Strategic Sourcing Guide to Intravenous Fluids Procurement

Overview

A changing ecosystem within the Medical and Surgical Equipment and Supplies market also affects the procurement process, cost dynamics and supplier attractiveness for the buyers of Intravenous Fluids. Providers are increasing their adoption of new tools and technologies to optimize efficiencies and reduce the time taken to launch products in the market. This is adding to their OPEX and will have an inflationary impact on the overall price paid by the buyers.

Over the years, regional boundaries have blurred as suppliers foray into different continents, increase their capital expenditure and spend on cross-border M&A initiatives. The deployment of geographic diversification strategies through such consolidation initiatives has enabled the large suppliers to improve their performance and expand their business footprint.

Recent cases of malpractices committed within the overall industry have increased the strictness of regulators within the overall industry. Suppliers now operate with a higher burden in the form of increased costs for compliance and data security as well as increased time to receive approvals for new solutions.

Intravenous Fluids Procurement Best Practices

The report discusses in detail the best practices that have served well the category managers responsible for Intravenous Fluids procurement.

For example, Buyers should look to minimize the contract-related risks where unfavorable credit terms may severly penalize buyers for delayed payments or entitle the supplier to demand pre-payments or shorten the payment terms. Although these clauses are not very common in the category, suppliers may still insist on them, especially in situations where buyers' liquidity or financial health is in question.

Category managers must ensure that they have clearly identified and listed down potential negotiation levers to maximize the value of their category spend before entering into contract-related discussions with service providers. Common negotiation levers to maximize value include deadlines, terms related to payments, (including fees, expenses, and payment timelines) and assistance required from the buyer's organization.

Large organizations seek engagement with global category suppliers. However, they must try to achieve the right blend of regional and global suppliers in order to ensure the delivery at locations where global players do not have necessary capabilities.

Risks in Intravenous Fluids procurement

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


  • Long credit period provided to buyers for making payment and fluctuating exchange rates pose a risk to suppliers. Default in payment by buyers would impact suppliers' ability to operate efficiently and may create a liquidity risk
  • With rapidly evolving technology, suppliers are faced with the risk of technological obsolescence. Obsolete technology would not only deter adoption within the buyers' organization but could also result in inefficient process outputs
  • Suppliers may face a situation where they are unable to honor a contract in its entirety due to shortage of resources, finances or capabilities. While contractual terms safeguard buyers from the non-performance, their operations could still face massive disruptions due to suppliers' non-performance
