Strategic Sourcing Guide to Pricing & Market Access Procurement

Overview

Several macro changes in the dynamics of overall Market Research as well as Pricing & Market Access procurement trends are poised to change the business practices and procurement thumb rules. The growing shortage of skilled talent and increasing salaries of employees is driving the operational costs of service providers. This is expected to increase service charges at least within the tier 1 suppliers who put a high premium on the talent pool that utilize.

The market is rapidly showing signs of a great divide - at one extreme is a low-cost market with almost commoditized services and at the other end is the market for high cost specialized services. Pricing & Market Access vendors are adopting starkly different business models and cost structures to address both the markets.

There are only a handful of \"Tier 1\" vendors in the Pricing & Market Access market and they have traditionally enjoyed a premium in their pricing. However, Tier 2 suppliers are giving them a tough competition now as they can provide similar services at a lower cost. Many tier 2 suppliers achieve this parity by finding right talent at a relatively lower cost and maintaining lean operations without any frills.

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