Answer:

the high cost of changing partners.                

Explanation:

The answer is ---

"the high cost of changing partners".

Strategic sourcing is a procurement process in an organisation that continuously improves purchasing activities of a company. It is the development of the supply channels.

There are six main sourcing strategies that runs in an organization --

  • many suppliers
  • few suppliers
  • vertical integration
  • joint ventures
  • vertical suppliers
  • keiretsu networks

In few suppliers sourcing strategy,the buyers build long term relationship with the suppliers and create high values. Trade secrets are maintained and other alliances are kept secret.

But the disadvantage with fewer supplier sourcing strategy is the high cost of changing supplier. When supplier are change or new supplier is made for purchase, it cost the company. New supplier tends to charge more for the supply.

Thus the answer is ---

the high cost of changing partners.

Why do you think the peace of development of society is not equal everywhere?write in four point
blagie [28]

Answer:

- Difference in culture

- Difference in resources availability

- Difference in geographical location

- Difference in Relationship with other societies

Explanation:

Difference in culture create a different standard of what considered to be right and what considered to be wrong. Sometimes, tolerance for violence in a certain culture become so high to the point where it is very hard for peace to develop.

Resource availability and geographical location determine how much wealth the society can accumulate. Society that accumulate more wealth tend to be more peaceful compared to starving society.

Last but not least, relationship with other societies. When a society managed to build a mutually beneficial relationship with its neighboring societies, peace development would most likely be accelerated since they are in the mindset of helping/building each other up.
