We\u2019re back from the Capital of Cars, Europe\u2019s manufacturing heartland, Stuttgart, where we had the pleasure of joining the Copperberg team for its Manufacturing Pricing Excellence Forum. If you missed the event, don\u2019t worry, we\u2019ve rounded up the key themes for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Integration following a merger or acquisition can\u2019t be underestimated, and many manufacturers at the show were wrestling with the complex consequences of inorganic growth. Acquired businesses operating on different ERPs or proprietary systems create a major headache. If that\u2019s familiar, then Flintfox can help. We\u2019ve worked with manufacturers who have grown through acquisition, centralizing all of their pricing data and controls. Learn more about how Flintfox can assist with data integration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Manufacturers feel like they have less control of their channel partner pricing. Distributors are setting their own prices and discounts with the end buyer, and as a result, manufacturers are having to claw back profit from other lines retrospectively. This is where a solution like Pay and Trace comes in. Discover more about our Pay and Trace solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The people we spoke to said they need to be given the budget and tools to maximize the resources and data they have. Find out how Flintfox can help maximize your pricing resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
