IT Governance: Vendor Relationship Management - Vendor or Partner?

Business cannot be conducted without them. Does it call them "Supplier" or "Vendor" or "Partner?" It is not just a matter of semantics. The distinction determines how much business value is created through these critical relationships.

These relationships range from purely transactional, producing little increased business value; to strategic partnerships that create significantly greater value.

This webcast addresses the issues and imperatives that can help one create and sustain shareholder value from these essential relationships.
