Video Script
Your supplier is a critical part of your company’s business. And you need to be sure that nothing gets in the way of your product getting to your client.
Through years of supply chain management and optimization experience, GPSI has seen time and time again the importance of Supplier Recovery and Delivery Assurance.
This is a process by which your company and in turn GPSi work hand in hand with your supplier to put in place sustainable recovery measures, while at the same time, assuring your supplier’s autonomy and performance. Basically, if something goes wrong, you need an assurance from your supplier that critical orders will be expedited, and that they have processes in place to reach permanent recovery.
In beginning this conversation with your supplier and putting these systems in place, you’ll gain visibility on your supply chain and you’ll have a much better understanding of your supplier’s strengths and weaknesses.
Most importantly, you’ll reduce inefficiencies and material shortages, while expediting critical orders, and raising your on-time delivery to the highest level.

How to handle and avoid disruptions in your supply chain?
Maintaining a good relationship with your vendors helps them help you. Above all, do state of the art due diligence with your vendors to avoid setting them up for failure, provide visibility on your orders to them and regularly interact and visit them.
How to measure success in the supply chain?
KPIs include on-time delivery and quality metrics. If your supplier is successful, you will be too. Failing your suppliers will make you fail.

Your supply chain is only as good and reliable as your worst suppliers. Helping your suppliers develop and succeed will benefit you. Consider it an investment rather than an expense.
