What is Supplier Management?
In the modern business environment, organizations rely heavily on a complex network of vendors and suppliers to ensure their success. While these networks can contribute greatly to your organization achieving its strategic goals, they can also introduce considerable risk to your organization.
With this ever-growing dependency on these networks and the increase in risk, this means the traditional methods of onboarding, assessing, and managing these entities with disparate or manual processes no longer meet the expectations of stakeholders and customers, as well as failing to meet the requirements of auditors and regulators in many cases.
It is critical for organizations to have processes for onboarding, assessing, and monitoring their supply bases to optimize their performance and reduce the risks to their organization.
Suppliers are the key to it all.
Collaborate with them to get accurate information, assess supplier risk and improve performance while informing all procurement activities.
