Warning Trends


Public sector demand slumps as the government enters shutdown

  • On October 1, the US federal government entered a shutdown after negotiations for a new appropriations bill failed.
  • During a government shutdown, essential federal government operations, such as law enforcement, air-traffic control, and social security, persist, while nonessential operations are paused and workers involved in these operations are furloughed. Thus, the current shutdown is expected to result in 750,000 federal workers being furloughed, representing a $400 million reduction in daily expenditure by the federal government.
  • This significant reduction in federal spending and operations will affect the entire US economy, weakening aggregate demand and slowing economic growth. For example, the 35-day government shutdown in Q1, 2019, reduced aggregate demand in both the public and private sectors, resulting in a 0.2% reduction in GDP growth that quarter.
  • The effects of the shutdown are likely to be most acute in markets where the public sector is a major buyer segment, weakening demand and increasing average vendor risk by destabilizing important revenue streams.
  • As negotiations for a new appropriations bill to reopen the government remain ongoing, ProcurementIQ will continue to monitor the situation and update this story with the latest information.

Reciprocal tariffs to increase prices and supply chain risk in the medical equipment industry

  • The Trump administration’s reciprocal tariffs, which impose increased general tariffs on all products imported from most nations, are set to take effect on August 7 after rates were finalized on August 1.
  • The US medical equipment industry is highly reliant on imported products, with medical equipment imports totaling $122 billion in 2024, or about 19.2% of the total market supply.
  • The European Union, Mexico, and China are key importers of medical equipment, accounting for 28.1%, 11.0%, and 9.6% of total medical equipment imports, respectively.
  • Thus, the 15.0%, 25.0%, and 54.0% tariffs on imports from the European Union, Mexico, and China will significantly increase the prices of medical equipment. Steel and aluminum imports, common materials in medical equipment manufacturing, also currently face 50.0% tariffs when imported from any nation other than the United Kingdom.
  • The Yale Budget Lab projects that key inputs for medical equipment, such as electronic components, metals, plastic, and rubber, will increase in price by 10.4% to 37.6% due to tariffs, indicating domestic producers will face sharp cost increases as well.

Cost Analysis - Total Cost of Ownership for Medical Equipment Leasing

Total cost of ownership is Low in the Medical Equipment Leasing market. The average cost of ownership differs depending on the contract but generally includes costs negotiated before the contract begins, costs billed during the contract period and unforeseen costs. For example, unforeseen costs in the form of Hidden Fees may raise the total cost of ownership unexpectedly.

Negotiated Before

Financing

Pricing for medical equipment leasing will need to be discussed prior to the start of their service to determine the products needed for what length of time the products will be leases for. Medical equipment is typically leased anywhere from 12-84 months of service.

Billed During

Support

Due to the complexity of medical supplies, such as imaging equipment, buyers may require installation services and on-the-job training for their personnel, which can require extensive financial, human and physical resources. In order to differentiate themselves from competitors, a growing number of leasing firms have begun to offer different value-added services, including on-the-job training.

Unforeseen

Hidden Fees

Some potential hidden costs include fees and charges associated with delivery and pickup, damage, cleanup and deposit, as well as additional charges incurred when the equipment is returned dirty or stained. Additionally, buyers should be aware of the deposits that most leasing firms require and must have sufficient finances to cover the deposit because it will be held until the equipment is returned.

Being a net importer can restrict buyer power and reduce their ability to dictate terms and conditions in procurement transactions, and will have less control over pricing, quality, and availability of the goods or services they need.
