Overview

The market for Office Machines and its sub-segments such as Check Endorsing Machines are at an interesting intersection. Offices in large corporations and organizations generate a lot of solid waste every day. Many organizations are now adopting practices to reduce their environmental footprint.

Globalization has opened new markets for suppliers. Check Endorsing Machines market was historically a localized industry, but many geographies have seen introduction of new, foreign players who brought with them a new set of business practices and value propositions. Influx of this new competition has forced the traditional local suppliers to innovate and enhance their offerings to match the new benchmarks.

Trends like these and many others discussed in this report are necessitating a relook at the way Check Endorsing Machines is procured and the procurement cost saving opportunities that exist.

Risks in Check Endorsing Machines procurement

Check Endorsing Machines procurement managers also need to proactively identify and mitigate potential risks that can arise in the supply chain or contracts for Check Endorsing Machines procurement. Some examples include:

Contract-related risks where unfavorable credit terms may severly penalize buyers for delayed payments or entitle the supplier to demand pre-payments or shorten the payment terms are not very common in the category but they do exist in certain situations where buyers' liquidity or financial health is in question
Suppliers may face a situation where they are unable to honor a contract in its entirety due to shortage of resources, finances or capabilities. While contractual terms safeguard buyers from the non-performance, their operations could still face massive disruptions due to suppliers' non-performance
Offsite storage facilities face the risk of natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods that can lead to huge business losses. Hence, buyers should choose storage facilities based on climate control measures adopted, location of facilities, and fire suppression systems
