In case of software solution
for Price and Margin Management SAP is relaying on company called Vendavo through their alliance since 2005.
They offer this solution as reseller of Vendavo. It is officially called SAP
Price and Margin Management by Vendavo (SAP PMM by Vendavo).
What basically Vendavo PMM
is about? It is solution for creation of customer-specific pricing strategies, tools
for optimizing price negotiations, and institutionalize best practices in
value-based selling. There are available so called pricing “playbooks” a
predefined set of structured analytical steps to help find margin leakage. Also
role based dashboards available coming with prebuilt metrics of pricing. Finally
there are visualization tools to understand revenue and profit levers.
Interesting part about Vendavo is that they also uses in-memory technology
which runs on a traditional database (oracle and DB2). Basically they are using
it to support its tool called Vendavo Profit Analyzer. The profit analyzer provides
an in-depth analysis of transaction data to highlight opportunities for revenue
growth. In 2014 both Vendavo and SAP announced broader relationship where HANA
comes into play. The HANA will replace current proprietary in-memory technology
used by Vendavo.
