Maximizing Key Accounts
The relationship between suppliers and customers is characterized by closer cooperation. Historically ‘price’ was an excellent tool to play suppliers off against each other. Nowadays, relationships are increasingly based on informal partnerships. Vertical coordination and integration of customer and supplier are characteristic of the trend in the reduction of suppliers. The entanglement that results from this trend affects the entire organization, making the creation of added value the responsibility of the total supply chain.
