Some of the most important relationships you forge throughout your career are not with colleagues or co-workers, but with the vendors you work with regularly. Finding the right vendor and developing a good working relationship with them can help your company thrive in today’s competitive marketplace, while the wrong vendor can quickly cause problems through poor delivery, sub-par products and high prices. Finding the right vendor, and knowing when it’s time to move on, is a crucial skill to develop.
This course explains how to forge and maintain good relationships with your vendors, starting with how to find the right vendor for your organisation’s specific needs. It then covers how to maintain a good working relationship, including handling invoicing concerns, and how to deal with difficulties you may experience when working with a third-party vendor.
- The three key factors you should look for when finding a new vendor
- Why each of those three factors is important
- How to deal with invoicing concerns
- Why it is important to understand your own responsibilities and obligations
- Who you should speak to if an order is wrong
- Why price should never be the determining factor when choosing a vendor
The course comprises one module of around 15 minutes of video learning, plus an assessment quiz.
This course forms part of our Administration & HR collection, alongside further titles in our full range of CPD courses at Skills Pad.
