The purchasing success and the competitive situation of companies rise and fall with the quality of the suppliers. This makes it all the more important to systematically manage relationships with suppliers, i.e. to bind and develop the “right” suppliers.

The partners of the IFE would like to support you in driving supplier development in your company in order to recognize and profitably use the performance and development potential of your suppliers.
Our efforts focus on the entire lifecycle of supplier collaboration: from the definition of a clear objective (e.g. purchasing, commodity group, project strategy), through the phases of supplier research (supplier evaluation, supplier selection, supplier development), to the escalation or phase-out of suppliers.
Together with reference customers and partners, IFE develops tools and methods which serve to adapt supplier cooperation to the current requirements of the market on both a factual and personal level. The focus here is on an optimal price-quality-time mix at process cost.
