Strategic Sourcing Guide to Automobile Seatcovers Procurement

Overview

The market for Purchase and its sub-segments such as Automobile Seatcovers are at an interesting intersection. Regulatory changes are taking place more frequently and, in some cases, randomly. It is getting difficult to align procurement with all the new regulations, especially when category managers are responsible for multiple regions with different regulations.

Increased availability of options both in terms of suppliers and new propositions from suppliers is also influencing the procurement trends for Automobile Seatcovers and improving leverage for buyers in some cases.

Many suppliers are reeling under pressure from a lack of sufficiently trained manpower in enough numbers.

Trends like these and many others discussed in this report are necessitating a relook at the way Automobile Seatcovers is procured and the procurement cost saving opportunities that exist.

Automobile Seatcovers 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 Automobile Seatcovers. To help quick decision making, this report advises on several procurement best practices that have worked well for category managers.

For example, Performing regular preventative maintenance for the assets will help buyers achieve productivity and profitability. Moreover, performing preventive maintenance from time-to-time will help buyers sustain a highly operational fleet, which will reduce operation-related costs for buyers/service providers. Ineffective preventive maintenance will drive the additional cost incurred by buyers and increase in downtime of the fleets.

Buyers should adopt strategic contract management activities as it helps them to avoid additional costs. Additional mileage allocation, interest rate, residual value and terms related to capitalized cost reduction are some of the terms that can be included by the buyers in the contract terms.

The adoption of advanced technologies such as telematics and IVMS enables buyers to track vehicles, increase fuel efficiency, reduce carbon emissions, and increase cost savings. These technologies ensure buyers safety and increase the efficiency of their fleet.
