"Expert Preparation and Strategic Advice"


Critical to success in any auction is often awareness of the possible pitfalls of participating in an auction, such as overpaying and suffering the Winners Curse. Enhancing our clients' understanding of their situation relative to the auction, calibrating expectations for them, and assessing the behavior of competitors is all part of the strategic planning process. Optimal Auctions' clients succeed due to the high level of preparation that we provide.

Business case modeling and license valuation are critical precursors to participating in an auction. Additionally, a review of the competitive landscape can assist with the formulation of the valuations. Once valuations are formed and the competitive landscape assessed, mock auctions or simulations can be used to practice for the auction and assess likely outcomes. Optimal Auctions uses proprietary software that can be used to simulate participating in the auction. During an auction there is a lot of information generated that can be very valuable if analyzed correctly. Data support helps to make information actionable through visual presentation and insight.

Lastly, we can assist with the application and bidder qualification process.
