Message to Potential Suppliers
Our message is quite simple: Be creative. We encourage suppliers to use strategies that have proven to work in the past as well as coming up with your own.
For indirects that means that you focus on the added value that you provide: unsurpassed customer service, proven processes, and technology tools that are used.
For directs, you can focus on the entire supply chain, from the supplier’s supplier all the way to the customers. |
