One of the procurement best practices for buyers is to include yearly renewal terms as a part of long-term contracts with HDPE suppliers. This renewal term allows the buyers to negotiate procurement-related costs based on annual events in the industry, thereby having an impact on the HDPE supplier. For instance, increase in competition, the decline in raw material prices, and fluctuations in demand-supply can increase the negotiating opportunity for the buyers.
