Negotiation
What are they thinking?
Everyone negotiates, but most are not aware they are doing it, and it is an inherent part of everyday life. The purpose of any negotiation is to reach an agreement that resolves a point of difference or an understanding on a course of action.
In its most common applications it is typically a give and take process where the parties (whose goals and objectives initially conflict) seek a common ground from which to fashion an agreement or understanding. It is a process that seeks a solution or set of solutions based on compromise.
When CDC Integrated Services undertakes a negotiation on behalf of a client it does so on the principle that the goal of the party(s) is to preserve and advance the existing relationship and that the substantive outcomes of the negotiation are to achieve that purpose.
We help our clients understand the strengths and weaknesses of their positions at the negotiating table.

Questions about negotiation
What is negotiation support?
Help preparing for and conducting a negotiation: analyzing the claim or the contract, setting objectives and walk-away points, planning the approach and, where wanted, sitting at the table as an advisor or representative.
What is a claims analysis?
A review of a claim, the contract behind it and the facts, to work out what is actually owed, what can be proven and where the leverage is before any demand is made or answered.
Why do retainers make sense for negotiation work?
A retainer gives a business a go-to resource and a rapid response when a dispute comes up, instead of starting from zero each time. CDC Integrated Services describes its retainer on the Why Retainers Make Sense page.
Can CDC Integrated Services help with proposals and contracts?
Yes. Proposals and contracts are reviewed and negotiated so the terms protect the business before a dispute ever starts.
How does negotiation relate to mediation?
Negotiation is the parties working it out directly; mediation adds a neutral third party when direct negotiation has stalled. Both aim for a settlement the parties choose rather than one imposed on them.
Where does CDC Integrated Services work?
With businesses and individuals in Houston, Texas and the surrounding area, and by phone or video where the parties are elsewhere.
