Problem:
I am looking for your kind assistance. Because my company is planning to purchase large water line pipes, they are sending me on a trip to a supplier site. As a buyer, could you provide me with some mandatory questions to assess the supplier as well as some additional advice for me to execute my job effectively? For example, do I need to verify the manufacturing process for the pipes? What type of capacity goals do I need to investigate? These types of sample questions will guide my through the process. If anyone could offer a sample question list and some brief explanations, I would be so appreciative.
