How Negotiable Is Your IT Supplier?

Pricing and terms in the IT spend category are notoriously inconsistent. Since 2003 NPI has been helping enterprises level the playing field by providing price benchmark analysis and negotiation intel that helps them cut cost and get world class IT purchase outcomes.

 

NPI’s data and experience are reflected in NPI Supplier Dynamics™, a free planning tool for Coupa customers that provides insight into negotiability for over 100 of the top enterprise IT suppliers.

Identify the IT Purchases That Need Extra Effort

Lower scores mean there is less risk of overpayment because the supplier is consistent or inflexible, or because there isn’t much SKU complexity. Higher scores mean the risk of overpayment is considerable because the supplier’s pricing is very inconsistent across peer purchases, or because SKU complexity is engineered to drive over-buying.

 

For example, if your upcoming purchase gets a score of 4 on Price Variability, NPI’s data shows that you will pay more than you need to if you don’t give it special attention.

NPI Supplier Dynamics provides ratings for over 100 of the top enterprise IT suppliers, and spans a variety of IT subcategories - software, SaaS/IaaS/PaaS, cloud, hardware, managed services, telco, collaboration, IT professional services rate cards and more. Here are just a few examples:
