Types of Purchasers
We find companies are divided into three groups:
1- First Time Purchasers
A new market opens and suppliers rush in. Purchasing departments take a stab at choosing a supplier by checking and comparing a few suppliers for the lowest price.
But with market timing being critical there is a strong likelihood that the market timing is off and the resulting forward pricing being poor.
Additionally, some suppliers insert contract terminology into their customer contract s which automatically retain the customer and roll the contract year after year.
We can help companies avoid these most common pitfalls before they occur and you will never again need to listen to energy sales calls again.
2- Second Time Purchasers
Companies now understand there is more to energy purchasing than obtaining a few quotes. Market timing, contract terms, contract options, swing tolerance, balancing, etc. are factors that help make a good purchase contract.
Two very important contract issues: Please pull your contract and check immediately!
1- What is the termination date of your existing contract?
2- Is there a termination clause requiring notification to supplier to terminate the contract?
We can help companies avoid these most common pitfalls before they occur and you will never again need to listen to energy sales calls again.
3- Seasoned Purchasers
Now that many of the pitfalls have been removed, it becomes a matter of market timing and obtaining timely supplier quotes. We can assist in both areas.
Our streamlined pricing and bid process brings you the quotes you need in a timely fashion. Trigger rates, load splits, peak shaving, as well as short and long term pricing options are all methods to employ. Our multiple pricing platforms provide pricing transparency with multiple suppliers and solutions.
