KEY PROCUREMENT INSIGHTS COVERED

Strategic Sourcing Guide to Building Construction Procurement

Overview

Construction Service Providers market around the world is undergoing rapid transitions that have a massive potential to influence the way companies strategize for Building Construction procurement and the cost they have to incur. Periods of macroeconomic uncertainty and increasing stringency of immigration laws are key contributors to the workforce shortage in the market. Domestic workers in developed countries often choose to pursue higher education and less cyclical employment opportunities while foreign workers return to their home countries due to tough immigration laws and economic conditions. Consequently, suppliers have had to increase labor wages to attract skilled and unskilled labor, which has increased their costs and forced them to increase their pricing.

To attract investment and drive long-term value, suppliers are building unique business models and implementing corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives and stakeholder engagement programs. Such strategic initiatives are pivotal to acquire a social license to operate, generate consumer awareness, and have easy access to input commodities.

The growing need for smarter and resilient construction has encouraged a rapid implementation of advanced BIM solutions. The integration of 4D BIM and geographical information system (GIS) is helping in improving construction productivity, construction supply chain management, material supplier selection, estimation of deliveries, and overall coordination between construction companies and material suppliers.

Risks in Building Construction procurement

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


  • Procurement without consulting the actual users of Building Construction may result in a mismatch in expectations of the buyer's internal stakeholders versus the actual contract executed
  • Pricing terms in the contract could prove to be inadequate to safeguard the buyer from impact of a sudden increase in supplier's cost, often arising from a lack of clarity on scope of products or services to be delivered
  • 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 Building Construction
