En mi experiencia en este campo, en concreto para una peque?a empresa fabricante dentro del campo de la ingeniería, no necesito más de 2 o 3 proveedores por producto o por gama de productos. Nos aseguramos que la calidad y el precio vayan de la mano e incluso, según qué producto, y son varios en nuestro caso, no escatimamos a la hora de pagar más si la calidad prima. Incluso testamos productos. Este a?o principalmente he estado supervisando diversos certificados, que incluso realiza alguna empresa independiente, pero de gran prestigio en su sector. Es otro manera de estar más seguros de lo que compramos.

Una adecuada gestión de proveedores incluye en los términos contractuales los niveles de calidad aceptables. Y como todo contrato, debe cumplirse o en su defecto, ser cancelado. Adicionalmente, en procesos y calidad existe un principio: Gestión de las Relaciones. Este principio sugiere que el cliente debe acompa?ar y apoyar al proveedor en su desempe?o respecto a sus procesos y la calidad. Es una relación mutuamente beneficiosa, y que tiene un impacto significativo en el usuario o cliente final del producto o servicio: WIN-WIN. Todos ganan y todos pierden. La comunicación y la confianza deben ser la base de esta relación.

We need to have clear procedures regarding our expectations for suppliers and materials. Contracts with transparently described service levels. Receiving inspection analysis. Clear communication with an effective action plan. A pre-established meeting schedule. On-site audits and an alternative supplier list will make the supplier think twice before sending any issues to the plant.
