Supply Chain Management
Single SourcingAdvantages Potentially better quality because
more SQA possibilities. Strong relationships Greater dependency encourages
more commitment and effort. Better communication. Easier to cooperate on new
product/service development. More scale economies. Higher confidentiality.Disadvantages More vulnerable to disruption if a
failure to supply occurs. Individual supplier more affected
by volume fluctuations. Supplier might exert upward
pressure on prices if no alternative supplier is available.
Multi-sourcingAdvantages Purchaser can drive price down by
competitive tendering. Can switch sources in case of
supply failure. Wide sources of knowledge and
expertise to tap.
Disadvantages Difficult to encourage commitment
by supplier. Less easy to develop effective
SQA. More effort needed to
communicate. Suppliers less likely to invest in
new processes. More difficult to obtain scale
economies.

Negotiation
Supply Chain Management
Negotiation Definition and Comments: “The process whereby two or more parties decide what each will give and take in
anExchange between them.” (Lysons & Farrinton)
“Negotiation is the process by which we search for terms to obtain what we want from
somebody who wants something from us.” (Total Success Training) “Negotiating is a trading game. There is only one way to play the game; that is to
trade whatwe want from somebody else for what they want from us. The best way of being
able to do this is to know what we want and what we are prepared to give to get it.” (Total
success Training) “Negotiation is discussing or bargaining in order to reach agreement.”
(Owen)
Supply Chain Management
Negotiation (What it isn’t): • Negotiation is not selling.• Negotiation is not ‘giving in’ or conceding.
(Owen)
Supply Chain Management
Types of negotiation:
Adversarial and Collaborative Adversarial Negotiation (distributive or win-losenegotiation)Is an approach in which the focus is on ‘positions’
staked out by the participants and the assumption is that every time one party wins, the other loses, so, as a result the other party is regarded as an adversary (opponent).
(Lysons & Farrington)
Supply Chain Management
Collaborative Negotiation (integrative or win-win negotiation)
Is an approach in which the assumption is that, by means of creative problem solving, one or both parties can gain without the other having to lose and, as the other party is regarded as a collaborator rather than an adversary, the participants may be more willing to share concerns, ideas and expectations than would otherwise be the case.
(Lysons & Farrington)
Supply Chain Management
Makeor
Buy?
Supply Chain Management
Why would we buy something(items, components, services)
when we could provide it ourselves?
Supply Chain Management
Reasons to buy:-The unit cost is cheaper,-We don't use it enough,-We don't have space,-We don't understand the technology,-We don't have the skill,-It's not our core business/expertise,-It's expensive to set up the process,
Supply Chain Management
Reasons to provide in-house:- The unit cost is cheaper,- It's critical to the business,- Retain specialist knowledge/skills,-We have control over the supply,- Quality issues are critical,- No suitable supplier,- It's part of our core business/expertise,
