Supplier selection is easier when the evaluation is structured. These questions separate a promising conversation from a workable partnership.
Portfolio questions
- Is the portfolio published and consistent?
- Are strengths, dosage forms and pack presentations stated clearly?
- Do product images represent actual packs?
Commercial questions
- Who is the single point of contact for business enquiries?
- How long does a first substantive reply take?
- Is there a parent company or group behind the brand?
Relationship questions
- Are commitments realistic and specific?
- Is documentation handled professionally?
- Does the supplier avoid unverifiable claims?
