Strategic Sourcing Guide to Roll-Fed Label Printing Procurement

Overview

Business practices within Roll-Fed Label Printing market are heavily influenced by changing trends across the category as well as within the broader Printed Products market. Buyers prefer to engage suppliers whose offerings span beyond Roll-Fed Label Printing. The practice brings in several advantages such as rationalization of supplier base, economies of scale and reduced category management cost.

Many large and mid-sized companies, especially from legal, financial, healthcare and real estate sectors are still heavily reliant on paper. Off late, there is a growing concern on security of documents - whether printed or stored digitally on a connected printing device. To address this concern, suppliers are coming forward with solutions that offer print and document security and monitoring services.

Availability of mobile print solutions where a buyer's employees can use any mobile device to send a document for printing from a remote location has transformed the procurement decisions within overall print management category.

As a result, category managers need to closely monitor the Roll-Fed Label Printing procurement trends and identify changes required in their procurement environment for the category.

Roll-Fed Label Printing 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 Roll-Fed Label Printing. To help quick decision making, this report advises on several procurement best practices that have worked well for category managers.

For example, Personalization of posters, cards, and messages have a high impact on end-consumers during marketing campaigns and therefore, preferred suppliers must have the capabilities to offer personalization in digital printing.

Buyers prefer to engage with service providers that adopt hedging techniques to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in printing ink prices. The majority of printing inks are primarily derivatives of crude oil, the prices of which are highly volatile. Thus, engaging with service providers that adopt hedging will allow buyers to minimize the impact of price fluctuations pertaining to printing inks during the contract tenure.

Engage suppliers that can offer digital print outputs in different dimensions to help increase the visual appeal of printed materials. Service providers should be capable of offering a wide range of dimensional digital print outputs, such as pop-up cubes and multi-dimensional shapes that can expand, fold, and explode, as this increases the visual appeal of the printed product.

Risks in Roll-Fed Label Printing procurement

Roll-Fed Label Printing procurement managers also need to proactively identify and mitigate potential risks that can arise in the supply chain or contracts for Roll-Fed Label Printing procurement. Some examples include:


  • 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 Roll-Fed Label Printing
  • Paper, ink, other raw materials, and fuel form important cost components for the broader print services category. However, the supply of raw materials such as fuel and paper is highly dependent on demand-supply fluctuations. Any increase in prices of these raw materials may critically affect the cash flow of commercial print suppliers and subsequently affect their ability to invest in CAPEX projects
  • Suppliers depend on various third-party vendors for providing IT support, storage, and distribution of print materials and inputs. Any supply failure on third-party vendor's part may lead to inconsistency and delay in the supply of print materials to buyers. Moreover, these supply inconsistencies may compel suppliers to procure the product from other suppliers at the market price, which could be higher than the contract price. This result in an increase in procurement cost for suppliers
