Anklesaria, an established and recognized leader in the field of cost management, and WTP Buynamics, an innovator in the field of cost modeling software solutions, today announced a joint venture partnership to bring world-class cost management software to the world.

Anklesaria, has always wanted to transform their IP into ‘buyer friendly’ software. WTP has proven that they can do this. They have been able to translate complex data and mathematical models into an extremely user-friendly and pragmatic SaaS tool.

Chairman Jimmy Anklesaria commented on the partnership: “After 35 years of working with the biggest and best companies across the world, sharing my cost modeling methodology via training and coaching, I felt it was time to provide a set of tools that enable users to effectively use the techniques they learned in our classes.  We had just begun development of a software toolset when we were introduced to Robert and his team at WTP Buynamics.  We were really impressed with the team, the vision, and, most importantly, the culture.  Our discussion led to a common goal of creating a user-friendly program that embodies the Anklesaria Cost Management toolset.  It is an honour for us to partner with them in creating a data-driven process of cost modeling that will bring value to the customer and a sense of fairness for the supplier.”

Robert Driessen, founder and CEO of WTP Buynamics, a Spend Matters Almanac Top 50 Vendor to Watch, explained: “We continuously invest in our technology, and as a result, we have monthly new software releases. We are incredibly honoured that a company like Anklesaria, the number one authority in the field of should cost pricing, has chosen to entrust us with its data and knowledge to further develop the software in an intensive partnership. By the way, the basis of the collaboration was not the knowledge and expertise, but a personal match and overlap in culture and values. The partnership with Anklesaria gives us overnight access to a wide range of customers. The combined solution is a very powerful tool that not only highlights how organizations can save money through improved negotiations but can also contextualize the opportunity in real dollar terms.”

Within this partnership, cost modules will be developed that provide insight into the cost price structure of services, manufacturing within specific countries, and price discipline. The first solutions will be available soon.
