		<description>Strategic Sourcing Methodology is a good tool. 

However, sourcing has a lot more to do with creating and sustaining relationships (internally and externally), than with different techniques, never forget that. Never forget that all the saved money in the world will not pay for a supplier not willing to go the extra mile for you. And never forget that no 2 suppliers are the same.</description>

		<description>I have now read alot of very valuable information on the 7 Step Strategy  from this site and have found it vey informative. I have used this Strategy in my professional life with great success. For newcomers to the Procurement field I would suggest that you drink in as much information as you can on this subject in will be useful to you in your career. The negotiation strategy is key in the the seven steps and again I would suggest that you look into as much information as you can on this subject as possible as well. Great site!</description>
