What makes a “great” supply chain partner? Supply Chain Brain has identified 10 characteristics that make vendors stand out from the crowd: reliability, service excellence, value, knowledge of the customer’s business, problem-solving skills, an attitude of continuous improvement, solid after-sales support, a positive “can-do” attitude, global reach, and strong leadership.

riskmethods is proud that our customers nominated us for this award two years in a row, and to be among the finalists in 2021 and 2022. We thank our nominees and Supply Chain Brain, and we look forward to continuing to serve our customer base.

This was awarded to riskmethods, which was acquired by Sphera in October 2022. This content originally appeared on the riskmethods website and was slightly modified for sphera.com.
