Global Computer Displays Procurement Trends
Discover the top international trends affecting procurement in the global Computer Displays market.
Warning Trends
Tariffs to escalate prices for electronics and computing equipment
- The Trump administration’s reciprocating tariffs, which will increase the tariff on all products imported from nearly all US trade partners, are set to take effect on August 7 and are likely to drive price increases across a wide range of sectors.
- The United States is highly reliant on imported electronics, communication equipment, and computing devices, having imported more than $472 billion worth of electronics in 2024, or about half of the total domestic supply. Starting August 7, imports from key computer and electronics producers such as China (54,0%), Japan (15.0%), South Korea (15.0%), Thailand (19.0%), Vietnam (20.0%), and Taiwan (20.0%) will be subject to new tariff rates. Trade deals for many countries are still being negotiated, and these rates are subject to change.
- For this reason, the US electronics industry is highly exposed to price increases and supply chain disruptions when the tariffs take effect. For example, the cost of iPhones, which are predominantly manufactured in China, could rise by as much as 43.0% in response to tariffs, according to projections by Rosenblatt Securities.
- Overall, the Yale Budget Lab anticipates tariffs will increase the average cost of computers and electronics by 18.7% in the short term.
- The tariffs exempt semiconductors, limiting the cost increases for domestic electronics manufacturers, but the lack of domestic electronics assembly capacity means that this exemption will have a limited effect.
Russian invasion of Ukraine is putting additional strain on US chip supply
- Until recently, the United States sourced nearly all of its neon gas (an essential material in the laser imprinting process to produce semiconductors) from Ukrainian and Russian producers. Previous conflicts between the two nations, specifically related to the Crimea conflict in 2014, resulted in a nearly 600.0% increase in the price of neon.
- The Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade announced in early June that it would be limiting neon gas exports as part of its sanctions against countries it views as unfriendly. This move will add to lead times and prices for neon.
- Downstream semiconductor manufacturers keep stockpiles of neon gas that have allowed them to continue manufacturing chips, though it is unknown how long these stockpiles will last. Semiconductor manufacturers will likely pay higher prices for neon gas outside Ukraine as global supplies dwindle.

Vendor & Supply Chain Analysis
Moderate vendor financial risk somewhat hurts buyer power by increasing the risk of a discontinuity of service, although low product specialization in this market helps mitigate this risk by ensuring buyers will have access to a variety of comparable suppliers.
Moderate market share concentration usually harms buyer power by reducing competition between vendors, but suppliers still compete heavily with one another on price due to the low level of product specialization and heavy import competition.
Moderate supply chain risk detracts from buyer power by increasing the risk of supply disruptions, price fluctuations, and the loss of a preferred supplier.
The United States is a net importer of computer displays, meaning it imports more displays than it exports. This adds risk for buyers as currency exchange rates and trade policies can effect the supply of computer displays entering the market.

Procurement Management KPIs for the Computer Displays Market
Managing vendor performance throughout the contract period is easier when tracking specific key performance indicators (KPIs). For example, buyers should monitor Average Response Time and Customer Effort Score. Buyers may experience better performance throughout their contracts if they establish service level agreements (SLAs) based on Support and other factors.
| KPI | Level of Importance (1-5) | Measurements | Key Considerations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Average Response Time |
|
Cumulative number of queries Cumulative response time |
The average response time is an important indicator of the responsiveness of a supplier’s customer support staff. A low average response time means that queries are being responded to quickly, which can help to minimize downtime. |
| Customer Effort Score |
|
Number of people surveyed Cumulative customer effort score |
The customer effort score assesses how much effort customers must put into getting their problems resolved. A low customer effort score signifies that it is relatively easy for customers to interact with support staff and get their problems resolved. |
