What is Supplier Relationship Management?
Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) refers to the proactive management of a continuing business relationship in order to ensure an organization’s competitive advantage. Once a team has hired a supplier, there is a constant need to maintain balance and control in the relationship to ensure the benefits of the agreement are delivered.
SRM is key in creating strong relationships with suppliers from a customer perspective, which can result in cross category supplier measurement, reactive and proactive exercises for risk mitigation, and knowledge and innovation can be shared.
