Procurement’s “Long Tail” - Supplier Programs « Business & Technology Nexus

Procurement’s “Long Tail” - Supplier Programs « Business & Technology Nexus: "Long-held beliefs in Procurement tie back to simple concepts. Know who you buy from. Negotiate tough but fair. Do business with as many different suppliers as you need, but not 1 more than that.
