Because the sales department represents the interface of a company to its environment it has to cope with changed requirements of customers to a greater degree than the other departments:

• Increased demand for transparency
• Immediate and reliable information (e.g. in negotiations)
• Price requests for products and changes already in the development phase
• Unwarranted demands for price reductions
• Unwarranted demands for relocations
• Rejection of warranted price increases

In order to achieve its own goals (e.g. establish warranted price increases) the sales department has to revert to high-performing support systems to convince its customers.

The goal of all costdata-solutions for the sales department therefore is to provide you with the right arguments for your price negotiation so that you can put through your price claims efficiently and sovereignly.
