1.   Build Relationships with Suppliers by Not Squeezing Them.  Penny wise pound foolish Purchasers like to squeeze suppliers.  They often end up with very few choices as few suppliers would like to work with them.  As a result, they buy cheaply but didn't get the best choices in the market. In fact their purchasing cost went up!

2.   Train the Managers and Directors First Before Training the Staff. When things go wrong, the first thing managers do is to send their staff for training.
