Strategic Sourcing Guide to Floor Covering And Furniture Insurance Procurement

Overview

Business practices within Floor Covering And Furniture Insurance market are heavily influenced by changing trends across the category as well as within the broader Financial market. Many suppliers are investing in automation technologies such as AI, robotics, machine learning and big data to optimize their business operations and offer new services to their customers. However, a part of this investment is also passed to buyers in the form of high prices being charged for value added services.

Lack of skilled in-house manpower continues to be the largest factor for hiring of Floor Covering And Furniture Insurance.

New locations and vendors are emerging as cost effective suppliers of Floor Covering And Furniture Insurance, offering an opportunity to widen the supplier base and gain further negotiation leverage with incumbent suppliers.

As a result, category managers need to closely monitor the Floor Covering And Furniture Insurance procurement trends and identify changes required in their procurement environment for the category.

Floor Covering And Furniture Insurance Procurement Best Practices

Sometimes, procurement functions are unable to timely alter their practices while responding to market conditions. Industry experts acknowledge that periodically reviewing procurement best practices and adopting learnings from across procurement categories can help procurement teams respond to market needs in a more agile way. This report combines our experience of other categories with Floor Covering And Furniture Insurance procurement insights and hand picks best practices that can work for category managers delving in this market.

For example, Buyers should engage with service providers that provide AFA in their pricing as negotiating on an hourly basis can increase the procurement cost of buyers due to overruns within lawsuits. AFA also provides buyers with cost predictability, certainty, and transparency.

There are increased exposure risks of confidential data such as product and service information, operations, and customer information when engaging a third-party supplier. Buyers must engage with suppliers that use encryption technologies, password protection, access control solutions, and proper training schedules to prevent possible information breach.

Category managers must ensure that they have clearly identified and listed down potential negotiation levers to maximize the value of their category spend before entering into contract-related discussions with service providers. Common negotiation levers to maximize value include deadlines, terms related to payments, (including fees, expenses, and payment timelines) and assistance required from the buyer's organization.
