SOURCING STRATEGIES
• Single sourcing –
The buying firm depends on a single company for all or nearly all
of an item or service
• Multiple sourcing –
The buying firm shares its business across multiple suppliers
• Cross sourcing –
Using a single supplier for a certain part and another supplier with
the same capabilities for a similar part
• Dual sourcing –
Using two suppliers for the same purchased product or service

SOURCING PLANNING AND ANALYSIS
• A firm should periodically analyze its procurement
spending and supplier performance and use this
analysis as an input for future sourcing decisions
• Procurement spending should be analyzed by part
and supplier to ensure appropriate economies of
scale.
• Supplier performance analysis should be used to
build a portfolio of suppliers with complementary
strengths
– Cheaper but lower performing suppliers should be
used to supply base demand
– Higher performing but more expensive suppliers
should be used to buffer against variation in demand
and supply from the other source
MAKING SOURCING
DECISIONS IN PRACTICE
• Use multifunction teams
• Ensure appropriate coordination across
regions and business units
• Always evaluate the total cost of ownership
• Build long-term relationships with key
suppliers
