  21. Market Irritants - Consultants • Suppliers that try to exclude the consultant • Suppliers that try to fool the consumer • Suppliers that try to manipulate the data • Suppliers that don’t follow procedure • Consumers that appoint two consultants • Consumers that appoint but ignore consultants • Consumers that don’t listen

  22. Market Myths • Prices only ever fall • We always achieve savings • We always have the best price • We employ experts so we know • We just can not exceed our budget allowance • So the market is rising - we still want the “wins”

  23. Market Reality • Why didn’t you warn us it was going to happen • We can not accept an increase • If you want to retain our business…… • We want the same price again! • Tell the supplier to hold his price another week • We respond when it suits us not the supplier • My Board will not accept this! • My Board doesn’t want to hear this!

  24. Market Reality • Where are the fundamentals? • What are they? • Weather/Stocks/Supply/Demand/Exchange • Do they really matter? • In part, but not in entirety • What does matter? • Rumour/Perception/Trading Activity

  31. Market Interest - Consumers • Better Supplier Administration • Accurate Consumption Data Flow • Awareness to buyer needs • Clear Understanding of price structure • Flexible & Fixed Price options • Financial Tools • Take opportunity to manage own risk

  32. Market Interest - Consumers • Understand Best Practice • Price competition is still fierce! • Evaluate Suppliers before seeking price • Ensure that they can provide required service • Then, Consider Energy Management

  33. Market Needs - Consumers • Pan-European Support • New or Old EU Members? • Country by Country or Overall? • Same supplier - Different deals in each country • Improved pan-European Supplier Integration • Transparency/Harmonisation on Taxation • Common views across organisations • Same language – different culture!

  34. Market Rumblings - Consumers • What does the UK offer? • Higher Energy Taxation • Higher Environmental Controls • Higher Delivery Charges • Higher Energy Costs • Higher Labour costs • Benefit of weaker Dollar-Sterling Exchange • UK Government aware on Labour Costs only! • Are they moving away and if so, where to?
