we have talked about possible cost saving in purchasing in our team. we also think it would be a good idea to discuss this in more detail. we feel there would be a lot of saving potential in some areas, especially in supplier management. in our opinion we should;
1.choose our suppliers more carefully
2.establish stricter standards for our suppliers
3.co-operate more closely with some more of our important
suppliers (to achieve better results).
I'll call you next week to give you some more details on that.
