Graybar
IMPACT AI pricing guidance
Graybar expanded IMPACT pricing after reporting positive results from its first phase
Problem
Graybar's managers and salespeople needed pricing guidance that supported competitive offers and profitability.
Approach
Graybar deployed its IMPACT pricing program to provide AI-based guidance for customer pricing decisions. Its 2022 annual report said the first phase had produced positive results and that a second phase had rolled out in early 2023. The report did not identify an external supplier.
Results
No published figures
Takeaway
The program supported pricing decisions by salespeople. Graybar did not quantify its effect on margin or sales.
