This report combines our experience of other categories with Internet Service Providers (ISP) Services procurement insights and hand picks best practices that can work for category managers delving in this market.

For example, Buyers must ensure that service providers cater to their requirements by implementing centralization of content to maintain the project objective.

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.

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.
