    PRICERADAR: New semi-exclusive parts for enhanced clarity 

    MARKT-PILOT attaches great importance to comprehensive data clarity. In order to differentiate the data more precisely, we are introducing a significant innovation to PRICERADAR: Parts for which no prices were available on the market were categorized as "Exclusive". This can have various reasons, which is why we are now going one step further and shedding some light on this: Parts for which we could not identify any competition, i.e. we could not find a store that sells this part, will remain in the "Exclusive" category.  
    For all other parts, we have identified a competition but have not been able to see a price. This may be due to the fact that spare part prices are only visible after logging in, prices are only provided on request, or no price information is available.  
    From now on, these parts will be labeled with the new category "Semi-exclusive". The exact reasons for this categorization are shown in the detailed view. 

    MARKT-PILOT gives you full clarity about the search results and enables you to incorporate this relevant information into your pricing process.

    PRICEGUIDE: Clarity on value drivers for maximum disclosure 

    Have you ever wondered why your spare part has a certain confidence level? To give you a better insight into the value driver logic and ensure greater clarity, we are now presenting all the value drivers of a part in the PRICEGUIDE detailed view - even those that have not been included in the valuation. This new feature provides you with a more comprehensive overview and enables you to better understand the value drivers applied. We want to ensure that you always have full control over the valuation of your part and understand how the confidence level is put together.

    PRICEGUIDE

    PRICEGUIDE

    Product Launch PRICEGUIDE:
    Automated and market-based price recommendations for spare parts


    WHAT IS IT?
    PRICEGUIDE revolutionizes pricing for machine manufacturers. Based on PRICERADAR's market price research, PRICEGUIDE determines validated price recommendations for each spare part. All market data found for a spare part is individually and automatically evaluated by PRICEGUIDE based on a value driver logic, so that a validated sales price is calculated for each spare part. PRICEGUIDE thus removes the complexity and uncertainty from your pricing process and enables you to make the right pricing decisions at all times.

    WHY DOES IT MATTER? THE PRICEGUIDE enables the creation of precise price simulations at the push of a button, making it the perfect complement to market price research. The PRICEGUIDE not only offers considerable time savings in your pricing process, but also a high degree of certainty in pricing by evaluating the market data determined by PRICERADAR using a value driver calculation. This allows you to make well-founded pricing decisions based on unprecedented market knowledge and systematically increase sales in your spare parts business.

    HOW DOES PRICEGUIDE WORK?
    The PRICEGUIDE is a standalone feature that can be accessed directly from the dashboard in the software. Users are guided through the pricing process in five intuitive steps. From defining value drivers and their weighting to creating revenue simulations, individual pricing criteria can be defined and dynamic revenue development can be simulated. In addition, users can draw on the recommendations of the PRICEGUIDE in the pricing process, enabling you to implement your optimal pricing strategy with ready-made price recommendations.

    WHO GETS IT?
    For all customers who have booked the "Professional" package. The use of the PRICEGUIDE requires the PRICERADAR.

    New design: Color changes in the graphical user interface

    New design: Color changes in the graphical user interface


    WHAT IS IT?
    In recent years, MARKT-PILOT has developed and internationalized into the leading provider of market intelligence in spare parts pricing. We have taken this as an opportunity to make our branding fresher and more innovative. In the course of this, we have also adapted the color interface of the software and harmonized the color scheme of the individual potential groups.

    WHY DOES IT MATTER?
    The update serves as preparation for the launch of our new product, PRICEGUIDE. The new color design also makes the display of the potential groups clearer, which also has a positive effect on navigation within the software.

    HOW DOES IT WORK?
    The adjustments do not affect the functionality of the software and are directly visible to every user after logging in.

    WHO GETS IT? The adjustments to the color interface are directly available to all users.

    New Region Functions

    New Region Functions

    WHAT IS IT? New functionalities allow the users to have one part line per region thus users can now set different sales prices for different regions. 

    WHY DOES IT MATTER? With increasing maturity in market-based pricing you may set different sales prices in different sales prices in different sales regions. As we bring market intelligence from different regions as well, it makes sense to compare sales prices with market prices from the same regions.

    HOW DOES IT WORK? On the dashboard, users can now select different filter settings within the different reports to change the results between all markets and single markets. In the parts overview, users can now filter and sort the results by regions and also set new or other sales prices in different regions. Regions are available for all booked regions.

    WHO GETS IT? All customers who have booked more than region.
