Strategic Sourcing Guide to Coniferous Wood Procurement

Overview

Business practices within Coniferous Wood market are heavily influenced by changing trends across the category as well as within the broader Construction Supplies market. Construction activities and manufacturing of construction supplies are known to be a large source of emissions across the world. Regulatory and social pressures to keep emissions in check have transformed the way construction industry operates. Sustainable practices have penetrated the traditional business processes. There is an increasing demand for green buildings, low carbon concretes and other low emission construction aggregates and renewable energy solutions. All these factors are contributing to a significant change in the procurement standards and practices within the category.

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.

As a result, category managers need to closely monitor the Coniferous Wood procurement trends and identify changes required in their procurement environment for the category.

Risks in Coniferous Wood procurement

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


  • 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 Coniferous Wood
  • Construction projects are exposed to different types of political and regulatory risks depending on the project lifecycle stage, for example, delayed construction permits, community opposition during the planning and construction phases, expropriation and changes to asset-specific regulations, tightened decommissioning requirements and non-renewal of licenses at the end of a contract
  • Acceptance of an unfinished design for timely implementation of the project is a common scenario in the construction industry. However, this leads to defects in the design and failure to meet the prescribed standards and legal requirements
