We have stressed this in our blogs multiple times. There is no other solution to having an effective purchasing cycle but maintaining strong relationships with suppliers. Segmenting suppliers as strategic and non-strategic can assist your organization in prioritizing them based on importance. The strategic suppliers are the ones who add value and are with you in the long run. Whereas, non-strategic suppliers can be nurtured over time which can only happen with patience and perseverance.
