Vendor Management Practice Harry Wallaesa President and CEO
[object Object],In these unprecedented economic  times, procurement organizations and the vendor relationships they manage hold the key to not only surviving these times but becoming stronger in them as well With the pressures of today’s global economy, it is difficult to manage a multi-sourced environment in a decentralized operation.  It is imperative that all aspects of sourcing,  (IT, business process, indirect and direct), are coordinated and communicated through an effective vendor management program to ensure vendor performance.
