Risks in Debt Collection Software procurement

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

Procurement without consulting the actual users of Debt Collection Software may result in a mismatch in expectations of the buyer's internal stakeholders versus the actual contract executed
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
When requirements of the buyers are not absolutely clear or usage patterns are not stable or predictable, suppliers often build in \"cost buffers\" for unforeseen risks due to a lack of complete understanding on buyer's requirements. This increases the risk of overspending on Debt Collection Software
