why products win, where margin is created or lost, and which decisions consistently drive successful business outcomes.
Manufacturers don't lack data. They lack the context needed to understand why products perform the way they do and why customers choose them.
ERP systems show what was sold, CRM platforms track opportunities, and BI tools visualize trends. But when manufacturers try to understand which customer requirements drive demand, which configurations consistently win, or why margins vary across products, regions or segments, the answers are often unclear.
That's because the most important layer of insight–the connection between customer needs, configuration decisions and deal outcomes–only exists within CPQ.
“As product complexity increases and margin pressure continues to grow, manufacturers need more than just historical reporting,” said Jesper Alfreddson, Chief Product Officer at Tacton. “Portfolio Performance Intelligence extends Tacton CPQ with configuration-aware commercial intelligence, helping teams get direct visibility into how product, pricing, and configuration decisions impact business outcomes, so they can act faster and more confidently.”
Built directly into Tacton CPQ, Portfolio Performance Intelligence connects customer requirements, configuration decisions, pricing, and business outcomes to help manufacturers understand what drives revenue, margin, and portfolio performance. By revealing which configurations, features, and pricing decisions consistently lead to successful outcomes, manufacturers can replicate what works across products, regions, and customer segments.
With Portfolio Performance Intelligence, product, sales, and commercial teams can:
- Identify the configuration patterns that consistently drive wins
- Understand which products, features and combinations protect margin
- Reduce unnecessary portfolio complexity and low-performing variants
- Improve sales velocity by identifying where deals slow down or stall
- Improve future pricing, portfolio forecasting and go-to-market decisions
Unlike traditional analytics environments that require manual data preparation and recreation of complex product logic, Portfolio Performance Intelligence is purpose-built for configurable manufacturing and embedded directly within Tacton CPQ, where customer requirements become product, pricing, and configuration decisions.
As manufacturers face increasing pressure to manage complexity, improve efficiency and protect profitability, the ability to connect decisions to outcomes is critical.
Portfolio Performance Intelligence is the latest capability within Tacton Insights & Analytics, Tacton's embedded analytics platform designed to help manufacturers unlock the full value of CPQ data. The platform also includes Behavior & Engagement Analytics, providing visibility into CPQ adoption and usage.
Portfolio Performance Intelligence will be available in July 2026. Learn more here.

Archer® Proves Purpose-Built AI Beats General-Purpose LLMs on Regulatory Change Management: 95% Verified Accuracy, 80x Faster, 92% Lower Cost30.6.2026 17:13:00 EEST | Press release
For enterprises deploying AI in compliance, a wrong date is a missed deadline. The more dangerous failure is a wrong answer the model returns with high confidence, one that flows silently into a compliance calendar and is only discovered after the window has passed. Archer® today released results showing purpose-built AI beats a general-purpose large language model (LLM) on regulatory work, and it’s not close. This head-to-head test compared Archer’s purpose-built, vertical-specific AI and proprietary data sets against a leading general-purpose LLM, on a core compliance task: determining the publication, effective and comment-close dates of regulatory documents across six jurisdictions. General-purpose models are a genuine breakthrough, and this is no referendum on their quality. The question Archer set out to answer is narrower and more practical: what it takes to make a specific, high-stakes determination reliable, fast and affordable at scale. A vertical, domain-focused process, gro

90% of IT Leaders See Gaps in AI Threat Readiness, Lenovo Brings Single Point of Accountability to Cyber Resiliency30.6.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release
As organizations accelerate AI adoption and digital workplace transformation, many are finding that cyber resilience is undermined not by a lack of security tools, but by growing operational complexity and threat sophistication. According to recent research, 90% of IT leaders acknowledge gaps in their ability to defend against AI-driven threats. While security investments continue to grow, many organizations face a different challenge: fragmented accountability. Security operations remain highly distributed and siloed, making it increasingly difficult to coordinate response efforts, maintain end-to-end business continuity, and recover quickly when incidents occur. To help organizations address this challenge, Lenovo is expanding its global Security Services portfolio with a revamped cyber resiliency framework and end-to-end security offerings designed to provide a single point of accountability, help organizations reduce security complexity, cut system downtime by up to 50%, and lower
