当需求量较大而我的传统供应商无法供货时，我怎样才能更好地增强自己相对于其他经过审查的供应商的实力？

“因此，我认为第一步其实就是提前规划，确保从供应连续性和风险缓解的角度了解自己的策略。从生产角度来看，这一点以及哪些零件和供应商至关重要，”Cherry 说道。

“If your answer is that all parts and suppliers are critical, then you probably haven’t gotten to the right level of detail to categorize or segment your portfolio.

“On top of this, ensure the high accuracy of drawings and BOMs (bill of materials) to help you improve the speed of your turnaround when faced with an increase in demand,” continued Cherry.

继续讨论响应需求和生产变化的主题，我的公司有没有办法更可靠地获得所需的零件以匹配我们的生产水平？

克拉克对着麦克风说道：“准确的物料清单是帮助将准确性提升到需求水平的第一步，并且它们在整个生命周期中通常会经历多次迭代变化。”

Clarke 继续说道：“关键是要密切关注这些变化以及版本索引，并确保将这些变化传达给供应商。你这样做得越频繁，你就能获得越准确的数据。

“A forecast is only as good as it is at that point in time that it’s generated. Therefore, using all the tools around the BOMs and using all the updates to your vendor base that can support those forecasts are absolutely critical to ensure you maximize the chance of that demand and supply, matching and meeting that on time requirement,” said Clarke.

在整个讨论过程中，强有力的沟通是解决方案的重点。

“There’s a common theme here about how important good communication internally and externally is, as well as really understanding your supply base and being proactive”

“杰里米和亚当，从你们个人的角度来看，你们认为人们应该牢记哪些建议？”

“I think for myself the biggest tip I would give is to never assume anything,” said Clarke. “Whether it is anything from walking into a vendor to get an agreement and assuming you’re going to walk out with what you want or getting an urgent shipment onto an aircraft. I would always say just follow up on every single step that you do within the supply chain activity because you just get that peace of mind. Then, you can then walk away knowing that it’s absolutely going to happen.”

Cherry added to that saying: “I think for me, what kind of jumps out throughout my career is just making sure that you’re balancing the day-to-day short-term actions that you’re trying to use to drive value within your supply chain and business, alongside the long-term tasks where you’re making sure robust decisions that lead to long term stability and health for the company and supply chain overall. It can be difficult for people to be able to take a step back and try to keep that balance, however it’s very important you have a focus on both.”
