The Pricing Indicator is important to both Buyers and Vendors.

For Buyers, it indicates the response rate they can expect for RFQ’s and thus are more likely to send to those with higher indicators.

For Vendors, if their indictor is kept high it allows them to display above other Vendors with lower indicators but below Preferred Vendors. Ideally, Vendors should endeavour to be become both preferred and maintain a high indicator in order to to have the highest visibility on Buyer search results.
