Procurement Integrity: Winning the Vendor War.
Protecting your margins through risk-based sourcing and vendor logic.
In a global economy, your product is only as reliable as your least reliable vendor.
Most startups treat procurement as a price-tag exercise. They buy from the cheapest supplier and hope for the best. At RidgePoint Strategies, we treat procurement as Risk Mitigation. If a vendor fails, your brand fails.
Beyond the PO
Strategic procurement isn't about sending Purchase Orders; it's about building a Vendor Scorecard. We evaluate partners on three dimensions:
- Lead Time Variability: Can they deliver on time when you are scaling?
- Quality Consistency: Does the 1,000th unit look like the first?
- Financial Resilience: Will they still be in business next year?
