Strategic Sourcing Guide to Drafting Papers Procurement

Overview

Business practices within Drafting Papers market are heavily influenced by changing trends across the category as well as within the broader Office Supplies market. Many suppliers have begun to use various online media platforms such as social networking sites and mobile applications to expand their digital presence. It is because digital marketing helps suppliers reach target audience in a cost-effective manner. Also, as most of the leading suppliers of the market have invested in online commerce, digital marketing also helps generate online sales and create brand loyalty.

Suppliers of office solutions are diversifying their product portfolio and are now competing in markets which were not their core offerings a while ago. Courier and parcels is the only category which is relatively untouched by such diversification within office solutions market.

Recent advances in information technology and online commerce have allowed buyers to increasingly utilize e-auctioning as a mechanism to reduce costs across the value chain. E-auctioning allows buyers to reduce the procurement lead times, increase their supplier base and connect with sellers and intermediaries simultaneously.

As a result, category managers need to closely monitor the Drafting Papers procurement trends and identify changes required in their procurement environment for the category.
