1. Establish a "Primary + Backup" Structure
• Primary Suppliers (1-2): Responsible for approximately 70-80% of core orders. Selection criteria should focus on strong overall capabilities, smooth cooperation, and stable production capacity.
• Backup Suppliers (1-2): Responsible for a small number of orders, maintaining a "ready" status. Selection criteria can focus on price advantages, delivery speed, or innovative features, serving as a complement and check on the primary suppliers.
2. Standardize and Implement Tiered Management
• Establish a clear "Technical Specifications and Quality Standards Document" for all suppliers to ensure consistent product baselines.
• Implement tiered management of suppliers based on the depth of cooperation and performance (e.g., quality pass rate, on-time delivery rate, after-sales response), and dynamically adjust procurement shares.
3. Implement Effective Information and Risk Management
• Clearly record each supplier's strengths, historical issues, and contract terms.
• Conduct regular (e.g., annual) risk assessments of the supply chain, simulating contingency plans for scenarios such as "if the primary supplier ceases supply."
