What Is Value Management?

Value Management is an organizational discipline centered on making customer value a central guiding principle for B2B commercialization, from product development and management decision-making to marketing and sales execution.

Value Management Overview

VALUE MANAGEMENT ALIGNS B2B COMMERCIAL TEAMS
AROUND THE CUSTOMER AND THEIR OUTCOMES.

B2B organizations have utilized value-based pricing for decades to capture their fair share of the customer value created by their innovative product and service offerings. Teams engaged in Value Management calculate the differentiated economic value or a product or service offering relative to a reference alternative, for specific customer segments. Once the economic impact of the offering’s value drivers are calculated, a price is set to capture a fair share of the value created by the B2B offering. This creates a win-win scenario, where B2B sellers are aligned with customer outcomes while maximizing profitability and product launch success.
