Problem Statement
Sourcing managers strive to attract a broad set of existing and new suppliers for their sourcing events. This ensures a stable inflow of supply market innovations, while keeping competitive pressure high on supplier relationships.
Inefficient sourcing processes can however discourage suppliers from submitting their bid and thus limit the chance to award the most suitable supplier in the market, matching the business requirements of the sourcing event.
