Strategic Sourcing Guide to Technical Pens Procurement

Overview

Several macro changes in the dynamics of overall Office Supplies as well as Technical Pens procurement trends are poised to change the business practices and procurement thumb rules. Most of the developing countries in the world are going through rapid growth in their manufacturing, services and outsourcing sectors, leading to an increasing number of offices. Suppliers are rising to the challenge to induct solutions within their portfolio that are suited for the varied demand patterns that emerge from this expanding customer base.

Offices in large corporations and organizations generate a lot of solid waste every day. Many organizations are now adopting practices to reduce their environmental footprint. In line with these aspirations, demand for recyclable office solutions and supplies is increasing. Parcel/courier packaging, stationery, small equipment and consumables are either being recycled or being manufactured with recycled materials.

Many suppliers have begun to use various online media platforms such as social networking sites and mobile applications to expand their digital presence. It is because digital marketing helps suppliers reach target audience in a cost-effective manner. Also, as most of the leading suppliers of the market have invested in online commerce, digital marketing also helps generate online sales and create brand loyalty. Benefits of digital marketing are making suppliers invest in digital marketing solutions.

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

Risks in Technical Pens procurement

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


  • Procurement without consulting the actual users of Technical Pens may result in a mismatch in expectations of the buyer's internal stakeholders versus the actual contract executed
  • When requirements of the buyers are not absolutely clear or usage patterns are not stable or predictable, suppliers often build in \"cost buffers\" for unforeseen risks due to a lack of complete understanding on buyer's requirements. This increases the risk of overspending on Technical Pens
  • Offsite storage facilities face the risk of natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods that can lead to huge business losses. Hence, buyers should choose storage facilities based on climate control measures adopted, location of facilities, and fire suppression systems
