Customer-supplier relationships are not "all or nothing" arrangements. Many firms have a close relationship in some ways but not in others. Thus it's useful to think about 5 key dimensions that help characterize most buyer-seller relationships: 1. [a] buyer and seller work together to achieve both mutual and individual objectives. 2. [b] exchanging proprietary data to help with planning and decision making. 3. [c] direct ties between organizations involving ongoing coordination of activities and tasks. 4. [d] detailed legal contracts that bind the buyer and seller to agreed terms 5. [e] changes in a firm's product or procedures that are unique to the needs or capabilities of a relationship partner.

a = Cooperation b = information c = operation d = legal e = adaptation

As a part of the organizational buying process, the text identifies 3 different types processes. Match each process below to the description. [a] is a routine recurring purchase of goods/services from an existing supplier. In this type of process, buyers don't generally make an effort to find new information or new suppliers because they have already gone through the process of identifying the best product for their needs. [b] occurs when an organization has a new need and desires a great deal of information in order to make a good decision. This process can involve setting product specifications, evaluating many suppliers and the decision often requires multiple buyer influences in the buying center. [c] is the in-between process where some amount of review and information gathering is required. Often times, the existing product may be performing in a satisfactory manner, but the supplier may not be paying attention to the customer which creates an opportunity for other suppliers to take the business away if they can provide a superior marketing mix. Choices: New-Task Buying Straight Rebuy Modified Rebuy

a = Straight Rebuy b = New - Task Buying c = Modified Rebuy
