Calvin has hands-on experience with multiple CPQ platforms \u2014 including&amp;nbsp;PROS, Apttus (now Conga), Salesforce CPQ \/ Revenue Cloud, Zuora CPQ, and Vlocity&amp;nbsp;\u2014 and shares what he wishes he had known about the&amp;nbsp;end-to-end quote-to-cash process&amp;nbsp;earlier in his career. Calvin explains how Slalom supports&amp;nbsp;mid-size to Fortune 500 customers&amp;nbsp;with&amp;nbsp;strategy, process improvement, data management, and CPQ\/Billing transformations, and walks through lessons learned from&amp;nbsp;nearly 10 Salesforce CPQ to RCA\/ARM migration projects. He highlights why&amp;nbsp;RCA is more complex than many teams expect, why&amp;nbsp;data migration is the single most critical success factor, and how to rethink processes when moving to&amp;nbsp;usage-based and consumption billing models. The conversation also explores the growing role of&amp;nbsp;AI, agents, and Agentforce&amp;nbsp;in&amp;nbsp;Revenue Cloud. Calvin shares real use cases where agents help create quotes, support renewals, and provide product and pricing recommendations \u2014 and why he believes AI will&amp;nbsp;augment sales teams rather than replace them, with&amp;nbsp;over 50% of Slalom\u2019s recent projectsnow involving AI and Agentforce. On a lighter note, Calvin also reveals his passion as a&amp;nbsp;coffee connoisseur&amp;nbsp;and aspiring future&amp;nbsp;barista, adding a personal touch to a highly practical, insight-rich episode for anyone serious about&amp;nbsp;CPQ, quote-to-cash, and Salesforce Revenue Cloud migrations. \ud83d\udd17&amp;nbsp;Learn more about Slalom at&amp;nbsp;https:\/\/www.slalom.com\/us\/en&amp;nbsp; \ud83d\udcec&amp;nbsp;Contact Calvin&amp;nbsp;on LinkedIn&amp;nbsp;https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/calvin-chow-3179425\/&amp;nbsp; ","author_name":"CPQ Podcast","author_url":"http:\/\/www.novuscpq.com","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/39412105\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/196575725"}
