An effective cost model is one of the most valuable tools for an organisation and serves as an aid for building stronger relationships with suppliers while ensuring transparency in costs. By thoroughly understanding the cost structure of the goods and services purchased, we, at IMARC, offer comprehensive cost modeling and forecasting services to assist our clients in their procurement decisions. We provide them with cost models that are flexible, accurate and easy to use. These models help our clients analyse the total production, procurement and ownership costs, enabling them to optimise their processes, thereby, improving the bottom lines.
Our cost models are one of the most efficient and predictive models in the industry. With precise details about the manufacturing process, they also have information about the pricing of all the components affecting the production cost such as the process, machinery, raw materials, by-products, utilities (electricity, steam, fuel, process water, etc.), investment, labour, financials, etc. IMARC also collects other external data such as shipping/transportation indices and federal government economic indicators (CPI, PPI, BLS surveys, etc.) which may possibly affect the procurement costs. With the help of this information which includes cost components and drivers, we present to our customers an organised and standardized data by using different modeling techniques such as Time Series Modeling and Regression Trees. These models are validated by our analysts and other domain experts reaching a value nearest to the actual cost. The final prepared models can predict the production costs over a specified time period as required by the client (depending upon the amount of available historical data).
Client feedback means a lot to us, and we ensure that a partnership with IMARC provides our clients with the insights, strategies, and execution needed to achieve their business goals. Read our testimonials to find out what our customers say about our work.
