Episode 79 dives into a hidden battleground in enterprise software procurement: inflation escalators. Lucas and Luna break down how Fortune 500 companies are now negotiating price increases tied to CPI or PPI in their multiyear SaaS deals. Using the example of a $50 million contract with a major CRM vendor, they explore the leverage points — from benchmarking against competitor terms to building in floor-and-ceiling caps. They also discuss how the shift from fixed to variable pricing affects vendor relationships and procurement strategy. With inflation still elevated in mid-2026, this episode offers a practical playbook for buyers and sellers alike. #EnterpriseSoftware #Procurement #SaaS #Fortune500 #InflationEscalators #ContractNegotiation #VendorManagement #CPI #PPI #MultiYearDeals #PricingStrategy #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #EnterpriseTech #LargeAccountSales #SoftwareContracts Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
