Strategic Sourcing Guide to Offshore Installation Services Procurement

Overview

Several macro changes in the dynamics of overall Operation of Mining Facilities as well as Offshore Installation Services procurement trends are poised to change the business practices and procurement thumb rules. Outsourcing of Offshore Installation Services now represents a significant part of the global spend on this category, driven by value derived and a growing number of vendors who keep innovating with new services and value propositions.

Several macro level trends such as slowing economic growth, trade conflicts, rising wages and technological disruptions have put pressure on managers to reduce their spend on Offshore Installation Services without affecting the performance.

Suppliers are shedding the category expert tag and moving up the value chain to offer an integrated approach to their services. With this new approach, suppliers can offer a wide portfolio of services and position themselves for large contracts that go beyond just Offshore Installation Services.

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

Offshore Installation Services Procurement Best Practices

It has become imperative for category managers to remain as agile as possible in terms of their procurement practices. However, it is not always easy to quickly spot and implement alternative practices in a category like Offshore Installation Services. To help quick decision making, this report advises on several procurement best practices that have worked well for category managers.

For example, Buyers require industry-specific services to effectively operate their production facilities. Thus, they should opt for service providers that can offer customization and bring in years of experience in serving the needs of that industry.

Category managers must explore opportunities to integrate planning and management activities of categories using analytics, to gain better control over category spend. This will also allow them to consolidate their supply base easily, as well as to segment suppliers based on requirements and spend on each supplier.

Investing in benchmarking studies that help category managers enhance their knowledge on pricing or billing rates of suppliers allows them to not only save costs, but also negotiate better with suppliers. For example, while negotiating for bundled services, they can save significantly on a single service by cross-verifying rates quoted by suppliers against industry benchmarks.

Risks in Offshore Installation Services procurement

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

  • Irregular inspections of facilities and installations can lead to the failure of electrical and maintenance-related equipment. This leads to downtime and interrupts the day-to-day operations of the buyers, thereby resulting in huge losses
  • Workers may have to handle hazardous substances/materials. Non-compliance to the safety standards and working without using the personal protective equipment can result in accidents and affect operations. Workers are also required to work at heights while carrying out cleaning activities. Non-adoption of precautionary measures by workers can lead to fatalities or severe injuries, thus negatively impacting the reputation of buyers
