Market analysis for purchasing
Price Claim Defense
Our team of consultants helps you to check the justification of price increase demands from producers and suppliers. We prepare a comprehensive market analysis for your products so that you can make informed decisions.
Raw material price analysis
We analyze current commodity prices and trends to verify price increases claimed by suppliers. Our experts look at historical data, market developments and external factors to determine the real price increase for raw materials and enable you to make informed decisions during negotiations.
Determination of the raw material content in the product
Our team determines the raw material content in the product to understand the impact of raw material price changes on total cost. Through detailed product costing, we determine the share of all factors, including manufacturing, overhead and profit. This allows us to estimate which price changes are justified.
Formulation of a recommendation for action
Based on our analyses, we create an individual recommendation for action for your situation. Our suggestions vary depending on the objective - enforce or fend off a price increase. We provide arguments and supporting materials for successful negotiations and prepare you for supplier discussions in order to achieve prices in line with the market and make informed decisions.

Price increase enforcement
We support you in successfully implementing necessary price increases. Our market-driven average price defines the scope for negotiation and helps you to communicate price adjustments to your customers in a transparent and comprehensible way.
Even if you have refrained from price increases so far, we support you in successfully implementing your price adjustments. Our approach is based on a sound analysis that provides you with a clear assessment and recommendation for action.
