ADeliveries in full and on time

BInformation sharing

CTrust

DCost savings

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B, C

The correct answers are information sharing and trust. Further qualitative KPIs are listed on p.102. Deliveries in full and on time would be a quantitative KPI and early supplier involvement is not a KPI at all.

Wait, what about Information sharing (B)? That's crucial for collaboration with the supplier. Plus, it's kinda funny - 'Hey, how's the weather? Oh, and by the way, can you share those sales figures?'

I think trust is important too. It's a qualitive measure that can impact the supplier relationship.

I agree with Clay. Information sharing could also be a good qualitive KPI to include.

I agree with Eveline and James. A and D are obvious choices, but I'm not convinced Trust (C) is a good KPI. Unless Kirsty has a really clear way to measure it, it might be a bit tricky.

I think Kirsty should include deliveries in full and on time as a qualitive KPI.

Hmm, I'm not so sure about including Trust (C) as a KPI. That's a bit subjective, don't you think? I'd stick to more concrete metrics like the ones Eveline mentioned.

I think Kirsty should definitely include both Deliveries in full and on time (A) and Cost savings (D). Those are key metrics for evaluating supplier performance.
