Strategic Sourcing Guide to Specialized Educational Services Procurement

Overview

The market for Learning and its sub-segments such as Specialized Educational Services are at an interesting intersection. Demand is increasing for self-learning tools that offer flexible course durations as per an employee's convenience and schedule.

Labor cost constitutes a key component of L&D providers' OPEX. Factors such as rise in the cost of living, increase in the local wage policies across geographies, and rise in wages and remuneration packages will propel service providers' OPEX and therefore use of automation and other tools will further increase to offset some of the rise in cost of operations.

Buyers that have multiple locations under management are increasingly opting for a single supplier who can deliver L&D services in a consistent manner across locations. Often global L&D suppliers are preferred in such cases.

Trends like these and many others discussed in this report are necessitating a relook at the way Specialized Educational Services is procured and the procurement cost saving opportunities that exist.

Specialized Educational Services Procurement Best Practices

The report discusses in detail the best practices that have served well the category managers responsible for Specialized Educational Services procurement.

For example, Buyers prefer to streamline their training process at the global level. Therefore, buyers seek services that aid in the centralization of their learning processes through cloud-based platforms. SaaS provides a unified platform for learning where both the instructor and the learner can interact from remote locations and share information. This saves time and cost for buyers.

Buyers need to adopt renegotiation strategies with existing service providers to receive better quotes and discounts. Negotiation can take place based on the supplier's previous performance, performance of employees after the completion of L&D program or technology adoption by suppliers.

Blended learning solutions are a mix of instructor-led learning and web-based learning. These solutions aid buyers to reduce training implementation costs and enhance the effectiveness of training. Hence, buyers must collaborate with service providers that offer blended training solutions.
