Customer’s Favoritism Towards Certain Suppliers
For instance, a supplier occupies a significant share (70% or more) of the purchases of a particular category of goods from a given customer.
To identify such risky procurements, it is necessary to gather data on purchases in which the supplier’s procurement amount in relation to the total purchase amount of the customer by category exceeds 70%.
