Page 7 of 77. Sourcing
Sourcing is the strategic process of identifying, evaluating, and selecting suppliers to provide goods or services that meet the organization's requirements. This involves assessing supplier capabilities, pricing, quality, and compliance with regulatory standards. By leveraging competitive bidding, negotiations, and market analysis, supplier sourcing ensures that the organization secures the best value, quality, and reliability for its procurement needs. This process plays a critical role in optimizing supply chains and fostering long-term supplier partnerships.
Once the buyer publishes the Request for Quotation (RFQ), the supplier will receive an email notification regarding the RFQ.
