Accelerate Price Guidance

Price Guidance is a Pricefx accelerator intended to give guidance about the prices for a set of attributes like product type, customer segment, region, but also quantity or lead time. Price Guidance learns from historical transaction data to recommend a price-related value such as:

  • Unit Price

  • Price Index

  • Margin %

  • Discount %

  • Unit Margin

It leverages modern and explainable machine learning so it can handle multiple pricing drivers, as a category or a number, including when data is limited in some areas. It provides also a solution for new or configured products while still showing which attributes drive the recommendation, as it decomposes each prediction into the contribution of each attribute.

In simple terms: Price Guidance helps pricing teams give sales more accurate, strategy-aligned recommendations and understand why a recommended price makes sense.

The use case is detailed in the Overview section, and the other sections explain how to use the accelerator.
