From the Back Cover

Applied game theory in procurement has become an essential tool in many companies for systematically achieving successful negotiations. Reverse auctions are a central building block of game-theoretically optimized negotiations. A foundational knowledge of auctions and game theory has thus become vital for procurement professionals.

This book clearly describes many helpful methods and their application in practice. Procurement projects with a high volume, which are interesting for suppliers and whose performance can be well specified, are particularly suitable for using game theory in purchasing. The author also shows how cartels or restrained competition between suppliers can be identified using a purely data-based method.

Every purchase involves a sale. The book is, therefore, not only aimed at buyers. Auctions in procurement and the underlying game-theoretic principles also play an equally significant role for salespeople.

Content

  • Concepts of game theory
  • Examples of applied game theory
