The Opportunity
It is essential to “measure what you manage”. With that in mind, one of the most important aspects of retail today is managing the relationships with suppliers.
Clarity of expectations and performance versus those expectations is essential in jointly leveraging capabilities of both parties to achieve the desired results.
A balanced Supplier Scorecard is an essential element in achieving that desired transparency of performance results.
