BUILDING A SUSTAINABLE SUPPLIER NETWORK - 5 TIPS

Building a sustainable supplier network is not just a step forward in business, but a commitment to a responsible and successful future. We share five tips for building a sustainable supplier network: together, we create sustainable and innovative construction projects. 

1. Define your needs clearly and purposefully

Before starting to look for a partner, clarify your own needs and goals. What makes a supplier ideal for you? Be specific about your company's needs so that you can choose a partner who supports and strengthens your business.

2. Research the reliability and history of suppliers

Choosing a partner is an investment in the future. Carefully research the reliability, history, and references of potential suppliers. Do they have a strong track record, and what do previous partners say about their reliability?

3. Responsibility as a priority

When building our supplier network, it is a top priority to ensure that selected partners share our values of responsibility. It is important to find out what concrete actions potential partners take towards more responsible operations. Only together can we create responsible construction projects.

4. Open and continuous communication

Strong communication is the foundation of everything. Establish an open and trusting dialogue with your suppliers and clear communication channels and methods. Continuous dialogue reduces risks and enables quick response to possible changes. Communication can be seen as a bridge that connects us to stronger cooperation.

5. Check financial stability and business sustainability

When choosing suppliers, evaluate their financial stability and business model sustainability. A stable and strong financial base ensures that the supplier can fulfill its contractual obligations. Choose a partner who not only meets your current needs but is ready to grow and succeed with you.

Responsibility and partners familiar with it are future success factors in our industry. Partners who can innovate and adapt in the changing industry are those with whom it is worth developing and deepening cooperation.
