A market based approach to allocating a resource within an organizational entity is disclosed. In some embodiments, a request comprising a bid indicating an amount of a purchasing power asset that a requester with which the request is associated is prepared to provide within the organizational entity to obtain the resource is received. The request is associated with a pool of competing requests for the resource, each competing request having associated with it a corresponding competing bid from a competing requestor from within the organizational entity. A winning bid is selected from the pool of competing requests. The resource is caused to be delivered to the successful bidder, and an accounting transaction is executed to charge the successful bidder an amount of purchasing power asset corresponding to a resource price. In some embodiments the price charged is an organizational entity-wide benchmark price, such as a market clearing price.
