State of Flux has launched their 2010 survey on Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) and it would be great if you can complete it (As per last year, your response will be confidential). We know that SRM remains a hot topic for organisations, and creating the business case for change in this area is often challenging. All of us understand intuitively that SRM is the right thing to do, but it is difficult to put absolute values on the benefits that can be achieved through an SRM improvement programme.

In 2009 State of Flux focused their survey around the 6 steps for SRM success and for the 2010 survey they have extended the survey to not only focus on how organisations approach SRM and their business cases for change, the implementation and overall approach to SRM, but to also allow organisations to benchmark where their programs are in comparison to the leading practices.

It would be appreciated if you could take 10 to 15 minutes to complete the survey. State of Flux will happily provide the results upon completion of the survey and like last year they are planning to run some cross organisational workshops to discuss further so I’m sure they will be happy to invite you to join those.
