Built for the decisions that cost the most
Evaluate supplier proposals.Negotiate on evidence.
Know what you are really paying. See how suppliers in the category build their margin, what comparable companies pay and which way pricing is heading, before you invite anyone to pitch.
Move the number. Arrive with the benchmarks, the cost drivers and the levers that shift them, so the discount is agreed on evidence rather than asked for as a favour.
Defend the decision afterwards. Selection criteria, evaluation scores and contract terms are set out for you, so the award stands up to finance, legal and anyone who queries it a year later.
