Vodafone Procurement Company values its collaboration with other companies . Wilson points to the 12 strategic partnerships which exist as key network and IT vendors . “ Our partnerships are grounded in strong commercial foundations . For example , if we ’ re working with a technology partner with state-of-the-art technology , then we think about how we manage those relationships so that we both get mutual benefit ,” he explains . “ Every two months there will be a 90-minute check-in for some of the key technology partners . There are two parts to the agenda ; there ’ s a review of performance and then there ’ s new releases that the vendor would like to come and talk to us about .”
