KEY PROCUREMENT INSIGHTS COVERED

Strategic Sourcing Guide to Corporate Entertainment Procurement

Overview

A changing ecosystem within the Communication Services market also affects the procurement process, cost dynamics and supplier attractiveness for the buyers of Corporate Entertainment. In the broader industry, automated tools and advanced technology is making inroads and even replacing some of the non-core workforce of suppliers. As a result, overall cost structure of suppliers has become more favorable across the industry and buyers of Corporate Entertainment can expect to benefit from lower costs of suppliers once they break even with their investments in technology.

In recent years, the market has witnessed a significant number of strategic collaborations, mergers, and acquisitions. Such developments have enabled the suppliers to expand their portfolio of offerings, geographic presence, and value chain. Moreover, suppliers have also gained access to new technologies and resources.

An intense competition in the supply market owing to new entrants is expected to provide more procurement options to buyers for Corporate Entertainment and offer significant negotiation leverage.

Corporate Entertainment Procurement Best Practices

As market conditions become more dynamic and procurement practices get more sophisticated, category managers need to be cognizant of the best practices that work for their Corporate Entertainment category procurement. The report offers a succinct analysis of Corporate Entertainment procurement best practices.

For example, Having dedicated on-site staff from the service provider is a highly recommended measure for reducing category lead time for buyers.

Service providers often hire subcontractors to assist in certain aspects of a project. Buyers must ensure that subcontractors are bound by the same terms and conditions that main service providers adhere to. Buyers should also ensure that the project budget does not exceed while negotiating with subcontractors.

It is customary for service provider to charge buyers on a project basis. The project costs are often based on payroll costs incurred by service providers on the various levels of personnel involved in the project. In a bid to derive higher profits, service providers may allocate more senior staff than required. Therefore, buyers must scrutinize the staffing needs of the project and limit the presence of senior staff to not more than 30% of the total allocated staff. This, in turn, providers buyers' advantages such as enhanced cost savings, streamlined execution, and faster delivery time.

Risks in Corporate Entertainment procurement

Corporate Entertainment procurement managers also need to proactively identify and mitigate potential risks that can arise in the supply chain or contracts for Corporate Entertainment 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 Corporate Entertainment
  • Communication service providers operating across regions can be easily affected by fluctuations in exchange rates. Even though they use foreign currency derivative instruments to reduce risks, the inflated state of currency in certain economies can affect the business of communication houses
  • Suppliers may face a situation where they are unable to honor a contract in its entirety due to shortage of resources, finances or capabilities. While contractual terms safeguard buyers from the non-performance, their operations could still face massive disruptions due to suppliers' non-performance
