Strategic Sourcing Guide to Blood-Testing Reagents Procurement

Overview

Several macro changes in the dynamics of overall Medical and Surgical Equipment and Supplies as well as Blood-Testing Reagents procurement trends are poised to change the business practices and procurement thumb rules. Buyers that have multiple locations under management are increasingly opting for a single supplier who can deliver the preferred solutions in a consistent manner across locations. Often suppliers with a physical presence across key geographies are preferred in such cases.

Providers are increasing their adoption of new tools and technologies to optimize efficiencies and reduce the time taken to launch products in the market. This is adding to their OPEX and will have an inflationary impact on the overall price paid by the buyers.

Many suppliers are expanding within the value chain to offer integrated solutions. With this new approach, suppliers can offer a wide portfolio of solutions and position themselves for large contracts that go beyond just Blood-Testing Reagents. Buyers also find the benefits of volume buying, consolidation of supplier base, efficient co-ordination in case of an event and less spending on category management.

Category managers need to take note of the potential of these developments and reassess the changes required in their procurement practices.
