E-commerce Fulfillment Services Procurement Cost and Supplier Intelligence
Labor cost, warehousing, and transportation are the major key cost components of this category. Businesses in the category, generally use a value-based pricing model wherein the price of the fulfillment service depends upon inventory storage cost (by cubic foot or by pallet), pick and pack cost (by order or by unit), receiving cost (by shipment or by unit), kitting cost (by the kit or by hour) and customer support cost (either a flat rate or by hour). In addition, many fulfillment service providers can charge an extra fee for added services. For instance, if the time frame set forth in the initial contract with the merchant for warehouse storage is exceeded, suppliers charge back to its clients.
The global industry is dominated by the Asia-Pacific region as the highest utilizer of fulfillment services. The region is anticipated to maintain its dominance throughout the projected timeframe due to the rising penetration of the Internet and the potential opportunities provided by the largely unexplored markets in the region (rural areas and second-tier cities). In addition, nations in the region such as South Korea, Japan, and China represent a significant share of global online sales and are among the top exporters of goods. Thus, the region's e-commerce sector's promising growth prospects are a key driver of the expansion of the regional market. Furthermore, ensuring e-commerce integration (What level of compatibility the provider will have with the processes and business applications), assessing geographic distance of fulfillment center (delivery times are shortened because of the reduced delivery distance and closer location of the order fulfillment center to the final consumer), and negotiating prices & terms with suppliers are some of the best sourcing practices considered in this category.
