Description and Table of Contents

Description

This text details Honda of America's approach towards supplier management and purchasing. At Honda, competitive advantage comes from developing suppliers rather than merely identifying them. Their programme for supply-based excellence, dubbed BP/BQ (Best Partner, Best Profit, Best Productivity/Best Quality), features a combination of quality analysis and problem-solving techniques and incorporates basic philosophical guidelines that aim to ensure sustained success. The text hopes to enable a deeper understanding of the inter-relatedness between purchasing, supplier development and the success of an organization.
