Cost-Plus Pricing
Turn Cost Changes into Profit Protection.
Don’t let fluctuating costs erode your margins.
Automate cost-plus pricing, enforce margin floors, and adjust instantly to changing costs with Rockton Pricing Management. Always ensure selling prices reflect actual costs plus markup. No guesswork, no spreadsheets.
A Perfect Fit for Cost-Plus Pricing
Cost-plus is one of the most common pricing methods in distribution and one of the most error-prone when managed manually. RPM automates the full cost-plus calculation as part of its Pricing Automation layer, so sell prices stay accurate as costs change, without manual lag or spreadsheet maintenance. Every cost component: raw materials, landed costs, commissions, overhead, can be included in the rule, with minimum margin guardrails to protect profitability.
If you’re managing pricing as costs shift, you’re probably facing at least one of these challenges:
Costs change frequently but your pricing remains static and margins quietly vanishes.
Applying markup manually is time-consuming and error-prone, leading to pricing that’s inconsistent or outdated.
You’re missing hidden cost components like landed cost, commissions, overhead or price tiers, so your cost base is incomplete and your margin vulnerable.
Your ERP or pricing system isn’t flexible enough to enforce cost-plus logic dynamically across products, customers or cost-structures.
You need a solution that automates cost-plus pricing, integrates cost inputs, adapts when costs change, and protects your margin consistently. Rockton Pricing Management Software can help.
