In is for good reason that Professor Michael Porter had supplier’s
as one of his factors in his ‘five box model’ of competitiveness as
shown:

With outsourcing now a standard part of all
business strategies it is becoming vitally important that there is a
close cultural match between organisations and their major
suppliers, especially when those suppliers are handling a major
outsourced piece of business.
We can help in choosing outsourcing partners, or
major strategic suppliers, who have the closest cultural match to
your organisation.
We can also work with existing suppliers to
assess their culture and developing action plans to move them, or
that subset of them that you work with, closer to your own desired
culture.
