FIRST Situation: your : alliance can not get on the puck), then you would get a new alliance. No, you wouldn't. Purchasing picked the supplier, and they are the lowest bidder of these gaskets. Your project is already late and over budget, so you gotta deal with that supplier. You don't just go out and get a new supplier... maybe for the next project, but not this one. : In this years game you were stuck with a random partner... in : business you take the time to choose your alliances carefully. I don't choose many of my suppliers. They go through a quoting process, and the lowest bidder usually wins. If they are bidding low, and they are still trying to make money. YOur idea of the real world is not like mine. Andy B. |
