Selling Via Distributors and Other IntermediariesManufacturers can sell directly to businesses, and

they do so if the customers are large buyers. Frequently they use intermediaries to distribute

their products to a large number of smaller buyers.

The intermediaries buy products from many manufacturers and aggregate them into one catalog from which they sell to customers or to retailers.

4-51

Product CharacteristicsComplexity of description

Extent to which detailed drawings or specifications are required to describe the product

Higher the complexity, more information flow needed. Hence a tightly coupled e-Procurement model is better

Volume uncertainty Assessment of fluctuations in the demand and the

confidence placed in estimates of the demand. Higher the uncertainty, more flexible your e-

Procurement model should be. Hence e-Markets are preferred

Technological uncertainty Rate of changes in specifications and the probability

of future technological improvements in the product If Suppliers are Pro – Innovation than a tightly

coupled e-Procurement solution can be used as a buffer against uncertainty

4-52

Supply Market CharacteristicsTrust

Existing when one party has confidence in the exchange partner’s reliability and integrity

If trust is higher than a tightly coupled e-Procurement system will further enhance trust

Age of relationship Measured as the year of association e-Markets do not help in creating and sustaining longer age of

relationship

Competitive intent Extent to which there are potential suppliers to ensure

adequate competition e-Markets do not help if competitive intend is lower. Suppliers

can always collude to drive prices up.

Market variability Extent of market fragmentation and rate at which price and

player in the industry changes over time If market variability is high than e-Markets give better benefits

4-53

Adoption and Implementation Risks

Inherently carries more risk than ordinary information technology projects Adoption risk: whether business partners will join

the system or not Implementation risk: whether business partners

will be able to implement the system optimally

Subsidies such as training, software etc can be used to overcome these risks

Key Issues: How to provide subsidy To Whom it should be provided

4-54

Strategic Focus of eProcurement

Small Number of Items with Large VolumeTight Integration with back-end systemTight integration with partners along supply chain:

Direct connection, private exchangesPartnership based sourcing
