GET FREE SAMPLEEcosystem of the global Surface Boxes category is intertwined with the larger parent market of Engineering Components. Our category definition describes that overall Engineering Components market includes all spend related to the provision of components related to the operation of industrial and engineering services, including electrical components, machine parts, manufacturing components and structural products.
The market for Engineering Components and its sub-segments such as Surface Boxes are at an interesting intersection. Regulatory guidance on data protection and increasing concern over cybersecurity have increased the costs for suppliers as they incur additional spend on compliance and security. These additional costs have a potential to drive marginal increase in prices across the key geographies.Suppliers of Surface Boxes are moving up the value chain - both organically as well as through M&As. Their portfolios are increasingly being diversified with the objective of offering integrated solutions that go beyond just Surface Boxes. Even buyers are engaging vendors who can act as a one-stop solution provider across their geographic footprint. Such strategic engagements can help buyers with savings associated with economies of scale and management of a much smaller supplier base.Customers are expecting service and experience levels which are at par with what ecommerce and consumer sectors of today offer. Moreover, competition keeps intensifying and demand and supply dynamics keep shifting.Trends like these and many others discussed in this report are necessitating a relook at the way Surface Boxes is procured and the procurement cost saving opportunities that exist.
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 Surface Boxes. To help quick decision making, this report advises on several procurement best practices that have worked well for category managers. For example, Competitive bidding as a cost optimization tool is extremely potent but should be carefully deployed only when there is no significant differentiation among Surface Boxes suppliers.Buyers should engage with suppliers that have adopted a global delivery model as it reduces buyers' risk. In this model, any disaster/emergency at any operating facility of supplier will result in the work being transferred to a different facility, thereby ensuring continuity of the project and reduced risk for buyers. This model also provides buyers access to skilled labor from across the globe, thereby improving the quality of engineering products provided by the supplier.Buyers must have a clear understanding of the subcontracting policies, if any, of Surface Boxes suppliers. Factors such as cost incurred, service quality, adherence to timelines, and regulatory compliance of subcontractors employed by suppliers should be carefully assessed prior to engagement.
