Companies that take a thoughtful, careful, and thorough approach to procurement activities tend to end up with better pricing outcomes and better, more stable transactions. The topic will present you with frameworks for defining what constitutes optimum value from a pricing strategy, identify techniques for creating a competitive pricing environment, and identify potentially useful pricing structures and mechanisms and the incentives they create.
