This PPT slide, part of the 24-slide Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) - Supplier Segmentation PowerPoint presentation, outlines a Supplier Segmentation Framework that is crucial for organizations aiming to enhance their supplier relationships. It emphasizes the importance of setting clear objectives that address specific challenges such as reducing inconsistencies, improving customer service, and minimizing supply risk. The text suggests that senior management must translate broad business objectives into actionable strategies at the business-unit and individual function levels.
The framework is structured around 3 critical phases, although the slide does not detail these phases. It implies that effective segmentation requires a tailored approach based on the unique needs of the organization. The slide also highlights that if the goal is to reduce non-conformance, the focus should be on suppliers that can help achieve this, even if their cost performance is not the best.
On the right side, the slide presents various dimensions for supplier segmentation, including Service Levels, Quality, Innovation, Cost Management, and Criticality. These dimensions are essential for evaluating suppliers against specific commodity requirements, which also include similar categories. This dual approach enables organizations to assess suppliers not just on cost, but on their overall contribution to the business objectives.
The final note reinforces that aligning enterprise business objectives with effective supplier segmentation is vital for achieving operational excellence. This framework can serve as a roadmap for organizations looking to optimize their supplier relationships and drive better performance outcomes.
