Proprietary methodology

Pricetainability™ — sustainable pricing
in four pillars.

Four pillars. One discipline.

Pricetainability™ is Yggra’s proprietary methodology — the common language across all three branches. The framework structures how we approach pricing transformations, from initial diagnosis to ongoing governance.

Why a Proprietary Methodology
Most pricing consultancies deliver advice by the hour. Pricetainability™ is a system — a structured path from ad-hoc pricing to structural discipline.
Pricing transformation doesn’t fail due to lack of knowledge, but due to lack of structure. Companies start with good intentions, run an analysis, write a policy — and three months later everything is back to square one.

Pricetainability™ solves this by treating pricing as a cycle, not a project.Each pillar feeds the next. Truth reveals the problem, Policy structures the response, Execution delivers the change, and Governance makes it last. The cycle repeats — and each iteration makes pricing stronger.

Pillars In Detail

Four pillars: from financial transparency to structural governance

Pillar 01
Truth
Financial truth as starting point.Before you can change anything, you need to understand what’s really happening. Truth is about Net Revenue visibility: what do customers actually pay, after all discounts, bonuses and exceptions? Where is margin leaking? Which segments deserve attention?

This is not a quick scan — it’s a full diagnosis that lays the foundation for everything that follows. Without Truth, you build policy on assumptions.

Delivered via: Pricing Audit (Strategy) and Sentinel (Analytics)
Pillar 02
Policy
From truth to rules.Policy translates financial insights into concrete, actionable pricing rules. Segmentation, target margins per customer group, discount policy with escalation levels, and indexation mechanisms. The result is a pricing playbook the commercial team can follow — without having to evaluate every deal individually.

Delivered via: Strategy Playbook (Phase 2) and Consulting Sprints
Pillar 03
Execution
Strategy without execution is worthless. Execution gaat over de mensen en vaardigheden die nodig zijn om het beleid te implementeren en vol te houden. Heb je de juiste pricing capaciteit in huis? Begrijpt het salesteam het nieuwe kader? Wie bewaakt de naleving?

This is where Talent and Strategy come together: the right people in the right place, with the right expertise.

Pillar 04
Governance
Pricing is not a project — it’s a discipline.Governance provides the cadence, accountability and exception management that keep pricing consistent over time. Monthly reviews, exception monitoring, quarterly business reviews with the MT. Without governance, every transformation reverts to ad-hoc within six months.
