Dynamics of the global Workstations market play out within this wider arena of End User Software and Hardware market. Therefore, our coverage of the Workstations category also operates within this broader boundary of the overall End User Software and Hardware market.
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 Workstations procurement and the cost they have to incur. The cut-throat competition in the category is compelling suppliers to go aggressive on their pricing structure and increase their spend on sales and marketing activities. As a result, most suppliers are feeling a pressure on their margins and trying to offer higher margin value added services to have a better control on their profitability. Rise in the cost of certain essential assets and supplies required to deliver Workstations is making a significant addition to the supplier's overall expenditure. This could have an inflationary impact on buyer's procurement expenditure in the Workstations market. New locations and vendors are emerging as cost effective suppliers of Workstations, offering an opportunity to widen the supplier base and gain further negotiation leverage with incumbent suppliers.
The report discusses in detail the best practices that have served well the category managers responsible for Workstations procurement. For example, 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. 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. 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.
