Pricing & Commercial Excellence

Even today, many companies calculate prices based on simple cost calculations that, while they might generate minimum margins, are little fit to the firm’s overall market strategy nor do they exploit product or customer value. Consequently, the potential in price management is immense! In addition to conceptual improvements, data and tool-based advancements related to artificial intelligence are also drivers of profitability. Our experience shows that typically profits can usually be increased between two and five percentage points.

Our pricing excellence framework is an integratedapproach that analyzes and further develops your pricing with regard to the following  aspects:

• Price strategy: How are products and services positioned in the market? What are relevant market segments and what willingness to pay exists in these segments? How to build and run a  commercial organization?
• Price setting: What are basic pricing guidelines and logic?
• Price realization: How to best enforce our prices and achieve our goals by discounts and bonusespolicies? How to incentivize sales teams?
• Price controlling: What are adequate KPIs for sustainable reporting?
