Abstract:
This paper proposes a new method of selecting appropriate buyer-supplier relationships(BSR)for specific projects. Because it is almost impossible in reality to establish mathematical relationships between the BSR attributes and the factors of a project, the concept of relationship indices(RI)is introduced to quantify such BSR which are in turn established through design of experiments. Based on the experimental results, the contributions of project factors, known as factors’ relationship worths(RWs), are estimated. RWs are used to estimate RI and thus the type of BSR for the new case.
