| 6 weeks after attending The Negotiation Strategy and Tactics Program participants were asked “Is there a situation in which you achieved a specific measurable result through techniques practiced in the program?” The following are some of the responses: “We were able to put together three separate agreements with a combined value of 9 to 10 million. Negotiations resulted in savings of 20 percent (+/-) off quoted (not list) pricing. Savings estimated $1.5 million.” “Working on a team to develop a contract with a vendor, we were able to save our company nearly one million dollars by using Negotiation Strategy and Tactics.” “Purchasing was able to negotiate a sale and trade for 25,230 feet of surplus casing and recovered our book value in the amount of $835,000. In the trade portion of the negotiations, we were able to use some of the Houston region’s 4Q90 casing requirements as incentive for a vendor to trade for the remaining 103⁄4" surplus casing.” “I have just completed signing a contract for pacemakers for the next twelve months and anticipated savings will be in the $300,000 range.” “Negotiated a 50% discount on software and ongoing maintenance contracts for a corporate-wide risk management system. Estimated savings: $240,000. Obtained additional vendor services at no charge, such as modifications, additional software modules, and support for installation.” “Working on a team to develop a contract with a vendor, we were able to save our company nearly one million dollars by using Negotiation Strategy and Tactics.” “Met with a joint interest owner in a producing property we operate to attempt to resolve $27,000 in disputed charges. As a result of the meeting, the joint interest owner agreed to pay the entire amount.” “Successfully negotiated a performance program (annual) with one of our major customers that delivered an additional $65K to the bottom line. This was the test case identified at the course.” “In most recent negotiations with an external contract, we saved roughly $20,000 on a $50,000 contract. In addition, their ‘wants’ were met.” “Saved a $400,000 contract with XXX corporate account while maintaining average list price. Gave up some ancillary computer programs that meant a lot to this account but very easy to justify on our end.” |
