PriceForecaster™

Includes the MarketForecaster™ capabilities, combined with price forecasts for the top twenty-five products bought or sold by the organization. The forecasting models are aligned to your strategic goals and incorporate additional industry and corporate information considered relevant.

PriceManager™

Includes PriceForecaster™, and extends the solution by applying the same mathematical models and rigor to all products in all channels. Enhanced application and analytic capabilities provide pricers and sales representatives with additional fact-based insight into customer buying patterns, price sensitivity, and helps to identify the highest margin opportunities.

PriceOptimizer™

Represents the next step in the path to value by generating a market clearing optimal price by product, by channel. The result is a reduction in the number and the severity of “fire sales” conducted by manufacturers of perishable products, thereby raising average margin. This also has the benefit of lowering the price volatility, increasing pricing discipline, and creating more opportunity for trading partners to work closely together, leaving behind the traditional “bid and quibble” relationship.

EnterpriseOptimizer™

Supports organizations as they seek to optimize product, customer and channel mix as well as their production plans and prices.  Through this complete solution, organizations are able to optimize their business performance by shaping demand across products, channels and customer segments. This solution helps enhance customer partnerships with an automated approach to finding win-win opportunities to be shared with partners. It also creates a very fast and efficient price quoting process.
