Negotiating with S&P Global

Negotiation Tips

This tactic involves presenting competitors as alternatives to increase your leverage during negotiations. Share that you are in discussions with other suppliers who are providing competitive quotes and value propositions, indicating the pressure on the vendor to meet your pricing expectations.
Emphasizing the need to remove auto-renewal to ensure negotiation leverage is retained in future contracts can be a powerful method. Stating that your finance/legal departments require this clause to be eliminated could yield favorable terms.
This tactic connects increased usage with lower rates. Make it clear that as your organization grows and usage increases, you expect pricing adjustments to reflect this growth. Highlight how a consolidated pricing structure would benefit both parties.
If there are discounts tied to previous agreements that are not specified as one-time offers, leverage these for ongoing negotiation. State that the finance team did not anticipate a reduction in budget when discussing the discount provided.
This is about pushing for essential updates or features that should be covered without extra charges. Leverage industry standards where competitors offer similar features at no premium cost to insist on more favorable pricing or the addition of features at no additional charge.
Customers generally experience the best results when anchoring at a budget significantly below the suggested uplift percentage and asking for its removal based on existing performance. This leverages historical performance to negotiate for reduced or no uplift.
