This PowerPoint presentation identifies some key findings regarding Direct Material Procurement and Sourcing:
• Key success criteria of direct procurement are on-time delivery and high-quality, not low costs
• To achieve this, close relationships with the suppliers are necessary that need to be built up from the early product development phase onwards
• However, relationships with direct material suppliers are complex and hence not obvious to handle
• Direct material procurement begins with the early stage of product development and is of strategic importance throughout the product lifecycle
• OEMs select, monitor and control suppliers beyond their first tier suppliers and focus besides contract manufacturers in particular on core component manufacturers
• Throughout the production phase an open exchange of information with suppliers is the key success factor to manage the supply chain
Organizations engage in Direct Material Procurement initiatives for a variety of reasons—foremost, being realizing significant cost reductions.
