Supplier Management

A small error or deficiency in your supply chain can be unforgiving in today’s market. Suppliers appear qualified at first but then fail to deliver and, more importantly, fail to sustain the needed quality over time. On the other hand, some suppliers may have the desired capabilities for your projects but are inconsistent in their performance related to quality, delivery time and cost. In both cases, switching suppliers can be very costly, especially when money and resources have been invested in the project. What other option do you have when compromised quality and delivery time are not acceptable?
