Strategic Sourcing Guide to Ultrasonic Unit Procurement

Overview

Several macro changes in the dynamics of overall Medical and Surgical Equipment and Supplies as well as Ultrasonic Unit procurement trends are poised to change the business practices and procurement thumb rules. The growing need for highly skilled workforce specialized in Ultrasonic Unit is driving suppliers to increase compensation for experience professionals to retain them. This is inflating their OPEX and causing increase in procurement costs.

Many suppliers are expanding within the value chain to offer integrated solutions. With this new approach, suppliers can offer a wide portfolio of solutions and position themselves for large contracts that go beyond just Ultrasonic Unit. Buyers also find the benefits of volume buying, consolidation of supplier base, efficient co-ordination in case of an event and less spending on category management.

Rapid growth in the biosimilar and biologics market and global focus on gene therapy studies for rare diseases have resulted in an increased spend within the broader industry.

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

Ultrasonic Unit Procurement Best Practices

The report discusses in detail the best practices that have served well the category managers responsible for Ultrasonic Unit procurement.

For example, Buyers must clearly define clauses pertaining to the ownership of subcontracted services that are not part of their service providers' portfolios. This is necessary to ensure service consistency and control over sensitive data that are shared with sub-contracted firms.

It is important for category managers to track and measure the performance of suppliers against a set of defined KPIs that are agreed upon during the contract negotiation phase. The performance of suppliers can also be linked to a portion of their fee that can be paid upon rendering of services in a satisfactory manner.

Investing in benchmarking studies help category managers enhance their knowledge about market pricing or billing rates based on job roles and functions. This allows them to not only save costs but also negotiate with suppliers. For example, while negotiating on rates of bundled services, buyers can save significantly on a single service by cross verifying the rates quoted by suppliers against industry benchmarks.

Risks in Ultrasonic Unit procurement

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


  • Suppliers may face a situation where they are unable to honor a contract in its entirety due to shortage of resources, finances or capabilities. While contractual terms safeguard buyers from the non-performance, their operations could still face massive disruptions due to suppliers' non-performance
  • Suppliers are exposed to the risk of fluctuating prices of key inputs. This impacts the product price as suppliers would have to increase product price to maintain contribution margins
  • Contract-related risks where unfavorable credit terms may severly penalize buyers for delayed payments or entitle the supplier to demand pre-payments or shorten the payment terms are not very common in the category but they do exist in certain situations where buyers' liquidity or financial health is in question
