In an ideal world, your pricing platform has everything covered — real-time data, automated updates, clean dashboards. But any seasoned pricing team will tell you the real world is rarely ideal.
Urgent promotions, seasonal peaks, competitor curveballs, or last-minute reporting demands can expose the limits of off-the-shelf platforms. When those moments hit, flexible ad-hoc pricing data isn’t just helpful — it’s essential.
When Gaps Appear in the Pricing Process
No matter how sophisticated your setup is, pricing data gaps appear.
Maybe your team needs a new feed for a just-launched category. Maybe your competition just rolled out a new bundle offer. Maybe leadership requests a specific margin review report your platform wasn’t configured to provide.
In these scenarios, rigid platforms fall short. Teams scramble with manual data collection or improvised workarounds. The result? Lost momentum, higher risk, and unnecessary pressure during critical moments.
At Insitetrack, we’ve designed our support model to address these challenges head-on.
Ad-Hoc Pricing Data Requests Are Becoming the Norm
Custom or ad-hoc pricing data requests used to be seen as rare, one-off exceptions. Not anymore.
In today’s fast-moving retail world, flexible data delivery has become a baseline expectation. Retailers need partners that can react with speed and precision, not just a tool that quietly runs in the background.
We regularly provide our customers with:
Rapid-turnaround price and stock reports during promotions
Custom feeds for new regions, categories, or marketplaces
Emergency data fixes when platforms miss key SKUs
One-off deep dives into competitor behaviour or historical trends
Temporary data logic changes for seasonal strategies
This isn’t just support. It’s partnership in motion.
Why Flexible Data Matters in High-Pressure Moments
Think about the times that really test your pricing setup:
Black Friday and Boxing Day events
Major product launches
Aggressive competitor undercuts
Strategic pivots or restructures
Standard dashboards and automation often can’t handle the pressure of these scenarios. Pricing teams need reliable ad-hoc pricing data — fast, accurate, and in the format they need.
Because we build close partnerships with our customers, we know their systems, products, and objectives. That means no wasted time starting from scratch, just rapid delivery when it matters most.
How Flexible Support Strengthens Performance
Baking flexibility into your pricing solution delivers long-term advantages:
Less firefighting, with fewer manual data chases
More confidence in every decision
Faster reactions to market shifts
Greater control when your platform isn’t agile enough
Think of ad-hoc pricing data as a safety net. It catches the unexpected and keeps your performance sharp.
The Insitetrack Approach: Built for the Real World
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. Our mission is to deliver data in the way that best supports our customers — whether that’s daily feeds, scheduled reports, or one-off jobs.
We also don’t wait for customers to flag the problem. We proactively monitor, anticipate needs, and provide solutions before gaps turn into setbacks. Because in retail, every pricing decision counts — and every delay costs.
Is Your Pricing Platform Really Enough?
It’s easy to think your existing tools are “good enough.” But when the stakes are high, gaps in your pricing process can cost margin, time, and competitive position.
That’s why flexible, responsive ad-hoc pricing data is more than a nice-to-have — it’s a competitive edge. Your pricing platform should come with a partner ready to adapt, deliver, and keep your pricing on point no matter what the market throws your way.
At Insitetrack, that’s exactly what we deliver.
