Land Preparation Services Procurement Category Market Research Report from IBISWorld Has Been Updated
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) October 07, 2014 -- IBISWorld estimates that land preparation services have a buyer power score of 3.4 out of 5. This score is indicative of moderate buyer power in the market. Over the three years to 2014, the rebounding US economy has led to overall renewed demand for mining, construction and agriculture operations, says IBISWorld analyst Agiimaa Kruchkin. Demand in these sectors, in turn, has fueled an upward trend in prices for land preparation services, limiting buyer power. In addition, a moderate level of specialization and the low availability of substitutes have further hampered buyer power. At the same time, the highly fragmented nature of the market has warranted a wide selection of service providers to choose from, which has aided buyer power to an extent.
There is a wide range in price for land preparation services, which makes it challenging for buyers to budget their costs. Nevertheless, the need for land preparation services is anticipated to remain stable over the next three years due to consistent demand from the mining, agriculture and construction sectors, continues Kruchkin. The demand growth has been favorable for suppliers, and prices are expected to continue rising in the three years through 2017.
The supply chain for vendors of land preparation services poses moderate risk for buyers, with some risk stemming from price fluctuations for various inputs, such as excavation machinery. However, in the three years to 2017, buyers are not expected to face a high degree of risk with the supply chain, assuming that demand remains stable. Moreover, the diversification of land preparation services across several markets, including agriculture, has caused vendor financial risk to decline due to suppliers' reduced reliance on a single market, leading to a moderate level of risk overall. Buyers should determine the need and frequency for land preparation services and then enroll in contracts to help mitigate long-term costs and rising prices.
