GET FREE SAMPLEThis report on global Software Development & Design category is part of a larger series of reports on global End User Software and Hardware market. The scope of End User Software and Hardware spans multiple categories and is typically identified as a procurement category that includes all spend relating to the provision of off the shelf software, computer equipment, components, upgradation and replacement.
End User Software and Hardware market around the world is undergoing rapid transitions that have a massive potential to influence the way companies strategize for Software Development & Design procurement and the cost they have to incur. Stringency in the regulatory norms pertaining to data protection and cybersecurity has increased compliance and security burden on suppliers. These additional costs have a potential to drive marginal increase in prices across the key geographies. Buyers are showing an inclination to onboard suppliers whose offerings span beyond Software Development & Design. The practice brings in several advantages such as rationalization of supplier base, economies of scale and reduced category management cost. The ecosystem of Software Development & Design is part of an industry which is developing a host of new transformative technologies. Billions of dollars are being invested into this industry, and companies are in cutthroat competition to discover the next game changing technology, hardware, software, and services.
Sometimes, procurement functions are unable to timely alter their practices while responding to market conditions. Industry experts acknowledge that periodically reviewing procurement best practices and adopting learnings from across procurement categories can help procurement teams respond to market needs in a more agile way. This report combines our experience of other categories with Software Development & Design procurement insights and hand picks best practices that can work for category managers delving in this market. For example, Needs of buyers can vary depending on the industry where buyers operate. For instance, buyers from the financial services industry give high importance to regulatory compliance and data security, whereas buyers from the e-commerce industry prioritize high throughput, low response time, and high scalability. Hence, service providers with a strong knowledge of the security, compliance, and governance needs of buyers' industries and a proven track record of performance with respect to these aspects should be prioritized. Buyers must clearly define clauses pertaining to the ownership of subcontracting services that are not a part of preferred suppliers' portfolios. Subcontractors should be bound by the same terms and conditions as the main contractor to ensure consistency in quality and manage any adverse event such as data breach. It is important for category managers to track and measure the performance of suppliers against a defined set of KPIs that are agreed upon by both parties. Buyers should engage with providers that offer mobile applications and online dashboards to monitor essential performance parameters of the products and services procured.
