Vehicle Pricing System

Project Requirements
Toyota had an Excel based pricing system as a precursor for their Finance and Sales systems which used some of the advanced features of Excel such as Goal Seek. They were looking to upgrade this spreadsheet system to accommodate the increase in the number of pricing derivatives and wanted the new system to be fully integrated into their existing Retail Asset Management system.

Solution
Hyperdrive Solutions Ltd designed a secure web based pricing system which enabled full versioning of vehicle derivatives and calculations. Using the secant method algorithm, we were able to emulate the Excel Goal Seek functionality for many of the what-if scenarios the finance team required. Users could edit vehicle price builds, create new versions, publish batches of price builds to the live financial database and perform reporting, auditing and comparisons of various price builds.
