Is there a link with your company’s strategy ? • Has the supplier the right capacity and motivation to implement cost reduction plans ? • What is the level of risk in terms of dependency ? • Technological fit : • Is the technology / process of the supplier compatible with your current needs? Future needs? • Cultural fit : • Is the supplier’s culture fitting yours? Are there serious communication issues? Is its organization adapted to the type of relations you want to develop with him? • Is the management of this supplier a difficult task for your company ? B.GAUCLERE M2 / NEGOCIA 2012
