The preceding note, the case for the management of the prices, treaties to explain the insufficiency of the possibilities improved of list of the prices and discount coming from the traditional systems from in back-office from planning (ERP) and the accountancy of entrepreneurial resource.

Being given the possible growth of the solutions of evaluation require, and the fact that a hearth increased on the management of change often carries out to improve of the results, much of services companies professionals started to concentrate on the management of the prices. For example, Deloitte consulting, envisaging a suitable need, relatively recently launched the center of excellence of evaluation, which is based over several years of experiment providing of the projects of management of the prices and benefit. For this purpose, the practice developed a detailed methodology of execution of management of the prices; tools created to rationalize achievements; and included many vertical teams of industry on other side of the company (of the sectors such as the consumables of the motor vehicles, with the detail, finance departments, the manufacture of process, and advanced technology industries/electronic).

According to the problem of evaluation the company tries to solve, there could be various categories of process and software of evaluation, like:

  * execution of the prices
  * application of the prices
  * visibility of the prices
  * optimization of the prices
  * management of evaluation

For example, according to the search for Amr, the category of execution of the prices is conceived to order (or completely edge) the selling franc-tireur of the practices, and to obtain the perspicacity and the feedback of the field. It is the process employed to capture the evaluation, generally in the tables and of the assessments, and then distributes this information as an evaluation predetermined to the salesmen, for the structuring support of business. In other words, the execution of the prices is the process by which prices are provided and communicated to the salesmen and to the purchasers, while the application of the prices implies the adequacy of the negotiation of business of process and tools (such as the management of course of operation) and of conformity of support of contract. Another relative limit on the side of execution is visibility of the prices: once the users fix a better price and include/understand how it carries out, they want to put this in the action and to impose it in the components going down from the sequence of values. This aspect of execution and application of the evaluation was embraced in particular by the chemical producers.

The optimization of the prices is the process by which the best prices are determined, based on variables on side of the request and multiple factors of the market. Some of these factors are quantifiable (like the situation of inventory) and the others are not (like movements or the seasonal character of competitor), which make with models of evaluation of building a difficult process. Optimization looks at the profit-critical variables of the businesses, and advises management on the way in which these variables can be changed to carry out a greater total profitability.

In each businesses, much of variables orders or profitability of impact. Some variables are obvious (like selling prices), whereas others are not also obvious (for example, withdrawal period to productive installations). Since these variables are correlated, the best solution considers the variables in a holistic sight of the businesses, so that with-top-adjustment of some variables does not carry out others negatively. As in the industry of aairline, the best solutions of the prices supervise the situation in real-time, to obtain the necessary information to make fast decisions. These applications are typically a whole of equations and parameters, and are employed to decide what is (or is not) a price acceptable, given the customer and the circumstances.



This comes in handy typically when the product is precipitated at the market (as in the advanced technology industry, with its durations increasingly shorter of product; or in detail, where the seasonal character changes the evaluation). If the customers are very price-sensitive, then a strategy of optimization can be completely effective, and will support the arrangement improved of forecasts and price. In detail and the advanced technology industries in particular, this can make it possible companies of user to pursue a strategy of proactive management of request, by binding the request and by evaluating it more narrowly. However, the advance of price the consumer with consumption rather easy, is compared with the serious challenge of the data of compilation through production lines, or to detect multiple channels and a various user base.

Thus, the approaches of supplier vary both in the types of information which they consider, and in the way in which they employ this information. There are suppliers who concentrate on the high fixed-cost and capital-intensive industries (chemicals, paper, and industries metallurgical, for example), and which concentrates on variables of use and constraint of capital such as changes of product and cuts of maintenance. There are also suppliers who concentrate on allowing the detail to make more with variables of sale such that the mixture of product, it to discount and promotions, exits seasonal, and so on. Specifically, a retailer could have to include/understand the impact of the falls; or a company of the goods packed by consumer (CPG) typically could have to include/understand the impact of the promotion and the introduction of product on request, in order to optimize benefit.

In conclusion, the management of evaluation provides logic to help with negotiations of evaluation, whenever prices are negotiated rather than placed. This provides an occasion to rather lead margins based on information in real-time by the field than on conjectures.

But to opacify the kingdom further from the evaluation, a system of evaluation (B2B) of company to company complete raises the questions of level with large scales strategic, tactical, and of execution which should be answere thereafter. The strategic questions, or of industry of price level, should help of the directors to include/understand how the offer, the request, the costs, payments, and other factors with elevated level act one on the other to affect total prices. The companies which excel on this level often avoid the pressure with the useless on prices, and emergent fall as chiefs of chiefs of the prices of industry and market share.

The tactical questions, or of gone product/of strategy of level, require to determine the handsome price of the right customer of a product or a service, relative with competition. With the knowledge in the way in which the customers perceive all the market offers, and of which the product and the attributes of service decisions of purchase lead, the companies can place the obvious list prices which reflect exactly competitivenesses and the weaknesses of their offer.

Execution, or the questions of level of transaction, described in the part one of this series, aim at deciding the exact price of each transaction, starting with the current price, and the termination while determining which factors of water fall of the prices apply. For the majority of the companies, determining how to treat these questions by systems of invoicing and payment, and how to carry out tasks of management of order referred to that, is detailed the most, long, system-intensive tries implied by gaining an advantage of the prices.
