cost decisions early and throughout the product lifecycle. aPriori's Cost
Management Platform empowers manufacturers to lower cost-of-goods sold (COGS),
provides real-time visibility to "cost-critical" decision information, and builds
critical cost knowledge to go on the business "offensive." aPriori's

reduce cost of goods sold by whole percentages. The aPriori Platform truly enables
"Cost Knowledge Before it Matters."
