Strategic Sourcing Guide to Hand Dryers Procurement

Overview

Several macro changes in the dynamics of overall Building Operations as well as Hand Dryers procurement trends are poised to change the business practices and procurement thumb rules. Suppliers have historically gained handsome margin-on-margin by sub-contracting a part of their work to another contractor. However, Buyers are now delving deep into the business models of suppliers and negotiating hard to avoid further sub-contracting. In cases where it is imperative to sub-contract, category managers are employing should-cost models to keep supplier margins on sub-contracting to the minimal.

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 Hand Dryers.

Buyers of Hand Dryers 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.

Category managers need to take note of the potential of these developments and reassess the changes required in their procurement practices.

Hand Dryers Procurement Best Practices

It has become imperative for category managers to remain as agile as possible in terms of their procurement practices. However, it is not always easy to quickly spot and implement alternative practices in a category like Hand Dryers. To help quick decision making, this report advises on several procurement best practices that have worked well for category managers.

For example, Buyers must ensure the participation and collaboration of all related cross-functional teams (procurement, electrical, engineering, and housekeeping) in category management and planning activities. This is crucial, as these teams will be the primary end-users of the services offered by suppliers, and this step will ensure consistency in services.

Buyers should set a baseline against which the performance of suppliers can be benchmarked along with setting measurable/quantifiable KPIs. Defined KPIs provides suppliers with clarity on the scope. Besides setting standards for operations, pricing, and performance, KPIs must provide tangible goals in terms of the quality of solutions.

Category managers must explore opportunities to integrate planning and management activities of categories using analytics, to gain better control over category spend. This will also allow them to consolidate their supply base easily, as well as to segment suppliers based on requirements and spend on each supplier.

Risks in Hand Dryers procurement

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


  • Procurement without consulting the actual users of Hand Dryers may result in a mismatch in expectations of the buyer's internal stakeholders versus the actual contract executed
  • 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 Hand Dryers
  • Rising cost of labor, irregular evaluation of asset condition, and improper maintenance of the assets at the facilities increases cost of facilities management. Also, poor planning of maintenance and contingency budgeting results in an increase in the budget to the category managers
