Insights into the market pricing trends
-
An increase in the mining of gypsum will result in a steady decline in the price of this commodity which will also impact the price of building materials. The price growth was lesser in the first quarter of this year than compared to the last year’s growth.
- The prevalence of protectionist trade policies pertaining to a majority of raw materials will propel the manufacturing costs of building materials that include costs of raw materials such as silica, pet coke, and limestone. This will have an inflationary impact on the procurement price for buyers.
Insights into the supply market that will have potential impacts on your procurement strategy
- Countries like China, India, and the US have a higher concentration of building materials suppliers, particularly of the cement suppliers. Such a high concentration is attributed to the significant availability of raw materials, such as limestone, chalk, and clay, and companies with high annual production capacity.
- Buyers tend to segregate the supply pool based on annual production capacity, type of materials, supplier location, ability to provide dedicated production capacity, and logistical capabilities, among other factors. This rationalization of the supply base will allow buyers to minimize a significant amount of transaction costs and reduce management efforts toward supplier management.
