Some were even able to register larger profits. The burning question is how will this continue in future? The same also applies to the technical segment.

  • Swedish Controlled Groups with Business Operations Abroad 2005
    The Swedish Institute for Growth Policy Studies (ITPS) is a Government Agency responsible for providing policy intelligence to strengthen growth policy in Sweden. ITPS primarily provides the Government Offices, Members of the Swedish Parliament, other state authorities and agencies with briefings based on statistical material, policy papers and key analyses. Business policy and regional development policy are areas given high priority. Changes in policy should be based on: • Statistic data and analyses of the structure and dynamics of industry – to obtain an up-to-date view of future challenges and opportunities. • Evaluation of results and effects of policy measures and programmes – to provide benchmarks and learn from measures implemented earlier. • Policy intelligence in order to look outwards and ahead – what issues are likely to come on the growth policy agenda in the future? These represent the principal missions of ITPS.

Spare part pricing is the combination of the research field of pricing with the characteristics of spare parts. The volume of the spare parts is vast compare to the primary products. Spare parts usually stand for a minor part of the sales but a large part of the company's profit. Price has a great leverage on profit compared to an increase in sales volume or cost cutting. Therefore, the profit potential of spare parts pricing is substantial. Moreover, a consistent pricing logic can decrease the amount of customer complaints, and increase the customer satisfaction and loyalty. A company that has identified this profit potential is the forklift manufacturer Atlet.
