Supply chain partnerships and supplier relationship management in Asia

In the most recent episode of the Tompkins Associates Global Supply Chain Podcast, Technomic Asia’s Steve Ganster joins Jim Tompkins to discuss the importance of strong relationship management throughout the supply chain, particularly in Asia.
As Jim says:
In fact, I have heard it said that Western companies and Asian companies spell SRM differently. In the West, SRM is spelled capital S, little r and capital M (SrM).
