Strategic Sourcing Guide to Packaging Design Procurement

Overview

Several macro changes in the dynamics of overall Technical Services as well as Packaging Design procurement trends are poised to change the business practices and procurement thumb rules. Suppliers are increasingly offering a 'bundle' of services which is marketed as a cost saving option. The bundled offering often includes services that are not required by the buyer or are charged at a much higher rate than an A la carte option with another supplier.

New locations and vendors are emerging as cost effective suppliers of Packaging Design, offering an opportunity to widen the supplier base and gain further negotiation leverage with incumbent suppliers.

Suppliers are introducing self-service tools such as virtual agents in their customer service ecosystem to reduce the time and costs incurred by customers to resolve an issue.

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

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.
