Abstract: Abstract With the blooming of economics and development of supply chain management, the relationships between enterprises and suppliers are changing. Many companies began to consider environmental factors in procurement process, which mainly concentrated in green procurement. However, it hard to achieve procurement method transformation and supply system rebuilt. Supply relationship integration can optimize the purchase pattern and bring benign environmental effects in order to implement cost and energy savings and emission-reduction. This paper use an electric power enterprise as an example and build a supply relationship integration model including three steps: evaluating suppliers by trading data; dividing supply relationships into 6 categories by cluster analysis method; using the improved Kraljic model to analyze the pros and cons of different supply relationships, then compared with the ideal supplier and combined with the actual situation to draw out the recommendations of the supply relationship integration, finally analysis the environmental effects of it.
