发明名称 System and Methods for Multiple Pricing Comparison
摘要 The present invention relates to systems and methods for generating a deal summary including comparisons of different pricing methods. A user, or a multi-dimension top down negotiator system, supplies a time and materials quote to the system through a negotiation interface. A fixed price quote generator then utilizes the received time and materials quote to generate a fixed price quote. Likewise, a gain share quote generator utilizes the received time and materials quote to generate a gain share quote. The gain share quote may include a variable percentage share on future return on investment. A net present value calculator then generates the net present value for the generated quotes using expected future interest rates. A deal summary generator compiles the net present values for the quotes into a deal summary for comparison purposes. This deal summary is utilized to answer a request for proposal. A pricing method optimizer may select the most profitable pricing method from the time and materials quote, the fixed price quote and the gain share quote.
