Figure 1
A diagram of a procurement framework in the context of supplier dominance. The diagram is divided into four quadrants based on two axes: urgency on the vertical axis and substitutability on the horizontal axis. The quadrants are labeled as follows: 1. Urgent and Irreplaceable, 2. Urgent and Replaceable, 3. Non-urgent and Irreplaceable, and 4. Non-urgent and Replaceable. Each quadrant contains specific strategies: quadrant 1 focuses on bargaining power, quadrant 2 on specification assessment, quadrant 3 on backup sourcing, and quadrant 4 on intelligent deal structure. The diagram also highlights foundational strategies such as vertical integration, visibility, collaboration, and bottleneck management. The axes are labeled with examples: high urgency includes amino acids and animal feed, while low urgency includes human food and some fertilizer components. High substitutability includes some fertilizer components and animal feed, while low substitutability includes human food and amino acids.Procurement framework in the context of supplier dominance.
