Overview

Several macro changes in the dynamics of overall Industrial Goods as well as Front End Loaders/Dozers procurement trends are poised to change the business practices and procurement thumb rules. Customers are expecting service and experience levels which are at par with what ecommerce and consumer sectors of today offer.

Suppliers of Front End Loaders/Dozers are moving up the value chain - both organically as well as through M&As.

Front End Loaders/Dozers Procurement Best Practices

The report discusses in detail the best practices that have served well the category managers responsible for Front End Loaders/Dozers procurement.

For example, Buyers should invest in benchmarking studies that help category managers to improve their knowledge on market pricing or billing rates of service providers. This helps them to not only save costs but also increase their negotiation power.

Buyers should assess the level of adoption of the latest technologies by suppliers to assess cost-saving opportunities and quality that can be provided by the latter. For instance, the adoption of technologies such as cloud computing will enable suppliers to reduce their internal computing hardware requirements for operations such as CAD and CAM. This can, in turn, enable them to reduce their operating costs, thereby suppliers can offer products at lower rates to buyers.

Buyers must have a clear understanding of the subcontracting policies, if any, of Front End Loaders/Dozers suppliers. Factors such as cost incurred, service quality, adherence to timelines, and regulatory compliance of subcontractors employed by suppliers should be carefully assessed prior to engagement.
