2. Sample - Sourcing Project Example 2.1 Objective, Approach DS Approach consists in the following work steps:

Context

1.Collect detailed spend information about the nature of the products required (supplier capabilities required, specifications, volumes, drawings, and samples when relevant for all references to be included in the RFI-RFQ process) with all spend data to be provided by client 2.Identify list of potential suppliers in China to include in the RFI process by incorporating existing list of DS potential suppliers, by leveraging the web, external databases and various networks of experts 3.Carry out a phone pre-screening of the suppliers based on maximum 45 screening criteria per category (e.g.: min size, having certain quality certification, experience in relevant industry,…) with these criteria to be provided by client 4.Develop the RFI-RFQ – jointly with client – to include all key supplier qualification criteria (e.g.: financial, technology, corporate responsibility, quality certification, MOQ, client references…) and quotation requirements 5.Administer the RFI / RFQ process to ensure as high a return rate as 6.Analyze responses based on qualitative criteria and use a balance score card together with client to rank suppliers and recommend suppliers which client needs to take through a formal qualification process 7.Carry pre-audits of recommended suppliers in order to identify those to have you audit (optional)
