“…Reference [28] stated that supplier selection, supplier assessment, and their involvement are the most important actions a buying firm should concentrate on. Therefore, many researchers provided a notion of supplier's assessment in strategic decision making process [29][30][31] and [32] to attain operational supply chain [33].…”

In today's dynamic business environment, firms are required to utilize efficiently and effectively all the useful resources to gain competitive advantage. Supplier development has evolved as an important strategic instrument to improve buyer supplier relationships. For that reason, this study focuses on providing the strategic significance of supplier development approaches to improve business relationships. By using qualitative research method, an integrated framework of supplier development and buyer-supplier relationship development has been tested and validated in a Finnish case company to provide empirical evidence. It particularly investigates how supplier development approaches can develop buyer-supplier relationships. The study present a set of propositions that identify significant supplier development approaches critical for the development of buyer-supplier relationships and develop a theoretical framework that specifies how these different supplier development approaches support in order to strengthen the relationships. The results are produced from an in-depth case study by implementing the proposed research framework. The findings reveal that supplier development strategies i.e., supplier incentives and direct involvements strongly effect in developing buyer-supplier relationships. Further research may focus on considering indepth investigation of trust and communication factors along with propositions developed in the study to find out general applicability in dynamic business environment. Proposed integrated framework along with propositions is a unique combination of useful solutions for tactical and strategic management's decision making and also valid for academic researchers to develop supplier development theories.

“…Araz and Ozkarahan pointed out though that the traditional selection criteria (cost, quality and delivery) are not enough for strategic supplier selection and they suggested other criteria such as quality management practices, long-term management practices, financial strength, technology, innovativeness, cooperative attitude of the supplier, and co-design and cost-reduction capabilities of the supplier (Araz and Ozkarahan, 2007).…”

International audienceIn New Product Development (NPD) projects, various partners may be involved at different phases and their participation can lead to either success or failure of the project. Therefore, a company that launches a NPD project has to carefully select the most appropriate partners. Currently, partner selection in supply chains is often performed according to well-known criteria such as cost or delay. However, problems could emerge in such processes due to the unavoidable power disequilibrium of the parties involved. The strongest party will sooner or later force the weaker ones to accept challenging constraints. The use of power will lead to doubtless mistrust and frustration. Therefore, the awareness of the suppliers' power before any collaboration is of upmost importance and in realistic situations it should be used as a high-level selection criterion. This paper argues that the power of partners represents a significant issue for the achievement of a coherent supplier selection strategy. A method is suggested to assess the power of partners based on its performances. The joint use of a power-based selection approach and a performance-based selection approach is illustrated at the end of the paper showing how the power consideration can help decision-makers in selecting more relevant partners

“…The selection of supplier may be described as a determination procedure of purchasing the raw material, semi-finished products and materials needed for manufacturing in what quantity and which periods and from which supplier (Ghodsypour & O'Brien, 1998;Benyoucef et al, 2003). While a wrong selection is enough to turn upside down of financial and operational status of the company (Araz & Ozkarahan, 2007;Faez et al, 2006), selecting the best supplier can affect enormously the decreasing purchase costs and increasing competitive power (Faez et al, 2006;Hong & Lee, 2013). Therefore activities of procurement departments and selection of suppliers in these activities have specific importance on the way towards this success of reducing costs (Muralidharan et al, 2002).…”
