Is this supplier price fair? Compares a quoted price (any currency; per t, kg, lb, unit…) with the PackIndex benchmark: difference %, verdict FAIR / HIGH / LOW, where the quote sits in the benchmark's 12-month range and, with a quantity, the overpayment. Free callers are compared with the 12-week delayed reference value.
PackIndex code, e.g. PP, KRLNR, OCC, GAS_TTF, CORR. Use search_indices if unsure.

}
}Change a Design Studio project's order quantity, target region, contents size (boxes — enables right-sizing), name or performance floor (corrugated: ECT; folding cartons: bending stiffness in mN·m; rigid packs: top-load kgf). Free — no Suite run; a new quantity re-prices the existing bill of materials. Use it when the user gives the real volume before comparing options or requesting quotes.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| name | string | |
| region | string | Target market or supply country |
| quantity | integer | Units per order / year |
| project_id* | integer | |
| contents_mm | string | Boxes: the product(s) as packed, 'L x W x H' in mm (3 balls of 74 mm in a row: '74 x 74 x 222'). Enables right-sizing. |
| performance | object | Performance floor — use the pair that fits the pack. Downgauging is checked against the floor only when both current and required are given. |
