Strategic Sourcing Guide to Radiology Procedural Needles Procurement

Overview

Business practices within Radiology Procedural Needles market are heavily influenced by changing trends across the category as well as within the broader Medical and Surgical Consumables market. Over the years, regional boundaries have blurred as suppliers foray into different continents, increase their capital expenditure and spend on cross-border M&A initiatives. The deployment of geographic diversification strategies through such consolidation initiatives has enabled the large suppliers to improve their performance and expand their business footprint.

Buyers that have multiple locations under management are increasingly opting for a single supplier who can deliver the preferred solutions in a consistent manner across locations. Often suppliers with a physical presence across key geographies are preferred in such cases.

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 Radiology Procedural Needles. 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.

As a result, category managers need to closely monitor the Radiology Procedural Needles procurement trends and identify changes required in their procurement environment for the category.

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

For example, Large organizations seek engagement with global category suppliers. However, they must try to achieve the right blend of regional and global suppliers in order to ensure the delivery at locations where global players do not have necessary capabilities.

Large organizational buyers can leverage their scale of operations to initiate competitive bidding between suppliers. Competitive bidding would enable buyers to have a better visibility of the market prices and may help identify suppliers that offer the most competitive price offering viz-a-viz other players.

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.

Risks in Radiology Procedural Needles procurement

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

Procurement without consulting the actual users of Radiology Procedural Needles may result in a mismatch in expectations of the buyer's internal stakeholders versus the actual contract executed
Long credit period provided to buyers for making payment and fluctuating exchange rates pose a risk to suppliers. Default in payment by buyers would impact suppliers' ability to operate efficiently and may create a liquidity risk
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 Radiology Procedural Needles
