Abstract: Some examples provide systems, methods, apparatus, and computer program products for providing a market platform. The market platform may operate to inform buyers and suppliers, to allow buyers and suppliers to select products and contracting parameters to meet their needs, to allow buyers and suppliers to commit to supply agreements, and to enforce those supply agreements. These examples may provide such an integrated system by receiving buyer spend data, receiving contract offers from one or more suppliers based on the spend data, allowing the buyer to select one or more of the contract offers, and monitoring spend data to ensure compliance with the selected contract offer. The system may include dynamic pricing models, altering the price of the purchased products based on compliance with the selected contract offer. The system may also allow for various contracting models for managing the pricing of products based on the contractual terms agreed to by the buyer and supplier.

Abstract: Some examples provide systems, methods, apparatus, and computer program products for monitoring and/or enforcing compliance with contract provisions. A market platform may operate to inform buyers and suppliers, to allow buyers and suppliers to select products and contracting parameters to meet their needs, to allow buyers and suppliers to commit to supply agreements, and to enforce those supply agreements. These examples may provide such an integrated system by receiving buyer spend data, receiving contract offers from one or more suppliers based on the spend data, allowing the buyer to select one or more of the contract offers, and monitoring spend data to ensure compliance with the selected contract offer. The system may include dynamic price models, altering the price of the purchased products based on compliance with the selected contract offer. The system may include provisions for monitoring achievement from buyer spend data, and monitoring and enforcing contract terms based on that achievement.
