Performing Effective Financial Analysis of Suppliers within the Sourcing Team

The SIG Resource Center is moving to The SIG Community. If you are a SIG Member, or enrolled in SIG University, and don’t have access yet, you can do so here. Already have access? Log in and visit the new SIG Resource Center.

This session will help the non-financial sourcing professional with key concepts and a viable approach for monitoring the financial health of your vital suppliers. We will identify a set of primary ratios to generate and monitor over time as an indicator of financial health. We will also provide a template for calculating and tracking these ratios by supplier. Finally, we will discuss different tactics to obtain financial information for both publicly and privately-held suppliers.

Topics covered in this session included:

  • The fundamental analysis ratios to consider
  • How to access readily available information to monitor your suppliers
  • How to perform this activity efficiently and still be effective
