Supplier Intelligence
Supply chain management has been one of the key propellants of increase in business productivity in the last few years. After labor, cost of
purchased materials and services is often the largest cost component. Companies have reduced supply chain costs significantly by
sharply cutting the number of suppliers to a few 'good' suppliers.
The thrust of supplier intelligence is to be able to identify a good
supplier. Supplier references and performance metrics such as on-time delivery and purchase costs only tell part of the story. Good suppliers do a lot more: become a true partner; deliver innovation; provide
market intelligence; and provide superior service. These are the attributes that cannot be measured from conventional databases.
Smart organizations greatly value good suppliers and therefore continually gather intelligence about supplier
performance through internal and external assessment.
Our supplier intelligence tools provide a wealth of intelligence on who to measure, what to measure and how to measure.
Examples of some of our Supplier Intelligence applications are:
| - | Supplier Performance |
| - | Supplier as a Partner |
| - | Supplier Rankings |
