KEY PROCUREMENT INSIGHTS COVERED

Strategic Sourcing Guide to Specialty Tubing Procurement

Overview

A changing ecosystem within the Medical and Surgical Consumables market also affects the procurement process, cost dynamics and supplier attractiveness for the buyers of Specialty Tubing. Despite increasing costs on almost all fronts, suppliers are resisting a drastic price increase due to intense competition where market players are willing to increase their market share at the cost of profitability. Therefore, buyers can expect pricing status quo in most cases, or only negligible to marginal price increases in some cases.

Rapid growth in the biosimilar and biologics market and global focus on gene therapy studies for rare diseases have resulted in an increased spend within the broader industry.

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 Specialty Tubing. 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.

Specialty Tubing Procurement Best Practices

The report discusses in detail the best practices that have served well the category managers responsible for Specialty Tubing procurement.

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.

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.

Category managers must ensure that they have clearly identified and listed down potential negotiation levers to maximize the value of their category spend before entering into contract-related discussions with service providers. Common negotiation levers to maximize value include deadlines, terms related to payments, (including fees, expenses, and payment timelines) and assistance required from the buyer's organization.

Risks in Specialty Tubing procurement

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


  • 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
  • Suppliers are exposed to the risk of fluctuating prices of key inputs. This impacts the product price as suppliers would have to increase product price to maintain contribution margins
  • With rapidly evolving technology, suppliers are faced with the risk of technological obsolescence. Obsolete technology would not only deter adoption within the buyers' organization but could also result in inefficient process outputs
