A proposito di questo titolo
 Lucas and Luna sit down each episode to dissect the real mechanics of procurement and B2B purchasing — not the textbook theory, but how sourcing managers actually navigate supplier risk, cost volatility, and long-term contracts. Lucas brings the journalist's eye for verifiable data: what the latest PMI numbers mean for lead times, how tariff shifts alter sourcing strategies, and why a single supplier default can ripple through a supply chain. Luna pushes back with the practitioner's questions: How do you negotiate with a monopoly supplier? When does 'just-in-time' become 'just-in-case'? They walk through named case studies — from automotive sector chip allocations to hospital group PPE procurement — always grounded in the spreadsheet, not the slogan. The listener is the procurement officer, the VP of supply chain, or the startup founder who suddenly realizes they need to buy steel or servers. No buzzwords, no fluff — just the tension between cost optimization and resilience. Can you ever really de-risk a supply chain, or is every purchase just a managed bet? #Procurement #B2BPurchasing #SupplyChain #SourcingStrategy #SupplierManagement #CostOptimization #RiskManagement #Logistics #VendorSelection #ContractNegotiation #InventoryManagement #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Careers #Operations #Manufacturing #GlobalTrade Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo© 2026 Fexingo.

  • Why Buyers Trust Supplier Relationships Over Lowest Price

    Why Buyers Trust Supplier Relationships Over Lowest Price
    Nov 13 2026
    In this episode of The Buyer's Side, Lucas and Luna explore the quiet shift in B2B procurement where relational capital is becoming more valuable than transactional savings. We look at how companies like Microsoft are embedding suppliers into their innovation pipelines, turning vendor management from a cost-center function into a strategic growth engine. The hosts discuss the specific mechanics of 'co-development' agreements, the hidden costs of supplier churn, and why top-tier buyers are willing to pay a premium for reliability and shared risk. If you are responsible for sourcing decisions or supply chain resilience, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on building long-term partnerships rather than just chasing discounts. #ProcurementStrategy #SupplierRelationships #B2BPurchasing #SupplyChainResilience #VendorManagement #CoDevelopment #RelationalCapital #StrategicSourcing #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #ProcurementTrends #SupplierDiversity #RiskMitigation #CostOfChurn #InnovationPartnerships #SustainableSourcing #ContractNegotiation #SupplyChainTech Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How Buyers Negotiate Value Over Volume

    How Buyers Negotiate Value Over Volume
    Nov 12 2026
    Procurement teams are shifting from volume-based discounts to value-based pricing, where suppliers earn higher margins by solving specific operational problems. We examine how a mid-sized industrial manufacturer negotiated a deal with a raw material supplier that tied price reductions to waste reduction metrics rather than purchase quantity. This approach aligns incentives and improves long-term profitability for both parties. Learn how to structure contracts that reward efficiency and innovation, moving beyond the traditional zero-sum game of procurement negotiations. #ProcurementStrategy #B2BNegotiation #ValueBasedPricing #SupplierPartnerships #ContractNegotiation #SupplyChainEfficiency #IndustrialManufacturing #CostReduction #OperationalExcellence #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #LucasAndLuna #ProcurementTrends #SourcingStrategy #RiskManagement #LongTermAgreements #PerformanceMetrics #BusinessFinance Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How Procurement Teams Negotiate Without Price

    How Procurement Teams Negotiate Without Price
    Nov 11 2026
    In a market where supplier pricing is sticky and discounts are disappearing, procurement leaders are shifting their leverage from cost reduction to commercial flexibility. This episode explores how buyers at major industrial firms use non-price terms—like payment net extensions, inventory consignment models, and joint forecasting commitments—to extract real value without triggering price hikes. We break down the specific mechanics of negotiating payment terms from thirty days to sixty days, why suppliers accept these trades, and how this approach protects margins when input costs fluctuate. Lucas and Luna examine the hidden balance sheet impact of extended payables and discuss why modern sourcing teams are treating working capital as the new currency of negotiation. #ProcurementStrategy #B2BNegotiation #WorkingCapital #SupplyChainFinance #SupplierRelationships #CommercialTerms #PaymentNet30 #InventoryConsignment #CostReduction #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #ProcurementTrends #B2BPurchasing #VendorManagement #CashFlowOptimization #SourcingDecisions #CorporateFinance #OperationalExcellence Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
