Keynote transcript for Salesforce CPQ & Billing (lead: Will Spendlove; presenters: Pascal Yamin, Meredith Schmidt, Graham Thompson) presenting Salesforce’s integrated Quote-to-Cash vision and product capabilities. The talk argues that disconnected quoting, billing and revenue operations impede recurring/revenue models and shows how Salesforce CPQ, Salesforce Billing and Einstein Analytics (all built on the Salesforce platform) address configuration/pricing, approvals, contract lifecycle, order capture, invoicing, revenue recognition and analytics. The session includes Salesforce’s internal success story (1.2M orders processed; ~85% automated; target 95% automation; projected 3.5M orders in ~4 years), a customer case study with Informatica (deployment plans, SKU proliferation problems, move to subscription), a demo-driven salesperson workflow (persona: Clara; customer: Presidio Tech) and notes about partner/community and Service Cloud extensions, AppExchange integrations, and hands-on training offers.
