Strategic Sourcing Guide to Afforestation Services Procurement

Overview

A changing ecosystem within the Environmental Goods market also affects the procurement process, cost dynamics and supplier attractiveness for the buyers of Afforestation Services. Several factors in the value chain of Afforestation Services, such as labor cost, logistics, and energy costs are driving up the procurement costs. Additionally, engagement of suppliers who are still operating with outdated assets, technologies and processes is also increasing the cost for buyers.

The global industry has seen a gradual increase in labor cost due to several factors, such as shortage of a trained workforce, increase in minimum wages, regulations around employee benefits and declining appeal for what have been traditionally called unskilled jobs. As the employee expenses increase, suppliers are compelled to pass some of this increase to their buyers by charging higher prices.

Buyers are moving towards longer contract durations with suppliers of Afforestation Services to benefit from value-based discounts, integrated products and services, lower renewal cost and lesser expenses on contracting activities.

Afforestation Services Procurement Best Practices

It has become imperative for category managers to remain as agile as possible in terms of their procurement practices. However, it is not always easy to quickly spot and implement alternative practices in a category like Afforestation Services. To help quick decision making, this report advises on several procurement best practices that have worked well for category managers.

For example, Strong R&D focus is the sign of a supplier committed to enhancing the quality and cost proposition of its solutions. Buyers should collaborate with such suppliers for development of low-cost but highly efficiency products that can bring their OPEX down.

Buyers need to evaluate the in-depth expertise of suppliers in the Afforestation Services industry. This can be assessed by considering factors such as the years of experience, number of resources that have multi-year experience of working in the same industry and at least 3 to 5 credentials for the supplier.

While competitive bidding as a cost optimization tool is extremely potent but should be carefully deployed only when there is no significant differentiation among Afforestation Services suppliers.
