Cost comparisons controlled against market movement
Before-and-after figures account for broader market pricing shifts over the comparison period, isolating the savings attributable to the procurement change itself.

Margin impact across segments
Coverage spans installers, distributors and EPCs, showing how a sourcing change affected margin differently depending on the buyer's position in the supply chain.
FAQs
How is before-and-after ROI actually measured in these case studies?
Each case study compares cost and margin from before a procurement change against the same metrics after it, using the buyer's own numbers. The point is a direct like-for-like comparison of what changed once sourcing shifted. Figures are framed around real cost and margin impact rather than modeled projections.
Do these comparisons control for market pricing changes over the same period?
Yes, the cost comparisons are controlled against market movement so the before-and-after difference reflects the procurement change, not just a general price swing. Without that control, a falling market could make any change look good. Isolating the procurement effect keeps the ROI honest.
Are ROI figures specific to one segment or across all buyer types?
The case studies report margin impact across segments rather than a single blended number, because buyer types differ in what they source and how. That lets you look at results closer to your own business rather than a one-size figure. Individual results still vary with project mix and volume.
