Emollients And Protectives Procurement Best Practices

The report discusses in detail the best practices that have served well the category managers responsible for Emollients And Protectives procurement.

For example, Buyers should look to minimize the 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. Although these clauses are not very common in the category, suppliers may still insist on them, especially in situations where buyers' liquidity or financial health is in question.

Buyers must clearly define clauses pertaining to the ownership of subcontracted services that are not part of their service providers' portfolios. This is necessary to ensure service consistency and control over sensitive data that are shared with sub-contracted firms.

Large organizational buyers can leverage their scale of operations to initiate competitive bidding between suppliers. Competitive bidding would enable buyers to have a better visibility of the market prices and may help identify suppliers that offer the most competitive price offering viz-a-viz other players.

Suppliers are posed with the risk of non-conformance to industry standards and regulations, for example, those set by MHRA (UK) and US FDA. Any non-conformance by suppliers can result in penalties, product recalls or even revoking of the operating license
