Abstract: Abstract This chapter deals with the strategic role that suppliers and supply management play in a firm’s considerations and planning. First, as a bridge to the previous chapter, a discussion of the different types of buyer–supplier relationships is conducted, particularly emphasizing the distinction between the traditional (competitive) and the modern (collaborative) approach.
