What Configura does
Configura is a Sweden-based, privately held SaaS provider of parametric space-planning and product-configuration software, founded in 1990 and headquartered in Linköping. The company serves three primary verticals — commercial interiors, kitchen and bath, and material handling — by enabling manufacturers, dealers, designers, and system integrators to design, specify, price, and quote complex spaces and product systems in 2D and 3D. Its flagship CET platform is built on a proprietary Parametric Graphical Configuration (PGC) engine that enforces valid product combinations, automatically generates bills of materials and technical documentation, and provides real-time pricing tied to manufacturer content.
The product portfolio includes industry-specific CET variants (Commercial Interiors, Kitchen and Bath, Material Handling, and Essentials for Material Handling) plus adjacent tools such as Spec, Aline, Workspace, and Stage for specification, quoting, and web-based configuration. Supporting modules include CollabPro for real-time collaboration, Twinmotion integration for photorealistic rendering, an Analytics module for usage-based insights, and the MyConfigura Marketplace where 300+ manufacturers distribute CET Extensions. Configura earns revenue primarily through annual per-seat subscriptions ($1,420–$2,640 depending on product), supplemented by marketplace commissions, training services via Configura Academy, and professional services through a global partner network of system integrators and service partners.
The company operates from offices in Sweden, the United States (Grand Rapids, MI and Cincinnati, OH), Malaysia, Japan, and Germany, with a North American headquarters in Grand Rapids. It reports approximately 275 employees worldwide and disclosed annual sales exceeding $30 million USD in March 2026. Named customers include major OEMs such as Steelcase, MillerKnoll, Haworth, Dematic, Linde, Nobia, and Kvik. Configura acquired ProjectMatrix in October 2021 to expand North American pricing and specification capabilities, and in February 2025 entered a strategic partnership with BEUMER Group to integrate pallet conveyor systems into CET Material Handling. Leadership transitioned in 2025–2026 with the appointment of a first-ever VP of Marketing, a Head of Sales for North America, and a new CEO, Steven Jenkins.

Emerging players
- PROKITCHEN: PROKITCHEN provides kitchen and bath design, pricing, and ordering software for kitchen dealers, directly competing with CET Kitchen & Bath in the same North American residential dealer channel.
- Expivi: Expivi offers a 3D/AR product configurator for manufacturers and e-commerce, addressing a similar use case to Configura's Stage web configurator extension, though focused more on consumer-facing e-commerce than B2B specification workflows.

Others
- Canto (product configuration): Canto and similar PIM/DAM platforms serve as complementary technology for manufacturers managing the product catalogs and configurator content that flow into Configura's CI Library, with partial overlap in the manufacturer content ecosystem.
