Supplier Management Program (SMP)
As a company develops into a capable globalcompetitor, it often restructures its supply baseto optimize competitive advantage. Theprimary focus of the restructuring effort shouldbe on reduction of total cost, not purchaseprice. In addition to reducing total cost,improvements in supply base service levels,quality, reliability, and access to technology arealso achievement goals.
Excerpt from HCM white paper series, Supplier Management Programs

“We strive for nothing less than excellence in quality.It may take time to obtain the level of quality werequire, but we expect our supplier’s goal to be forcontinual improvement. We won’t accept anyoneremaining at status quo if the level of quality is lessthan perfect.”

Segmentation ModelsA segmentation model needs to be developed to uniquely address each companies businessimperatives. Many models have been created to address differentiating factions, such as:
Growth-Focused: Relationships able to drive growth through innovation and fund growththrough cost cutting.Three Dimensional: Initial segmentation used to allocate scarce resources, second dimensionis to determine relationship type and the third dimension is to tailor a relationship approachneeded to maximize results.Risk Management: Targeted approaches addressing specific/potential risk drivers.Multi-Dimensional: Segmentation created using multiple variables including spend,relationship, and product complexity.Potential-Based: Look towards large, aligned suppliers for potential strategic advantage.Product Development: Relationships leading to development of commercially viabletechnology.Performance Based: Clear decision rules around supplier segment mobilityMaterial Based: Commodity-based tiering places suppliers according to their product's life cycleand strategic value.Sourcing Process Step: Used as a standard opportunity analysis step in each strategicsourcing initiative

Selection ConsiderationsBuild and maintain internal alignment. Before entering a partnership, identify stakeholders and involve them. Evaluate the “relationship fit”. Look beyond traditional buyer-supplier relationship to how potential partners fit strategically and financially with your company.Build a strong relationship while negotiating an optimal deal. Success is difficult to achieve if the relationship is adversarial.Establish common ground rules, processes and protocols.Have dedicated Alliance Managers to include responsibility of managing day-to-day relationship issues, not just operations and business strategies.Encourage collaboration in conflict resolution, negotiation, problem solving, and conducting difficult conversations. A collaborative mindset needs to be established at the corporate level so problems are mutually addressed, not framed as “ours” or “theirs”.Identify and discuss multiple Supplier relationships. Sometimes a partner is also a competitor, customer and/or supplier so determine the breadth of the relationship and manage accordingly.Periodically review the health of the alliance by conducting joint reviews to assess business goals and the quality of the working relationship.Identify and manage change. Significant business changes, such as executive moves, organization restructuring, or shifts in competitive or regulatory environment is inevitable. Plan for how changes will be communicated and managed.

Supplier Risk Management
The leaner and more integrated supplychains become, the more likely it is thatuncertainties, dynamics and accidents in onelink will affect other links in the chain.
Excerpt from HCM white paper series, Supplier Management Programs
Accurate Facts Lead to Accurate Decisions.Copyright 2010 HCM Works Inc.
Risk Management StrategyThe concept of supplier risk management is still relatively new, as business strategies go. But in the era of global sourcing and volatile markets, supplier risk management is rapidly becoming every bit as necessary to global supply chains as in-house corporate risk management.
Today’s supply chains face risks from many factors, including:Increased globalization through outsourcing, which elongates end-to-end supply chainsAdditional regulatory compliance imposed by government entities, further complicating international tradeIncreased levels of economic uncertainty, which create additional variability in demand and supply and make it more difficult to accomplish demand supply balancingShorter product lifecycles and rapid rates of technology change, which increase inventory obsolescenceDemanding customers who have created additional time-to-market pressures by requiring better on-time delivery, order fill rates and overall service level efficiencies.Supply side capacity constraints, making it more difficult to meet demand requirements.Natural disasters and external environmental events, which can wreak havoc on global supply chains.Potential regulatory risks posed from supply chain practices associated with future regulatory non-compliance, e.g. environmental regulation changes

Risk Management Models1. Deterministic analytical models, which include mathematical programming
models (e.g. linear, nonlinear, integer, dynamic programming). Applications tosupply chain include scheduling production, distribution planning, raw materialsourcing, facility location, inventory level setting, replenishment timing andorder quantity specification, and resource balancing.
2. Stochastic analytical models, where at least one of the variables involvesuncertainty, and is assumed to follow a particular probability distribution.Examples of supply chain applications include inventory and productionmanagement problems, where demand and yield are represented as randomvariables respectively.
3. Economic models, which tend to be focused on buyer-supplier relationships.These models have a traditional base in determining the financial risks toeither sellers or buyers, given various assumptions.
4. Simulation models, which are (usually) data driven representations facilitatedby sampling from specified probability distributions.

Metrics Management
One of the key goals of businesses todayis the collection and delivery of themetrics decision makers need to maketimely, informed and well-reasonedchoices. The quality of these metricsdepends on three factors: accuracy,timeliness and presentation.

Metrics DeliveryLinkage Between Goals and Metrics: Fundamental to a successful performance measurement system is a foundation in measurable goals that are tightly linked to the most critical corporate objectives.
Controllable and Measurable Metrics: Setting clear performance targets for each metric gives owners an unambiguous achievement standard with a high level of internal accountability by providing instant, granular visibility into its effectiveness.
Individual Accountability: When an individual is assigned responsibility for each metric, the notion of accountability moves from theory to practice. With direct visibility into individual performance (and potential implications for linked compensation), incentives are aligned to force problem ownership and speedy resolution.
Forced Trend Analysis: Forcing regular data-based assessments of progress against a suite of metrics helps detect emerging challenges in a timely fashion, rather than relying on intuition or deferring to anecdotal explanations of “what happened last year.” Simultaneously, this approach enables the function to provide a cogent and holistic situational assessment of marketing performance to the wider organization at any given time.

Demand Planning
Accurate Facts Lead to Accurate Decisions.Copyright 2010 HCM Works Inc.
Demand management is a more proactive approach than its predecessors – relying on highly sophisticated quantitative analytics and advanced modeling techniques to preset tolerance levels, predict and pinpoint problem areas, monitor and adjust strategies dynamically, and achieve real-time visibility and synergy across all channels.
Some of the considerations for a comprehensive demand management solution include:
Forecast only the products and components that make sense from a profit and/or strategic perspective Utilize best-of-breed statistical forecasting techniquesPerform real-time data synchronization.
Employ automated, closed-loop, industry-specific workflows based on best practices

"It's interesting that the moretechnically sophisticated weget, the more it is aboutenabling relationships. Win-win is replacing the old idea ofbeating up your suppliers. Youcan't cost-cut yourself intoprosperity.“
Carol Park, VP of Industry Strategy for PeopleSoft/Oracle Vantage Partners conducted a survey with 115 procurement
professionals responding when asked how much more value(in terms of cost savings, innovation, quality, etc.) is deliveredby suppliers with whom a company has a strong workingrelationship than by suppliers with whom the company has apoor working relationship. Almost half of the respondents saidthat strong working relationships deliver at least 50%greater value than poor ones.
Accenture’s research shows thatcompanies who transform theirbusinesses during a recessionwill see sustainable advantageswhen the economy improves.
Industry trends from respected research companies, such asAccenture, Vantage Partners and Ernst & Young havedocumented via industry surveys that the resulting cost savingscan be as great as 40%.
Even more compelling, is these same survey results haveconfirmed that effective implementation of these programscreate sustained cost savings due to the trulytransformational design of well implemented suppliermanagement program.
