Why Purpose-Built Relationship Evaluation Tools Are the “Goldilocks Solution” for Supplier Management
Evaluating high-value supplier relationships is crucial, but generic or overly complex tools often fall short. Generic tools lack the depth needed to capture detailed metrics, forcing users into time-consuming manual analysis and missing key insights that drive improvement. Meanwhile, overly complex solutions can overwhelm without delivering practical value. To make a real impact, companies need a solution that balances simplicity with robust insights—helping them to streamline feedback cycles, drive strategic decisions, and unlock opportunities for supplier performance improvement.
