Beyond Volatility: Identifying and Reversing Unjustified Price Hikes

Beyond Volatility: Identifying and Reversing Unjustified Price Hikes
Price volatility is a reality. Global events can drive costs up overnight — but what happens when conditions stabilize? Too often, elevated prices remain, inflation takes hold, and buyers are unaware that the original cost drivers have subsided, leaving potential savings on the table.
How can you push back on price increases if you don’t understand what caused them in the first place?
Join Daniela Osio, CEO and Co-Founder of Kloopify, for an insightful discussion on how understanding the details of what you’re buying equips you to manage volatility, challenge outdated price hikes, and use data-driven insights to unlock meaningful cost savings for your organization.
