Purchasing with evidence
Purchasing takes more than gut instinct
When prices, competitors and ranges change constantly, assessing whether a supplier agreement, category or product area is competitive becomes difficult. Prisvogter brings market data together so purchasing teams can work from documented evidence.
Supplier discussions
What you can use in negotiations
- What competitors charge for the same product
- How many competitors match the product
- Whether the product is priced high or low in the market
- How price position changes over time
This provides a stronger starting point for supplier discussions.
Compare the pricing basis
From supplier price to market price
A supplier price cannot be assessed in isolation. Market selling prices show whether there is realistic room for gross margin and where price levels need attention.
Compare market prices
See selling prices and competition to put the offer in market context.
Purchasing potential
Assess gross margins, negotiations and whether the product warrants your time and capital.
Assess the market in context
See where products stand in the market
A supplier price cannot be assessed in isolation. Market selling prices show whether there is scope for an attractive gross margin and whether the product is relevant to your range.
01
Compare with the market
See price levels across the market before assessing a supplier agreement or new product.
02
Assess margin potential
If competitors sell at low prices, the purchase price may be hard to justify. Higher market prices may indicate better potential.
03
Find products needing attention
Use data to prioritise the product groups where purchasing should focus its time and resources first.
