Overview

The market for Non-Medical Chemicals Minerals and Gases and its sub-segments such as Lubricant Spray are at an interesting intersection. Suppliers are under an enhanced pressure to offer greater quality, options that suit unique requirements and overall experience of the customer stakeholders involved.

Suppliers are continuously taking efforts to improve efficiencies and productivity and deploying processes and technologies. Some of these investments are likely to increase their costs in the shorter term, but learnings from other sectors keep the suppliers optimistic about a lean cost structure in the longer run.

Procurement costs for Lubricant Spray are highly impacted by an increase in the costs associated with the value chain of Lubricant Spray, such as logistics, labor cost and energy. Additionally, outdated assets are also increasing the cost for suppliers.

Trends like these and many others discussed in this report are necessitating a relook at the way Lubricant Spray is procured and the procurement cost saving opportunities that exist.

Lubricant Spray Procurement Best Practices

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

For example, Competitive bidding as a cost optimization tool is extremely potent but should be carefully deployed only when there is no significant differentiation among Lubricant Spray suppliers.

Buyers should assess the level of adoption of the latest technologies by suppliers to assess cost-saving opportunities and quality that can be provided by the latter. For instance, the adoption of technologies such as cloud computing will enable suppliers to reduce their internal computing hardware requirements for operations such as CAD and CAM. This can, in turn, enable them to reduce their operating costs, thereby suppliers can offer products at lower rates to buyers.

Buyers need to evaluate the in-depth expertise of suppliers in the Lubricant Spray industry. This can be assessed by considering factors such as the years of experience, number of resources that have multi-year experience of working in the same industry and at least 3 to 5 credentials for the supplier.
