KEY PROCUREMENT INSIGHTS COVERED

Strategic Sourcing Guide to Mobile Equipment Procurement

Overview

Several macro changes in the dynamics of overall Engineering Products and Equipment as well as Mobile Equipment procurement trends are poised to change the business practices and procurement thumb rules. Procurement costs for Mobile Equipment are highly impacted by an increase in the costs associated with the value chain of Mobile Equipment, such as logistics, labor cost and energy. Additionally, outdated assets are also increasing the cost for suppliers.

Technology is improving productivity and creating fresh demand. Convergence of data science, automation tools, 3D printing, robotics, AI and big data has opened up multiple possibilities to better serve customers at a lower operational cost.

Suppliers of Mobile Equipment are moving up the value chain - both organically as well as through M&As. Their portfolios are increasingly being diversified with the objective of offering integrated solutions that go beyond just Mobile Equipment. Even buyers are engaging vendors who can act as a one-stop solution provider across their geographic footprint. Such strategic engagements can help buyers with savings associated with economies of scale and management of a much smaller supplier base.

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

Mobile Equipment Procurement Best Practices

Mobile Equipment procurement best practices are moving towards a level of sophistication which is typically seen in traditional procurement categories. Category managers now have an attractive opportunity to adapt the best practices seen within this category as well as those being leveraged in other non-related categories. This report summarizes the best practices picked from across multiple categories that could work well for category managers involved with Mobile Equipment procurement strategy.

For example, Buyers should invest in benchmarking studies that help category managers to improve their knowledge on market pricing or billing rates of service providers. This helps them to not only save costs but also increase their negotiation power.

Buyers need to evaluate the in-depth expertise of suppliers in the Mobile Equipment industry. This can be assessed by considering factors such as the years of experience, number of resources that have multi-year experience of working in the same industry and at least 3 to 5 credentials for the supplier.

Strong R&D focus is the sign of a supplier committed to enhancing the quality and cost proposition of its solutions. Buyers should collaborate with such suppliers for development of low-cost but highly efficiency products that can bring their OPEX down.

Risks in Mobile Equipment procurement

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


  • Crude oil is one of the major factors that determines the risks associated with the category as fuel costs account for a major portion of the suppliers' cost structure. Volatility in the prices of crude oil significantly impacts the overall costs incurred in the category
  • 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 Mobile Equipment
  • Political and regulatory changes pose significant risks to the category. For instance, imposition of tariffs on raw materials required to manufacture the finished goods increases costs. Similarly, restrictions on import of goods or raw materials from a particular country also contributes to significant risks. Additionally, insufficient IPR protection and product liability lawsuits lead turnout to be huge risk factors for the category
