Through multiple analyses right out of the box, as well as an extensive data warehouse and reporting system, users gain valuable insights into pricing, be it nationally or by sales region, by channel or many other dimensions. This helps in assessing the millions of price points that many suppliers have to juggle with every year.

Just imagine a company selling 2000 products to 2000 clients per country, across 5 countries. If the company has 5 discounts on average that means they need to oversee 100 million discounts each year. Handling this manually is bound to lead to too many discounts in a number of cases and thus a lower net price after all discounts. By using a price management software application like Stratinis Pricing Suite, companies can identify where discounts are given, by segment, customer type, sales force, organisation, country or a number of other attributes. Knowing where to focus and then spreading this information to the right sales people will enable companies in tightening discounts and more frequently only give what is required. The result is an improvement in net prices of 1-3%, or a corresponding 8-24% improvement in operating profits.

Employing the strong Account Action Planner and Deal Manager modules, companies can arm their account managers with strong information before and after negotiations, enabling them to better manage prices.
