Strategic Sourcing Guide to Identification ID Press Machines Procurement

Overview

Several macro changes in the dynamics of overall Office Machines as well as Identification ID Press Machines procurement trends are poised to change the business practices and procurement thumb rules. Suppliers of office solutions are diversifying their product portfolio and are now competing in markets which were not their core offerings a while ago. Courier and parcels is the only category which is relatively untouched by such diversification within office solutions market.

Service providers are incurring incremental expenditure on technology with the procurement and operation of advanced technologies and software to improve efficiencies and better serve the customers. Increasing technology-related expenditure is expected to have an inflationary impact on the procurement price offered to the buyers.

In a fragmented market, where differentiation is difficult to achieve, pricing is more often set by the level of competition. One of the major challenges faced by the global suppliers is the intense competition which is frequently leading to over-discounting.

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