What's SR2M?
SR2M starts with a supplier’s onboarding and continues throughout the lifecycle. It requires close cooperation between the Procurement and Operations/Business teams who play a strong role in those activities
Relationship and performance management
Relationship and performance management promotes value creation with Air Liquide partners. There are 4 segments of suppliers based on the suppliers’ impact on Air Liquide activities and their value creation potential: Strategic, Leverage, Potential and Transactional. Depending on the segment, Procurement and Operations/Business teams should organize regular business reviews (Executive and/or Operational), to evaluate and improve performance through KPI monitoring and joint action plan development
Suppliers' risks
Supplier’s risks should be assessed and mitigated before entering a business relationship and then monitored on a regular basis. On top of Trade Compliance and Corruption risks (which are deal breakers), 7 types of risks have been defined [to be hyperlinked]. Critical Suppliers should be identified, evaluated, monitored and qualified through detailed evaluations and/or on-site audits and/or dedicated (joint) mitigation action plans.
