In order to effectively manage supplier performance and contractual obligations, the suppliers per-formance against key performance indicators (KPI) should be reviewed regularly. This KPI should have been agreed doing the post contract award negotiation. In addition to review KPIs suppliers and the procurement team should work towards continuous improvement. This is a continuous ef-fort to improve product or services within an organization. This may involve improving quality, reducing waste in the supply chain and focusing on innovation. It is an ongoing process that works toward perfection.
