Strategic Sourcing Guide to Radio Advertising Procurement

Overview

A changing ecosystem within the Advertising market also affects the procurement process, cost dynamics and supplier attractiveness for the buyers of Radio Advertising. 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 Radio Advertising can expect to benefit from lower costs of suppliers once they break even with their investments in technology.

Buyers are moving towards longer contract durations and strategic partnerships with suppliers to benefit from value-based discounts, integrated services, low renewal cost and lesser expenses on contracting activities.

Rising cost of workforce possessing core skill sets is expected to offset some of the cost savings that suppliers are expecting through implementation of lean and technology-based operations.

Radio Advertising Procurement Best Practices

Radio Advertising 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 Radio Advertising procurement strategy.

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

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.

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.

Risks in Radio Advertising procurement

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


  • 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
  • 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 Radio Advertising
  • 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
