Analysis / Current
status
Lower Price
realization
compared to
manual auctions;
hence Producers
are not willing to
sell through the
e-auctions
E-auctions will
make the role of
the broker
irrelevant
Policy Issue
Buyers insist that knowing the
interested party for a lot helps in
identifying areas of demand
Drive greater
price discovery:
have all lots up for
auction at the
same time
Lower price
realization and %
sold in e-auctions
than manual
auctions
29
LESSONS IN HINDSIGHT
Drive the auction system by your vision of what
it should be and do not be driven by an
overwhelming desire to get a consensus
Do not replicate existing manual systems
Focus on price discovery
Build redundancies to accommodate for
technology malfunctions
Do not underestimate the change
management requirement
Make users pay for operations and
maintenance of the system
