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 Illustrations procurement insights and hand picks best practices that can work for category managers delving in this market. For example, Service providers often hire subcontractors to assist in certain aspects of a project. Buyers must ensure that subcontractors are bound by the same terms and conditions that main service providers adhere to. Buyers should also ensure that the project budget does not exceed while negotiating with subcontractors. While engaging with a service provider, buyers should procure creative services from a tier 1 creative agency and outsource the production work to a local agency to reduce billing rates. Buyers should engage in long-term contracts with service providers to gain value additions and other benefits. Engaging in long-term contracts reduces the total cost of ownership, for buyers, for the service delivered.
