Purchasing managers tasked with buying gaskets and compression packing will want to consider the following:
How to enjoy the efficiencies that result from consolidating purchases through a single source of supply.
How to better manage the buying process through a contract of supply.
Buying Gaskets and Compression Packing: Challenges
When buying gaskets and compression packing, purchasing managers are tasked with sourcing suppliers of a particular type of gasket or compression packing. Because these transactions often involve seeking reliable yet cost-effective sources of supply, the search time and costs can be significant.
The wide variety of gaskets and compression packing available in the marketplace further complicates the purchasing process. Often, purchasing personnel have to spend considerable time dealing with multiple suppliers for the provision of these products. This can add significant overhead to the purchasing process.
Larger enterprises, and those with multiple sites, who are regularly buying gaskets and compression packing may also prefer to transact purchases through a long-term contract of supply with a single vendor. This allows buyers to enjoy benefits such as more predictable pricing, assured provisioning, and less purchasing administration.
