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 Purchasing negotiations Data-based identification of cooperation between suppliers Application and limits of game-theoretical procurement optimization The Author Dr. Christoph Pfeiffer is a consultant and managing partner of Competitio Consulting, a management consultancy specializing in the systematic optimization of negotiations. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content.

This book presents criteria and recommendations for successful negotiations. The System of Negotiations, which was developed on a scientific basis for this purpose, clearly illustrates the most important steps, tools and applications. By using game theory and behavioral economics, the success of negotiations in purchasing can be systematically maximized. At the same time, transparency and fairness offer a high level of acceptance among negotiating partners. To this end, numerous practical examples are used to show how contracts can be awarded in the event of competition between suppliers, and how various auction formats and differentiated communication can be used to achieve optimal savings potential. Also for situations where the supplier is a monopolist, ways are described to avoid being at the mercy of pricing power.

The game-theoretic modelling of negotiations has been an active research area for the past five decades, that started with the seminal work by Nobel laureate John Nash in the early 1950s. This book provides a survey of some of the major developments in the field of strategic bargaining models with an emphasize on the role of threats in the negotiation process. Threats are all actions outside the negotiation room that negotiators have ate their disposal and the use of these actions affect the bargaining position of all negotiators. Of course, each negotiator aims to strengthen his own position. Examples of threats are the announcement of a strike by a union in centralized wage bargaining, or a nation’s announcement of a trade war directed against other nations in negotiations for trade liberalization. This book is organized on the basis of a simple guiding principle: The situation in which none of the parties involved in the negotiations has threats at its disposal is the natural benchmark for negotiations where the parties can make threats. Also on the technical level, negotiations with variable threats build on and extend the techniques applied in analyzing bargaining situations without threats. The first part of this book, containing chapter 3-6, presents the no-threat case, and the second part, containing chapter 7-10, extends the analysis for negotiation situations where threats are present. A consistent and unifying framework is provided first in 2.
