“ Ultimately , customers want speedy execution and seamless interaction ,” says Susanne Thöle . “ The way we achieve that is through understanding the market and identifying opportunities to enable cost savings , or technologies that can accelerate that . We then look at our engagement with existing suppliers and how we approach new suppliers .”
This journey started back in 2016 with Uniper looking at how it can create far greater supplier relationship management , incentivising suppliers to unlock more value and potential within those relationships .

“ We attend bootcamps , workshops and training talks to ultimately find easier , better solutions to reduce complexity . The idea was to exercise methodologies that we had learned previously to solve issues in our day-to-day business ”
