KEY PROCUREMENT INSIGHTS COVERED

Strategic Sourcing Guide to Illuminated Signs Procurement

Overview

Several macro changes in the dynamics of overall Signage and Exhibition Equipment as well as Illuminated Signs procurement trends are poised to change the business practices and procurement thumb rules. 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 Illuminated Signs and offer significant negotiation leverage.

Price rise in certain essential assets and supplies required to deliver Illuminated Signs is making a significant addition to the supplier's overall expenditure. This could have an inflationary impact on buyer's procurement expenditure in the Illuminated Signs market.

Category managers need to take note of the potential of these developments and reassess the changes required in their procurement practices.

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

For example, Buyers should engage with service providers that provide services through an hourly based pricing model. Within an hourly based pricing model, buyers would have a fair idea of the exact time required for the work done by service provider. Consequently, billing rates will be implemented accordingly.

Buyers must ensure that service providers cater to their requirements by implementing centralization of content to maintain the project objective.

Buyers should engage in long-term contracts with service providers to gain value additions and other benefits. Engaging in long-term contracts reduces the total cost of ownership, for buyers, for the service delivered.

Risks in Illuminated Signs procurement

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


  • The communications services industry is a labor-intensive industry and is vulnerable to the vagaries of labor unions. If a company fails to renew agreements or solve labor disputes, it can lead to labor strikes or stoppage of work, thereby leading to delays in service delivery
  • 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
  • Economic downturn can adversely affect employment rates and bring about changes in the spend patterns of customers. This can reduce product launches and adversely affect the industry
