rthree.com Marketing Procurement: Managing the Agency Dynamic

Competitive sourcing is different in a marketing context. Often, what is being purchased is one of a kind and does not have reasonable substitutes. Each agency pitch is different and the creative content between agencies is not necessarily comparable.

1 LEARN HOW AGENCIES REALLY WORK Procurement departments often use many different agencies or suppliers. Managing these agency and supplier relationships is a core function for procurement teams and doing so successfully remains a significant challenge. About 70% of procurement teams manage up to twenty agencies or suppliers, and 30% manage even more than that. In order to manage successfully, procurement teams need to have a robust strategy to manage and assess their suppliers and streamline the roster, if necessary.

SCHEDULE AUDITS TO ENSURE FINANCIAL AND 2 PROCESS TRANSPARENCY

Reducing the operational costs involved with working with a (potentially) large base of suppliers and agencies is an important objective for marketing procurement teams. Therefore, having a transparent financial relationship with agencies is vital.

Nearly 60% of procurement teams consider themselves to have true financial transparency in their agency and supplier relationships. Regular auditing is the key to understanding what agency and suppliers are doing and where your money is going. A professional financial audit every three years is recommended and gives all parties insight into their processes and helps evaluate agencies and suppliers on the question of value vs. price.
