Many leading organizations and industry associations have adopted supplier codes of conduct (SCCs) for many good reasons.

More importantly, they want to know how their supplier partners are contributing to sustainable development. A review of the sourcing for a raw material used in the high tech industry reveals a great deal about what SCCs imply and how companies respond. Columbite-tantalite, or coltan as it is commonly known, is a metallic ore which finds it way into the supply chains of manufacturers of...

As recently as April 2009, at one of our You Asked for It workshops, Summit readers experienced a hands on demonstration of emotional intelligence (EI) at work. In a session led by Linda Pickard, workshop attendees figured out whether they were left or right brain dominant, or somewhere in between, and then learned how that characteristic played out in communications and negotiations with co-workers, clients and suppliers. Understanding your emotions and those of the people you are dealing with improves communication and, consequently, the outcome of the situation. I suspect that to many of you it sounds a bit "touchy feely" for a procurement magazine, but I also suspect that understanding and practicing your EI will go a long way to making work more productive, procurements more succes...

Malaysia held the ninth Sarawak state election on May 20, 2006. It has invited various issues such as native customary rights land development, fuel hike and Chief Minister successor issue. Barisan Nasional won 62 of the 71 seats. The result was seen as a shock because BN failed to maintain the big mandate given from the previous election which was 60 of the 62 seats contested. The opposition meanwhile won 9 seats, reflecting new voting attitudes among the voters. This article examines the election issues and their performance in the election. This article also discusses the factors that influenced the voting patterns and the implications in the future. It is drawn from a 14 days fieldwork since nomination day, throughout election campaign period and polling day in May 2006.

EVERY ORGANIZATION KNOWS it should be assessing supplier performance. Most are deploying some sort of supplier performance measurement, whether it is a couple of rudimentary key performance indicators (KPIs) or more sophisticated data gathering and on-site assessment programs. But few purchasing and quality professionals are likely to answer "yes" when asked whether they are satisfied with their supplier assessment capabilities and results. If the results of performance measurement and supplier assessment are not actionable or expectations of actions are not communicated, those actions will not occur. This is a difficult piece of the supplier performance puzzle because many supplier organizations may have competencies in some areas that exceed those of their customers. Measuring supplie...
