Continuous price and supplier monitoring

Detect pressure on your margin before it is too late.

An isolated price does not explain a decision. Cost Radar monitors every supply item, compares its historical unit cost and calculates the direct impact on your net profitability.

Cost control review

Cost increases do not announce themselves: they are spread across small changes.

When you buy from dozens of suppliers, a 4% increase in a raw material or a transport surcharge can go unnoticed until the monthly close reveals the loss of margin.

Noise vs trend

Distinguish a one-off seasonal spike from a structural increase that requires renegotiation with the supplier.

Weighted pressure

Costs do not all carry the same weight: Cost Radar prioritises alerts by their percentage of the business's total cost.
