EXPERIENCE
Our experience
It takes patience, experience and a hint of luck to build and nourish a company for 40 years. Prognos was founded in 1983 by Ulf Kolheden who’s passion for data and analytics shaped the heart of the company. Ulf was a master in finding data that was invaluable for manufacturing companies to use in their price negotiations. In 2002 Jacob Mannheimer joined the flagship with 30 years of experience within purchasing. Jacob came with the vision of creating a tailormade cost service that could balance the unfair knowledge position suppliers had over strategic buyers. Prognos unique offer attracted both investors and international customers. In 2018 part of the company was acquired by the current owners. Today Prognos is able to provide customized reports to over 40 customers acting both on the local and global market.

TESTIMONIALS
Loved by businesses and individuals across the globe
After our previous supplier wouldn't adjust their prices according to indications from our models from Prognos, we made the decision to look for a new supplier. The funny thing is that the new prices, after the sourcing project, were exactly in line with what Prognos models suggested. This saved us about 20% within this major category.
