The pricing and cost analysis helps in deriving and forecasting the actual cost of products or services over the forecast period. It considers all the cost components and provides a competitive edge during supplier negotiations. Moreover, the outcome helps procurement leaders understand detailed and fact-based cost drivers for the category.

In this Waste Management procurement intelligence report, we have estimated the key cost components which includes machineries & equipment, labor, rent & utilities, logistics, and maintenance & repair, and other costs. Other costs can be further bifurcated into administrative expenses, depreciation, repayment of loan, insurance, and regulatory certifications.

Waste Management companies often use one of many pricing structures:

a)       A prominent pricing structure used in this category is a fixed fee-for-service model which guarantees that a service provider will receive the approved sum of money agreed in the contract and have a predetermined pricing for the services indicated.

b)      Second pricing structure used in this category is weight-based or volume-based pricing, wherein customers are charged based on the weight or volume of waste to be processed or recycled.

c)       Lastly, a hybrid pricing model is also used, which comprises of a fixed base fee and an additional variable fee depending on the waste volume.

In this category, the average salary in the US for Janitors is USD 25,000 - USD 30,000 per year, and the average salary for Senior Operations Managers is USD 110,000 - USD 130,000 per year.

Every organization and its procurement team look forward to negotiating the best deal while procuring a set of products or subscribing to services. Rate benchmarking involves price/cost comparison of more than one set of products/services to analyze the most efficient combination that can potentially help the procurement team in getting the optimum rate.

The rates for this category are structured based on the scope and location of engagement, type of service, and type of pricing model. Additionally, the rates may vary based on the length of the contract. Long-term contracts are beneficial to both parties by providing security, stability, dedicated support, and strong partnerships.

Labor cost is one of the key components of the total incurred costs while offering a product or service. Therefore, an organization must decide on whether the focus category should be retained in-house or outsourced if the organization is providing its products or services at competitive prices. If the organization decides in favor of outsourcing, it must understand the difference in the salary structures of suppliers before selecting a supplier and formulating a negotiation strategy.
