A facilitated series of workshops designed specifically for your organization to segment the supply base and determine which suppliers are important. Then, based upon what makes them important, determine prioritized interventions to unlock optimum value and innovation, and reduce risk from these key suppliers. The workshops provide a guided journey to structuring Supplier Relationship Management and creating a new strategic roadmap for the short to medium term for the suppliers you will manage the closest.
Supplier Segmentation
Run with up to 16 of your most senior or experienced individuals who are analyzing spend data and supplier data, together with knowledge of what the company is trying to achieve. Initially, the workshop takes the team through a carefully facilitated process that applies a series of ‘passes’ to determine the important suppliers from different perspectives. Using our segmentation and supplier intervention mapping, important suppliers are systematically evaluated, then classified or ‘tiered’ to determine the types of intervention that are required for each. You will then create a prioritized roadmap for supplier projects for the next 18 months.
Determining and putting in place governance
Run with those in leadership positions or your most senior staff, work through the different dimensions of the governance required to enable and make Supplier Relationship Management a success using our 5P approach. This workshop enables you to develop the primary outputs and arrangements needed to implement Supplier Relationship Management including a full roadmap for the next 18 months.
