GET FREE SAMPLEThis report on global Data Providers category is part of a larger series of reports on global Clinical and Medical Support Services market. The scope of Clinical and Medical Support Services spans multiple categories and is typically identified as a procurement category that includes all spend on services used in diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation, including medical practice provided through a third-party, repair and maintenance of equipment and medical science services.
Several macro changes in the dynamics of overall Clinical and Medical Support Services as well as Data Providers procurement trends are poised to change the business practices and procurement thumb rules. Rapid growth in the biosimilar and biologics market and global focus on gene therapy studies for rare diseases have resulted in an increased spend within the broader industry. The growing need for highly skilled workforce specialized in Data Providers is driving suppliers to increase compensation for experience professionals to retain them. This is inflating their OPEX and causing increase in procurement costs. Many suppliers are expanding within the value chain to offer integrated solutions. With this new approach, suppliers can offer a wide portfolio of solutions and position themselves for large contracts that go beyond just Data Providers. Buyers also find the benefits of volume buying, consolidation of supplier base, efficient co-ordination in case of an event and less spending on category management. Category managers need to take note of the potential of these developments and reassess the changes required in their procurement practices.
Sometimes, procurement functions are unable to timely alter their practices while responding to market conditions. Industry experts acknowledge that periodically reviewing procurement best practices and adopting learnings from across procurement categories can help procurement teams respond to market needs in a more agile way. This report combines our experience of other categories with Data Providers procurement insights and hand picks best practices that can work for category managers delving in this market. For example, It is important for category managers to track and measure the performance of suppliers against a set of defined KPIs that are agreed upon during the contract negotiation phase. The performance of suppliers can also be linked to a portion of their fee that can be paid upon rendering of services in a satisfactory manner. Category buyers should invite bids from all potential service providers that have the ability to meet the overall requirements. Bids must be evaluated based on pre-defined parameters such as financial strength, reputation, offerings, geographical presence, and track record. Buyers can use standard scorecards to evaluate service providers and provide necessary feedback to rationalize the given scores. This helps in the effective documentation of decision-making processes. Buyers should look to minimize the contract-related risks where unfavorable credit terms may severly penalize buyers for delayed payments or entitle the supplier to demand pre-payments or shorten the payment terms. Although these clauses are not very common in the category, suppliers may still insist on them, especially in situations where buyers' liquidity or financial health is in question.
