In-depth Use Case / Real-world Example

In a manufacturing company that produces high-end medical devices, Supplier Relationship Strength tracks the level of collaboration and trust with key suppliers. For example, if a supplier regularly provides feedback on design improvements, shares advanced technologies, and works closely with the procurement team, the relationship strength would be rated high.
