The supplier agreement creates a shared understanding between the acquirer and supplier, forming the basis of their collaborative relationship. This agreement clearly defines the processes, roles, and responsibilities, allowing the acquirer to effectively monitor supplier activities, track deliverable progress, ensure compliance with agreement standards, and promptly resolve any arising issues.
