This PPT slide, part of the 24-slide Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) - Supplier Segmentation PowerPoint presentation, presents a detailed segmentation analysis of suppliers, categorizing them into 6 distinct profiles based on their capabilities and fit to client commodities. Each profile is defined by various attributes including innovation, quality, reliability, cost management, and criticality.
The "Alliance" segment showcases suppliers with strong capabilities across all 4 areas, indicating a high fit for the commodities they supply and a significant criticality to the business. This suggests that these suppliers are essential partners, contributing positively to strategic objectives.
The "Performance" category reflects suppliers that possess adequate reliability and quality, with strong capabilities in either cost or innovation. Their fit is limited to a few commodities, and their criticality is assessed as low. This indicates that while they may be reliable, they are not pivotal to the overall supply chain.
The "High Potential" segment identifies suppliers with 2 to 3 strong capabilities, particularly in reliability and quality. They exhibit a high criticality and fit across all areas, suggesting they hold promise for future strategic partnerships.
The "Base" category represents suppliers with average capabilities in all areas, indicating a low fit to commodity requirements and low criticality to the business. This suggests they are not essential, but may still provide value.
The "Critical" segment describes suppliers with low to average capabilities, particularly in reliability and quality. Their fit to commodity requirements is low, yet they have high criticality based on the level of business they support.
Finally, the "Low Capability" segment highlights suppliers with consistently low capabilities across all areas, indicating minimal criticality to the business. Understanding these profiles is crucial for optimizing supplier relationships and enhancing overall value creation.
