Abstract:
The supplier network is noteworthy to any company procurement's success. Companies depending on suppliers to induce the finest quality products at the least cost could be a challenge. Finding the right supplier who can be trusted has ended up like a game of treasure hunt. Effective supplier networks have become essential to compete in today's supply chain environment. The supplier roles are not limited to material management and sourcing management; it can be extended to supplier relationship management. A quantitative approach had been used, and the online survey design was distributed among respondents based on the convenient sampling technique using social media platforms. A total of 400 respondents have retrieved, and analyses used descriptive and inferential analysis. The finding shows a significant relationship between the supplier selection decision and guanxi attributes.
