Strategic Sourcing Guide to Furniture Accessories Procurement

Overview

Business practices within Furniture Accessories market are heavily influenced by changing trends across the category as well as within the broader Office Furniture, Fixtures and Fittings market. The category has historically lagged in tech adoption due to inadequate skillsets of majority of workforce and the perennial requirement to reduce facilities related cost. Therefore, suppliers who have demonstrated technological prowess to achieve efficiencies are being preferred over traditional vendors.

Suppliers are shedding the category expert tag and moving up the value chain to offer an integrated approach to their services. With this new approach, suppliers can offer a wide portfolio of services and position themselves for large contracts that go beyond just Furniture Accessories.

Buyers of Furniture Accessories are insisting on hard evidence to support cost reduction. Suppliers are responding with elaborate matrix of KPIs that provide managers actionable data on supplier performance and cost savings achieved.

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

Furniture Accessories Procurement Best Practices

As market conditions become more dynamic and procurement practices get more sophisticated, category managers need to be cognizant of the best practices that work for their Furniture Accessories category procurement. The report offers a succinct analysis of Furniture Accessories procurement best practices.

For example, Buyers must clearly define clauses pertaining to the ownership of sub-contracting services that are not a part of their preferred suppliers' portfolios. This will ensure consistency in the services of sub-contracted firms as well as protection of confidential data.

Investing in benchmarking studies that help category managers enhance their knowledge on pricing or billing rates of suppliers allows them to not only save costs, but also negotiate better with suppliers. For example, while negotiating for bundled services, they can save significantly on a single service by cross-verifying rates quoted by suppliers against industry benchmarks.

Buyers require industry-specific services to effectively operate their production facilities. Thus, they should opt for service providers that can offer customization and bring in years of experience in serving the needs of that industry.

Risks in Furniture Accessories procurement

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


  • Procurement without consulting the actual users of Furniture Accessories may result in a mismatch in expectations of the buyer's internal stakeholders versus the actual contract executed
  • Suppliers are often faced with challenges such as shortage of labor, as the demand for FM services is very high. Shortages can interrupt operations, leading to delay in projects and cost overruns
  • 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 Furniture Accessories
