AMR Analyst Webinar on Supplier Performance Management
Improve Supplier Quality and Mitigate Supply Chain Risks through Supplier Performance Management

Favorites

In the economic downturn, companies are focusing on techniques to improve profit margin by reducing costs associated with supply chain operations and procurement processes. Even a minor breakdown in the supply chain or a slight deviation from quality specifications can increase costs, hurt sales and reduce profitability.

Supplier performance management can be used as a strategic tool for ensuring efficiency in supply chain and procurement process for continuous improvement.

Effective supplier performance management enables companies to use best practices and provides a systematic process to manage supplier scorecards, key performance indicators (KPIs), quality metrics, and risk assessments and mitigation to improve quality and manage risk in the supply chain. Join us for a complimentary webcast by MetricStream and AMR Research and learn how to:

Enable integrated supplier performance and scorecards for multiple attributes (cost, quality, innovation, responsiveness)
Integrate supplier nonconformance and corrective actions (SCAR) with supplier performance
Implement cost recovery and chargeback programs to reduce cost of poor quality
Enable suppliers to view and respond to performance and quality issues
Monitor SLA and contract compliance based on KPIs
Identify and mitigate supply chain risks and uncover hidden opportunities
Conduct ongoing supplier audits, self-assessments, surveys and inspections
Implement a supplier governance system that integrates supplier performance with supplier quality and supplier risks to provide a closed-loop system to mitigate supplier chain risks while improving supplier performance and quality.
