We're going to continue to do what's right for the growth of the business. Our pricing strategy is not to maximize margin percentage growth but to maximize buying for our customers, ... As we grow, we'll be able to get better economies of scale, better prices from our suppliers and our third-party sellers. All that should help margins.
Tom Szkutak

I've lost two jobs this season because I couldn't get people — any people. And I'm one of the largest labor suppliers around here. If I'm having trouble, everybody's having trouble.
Fred Garza
We expect more suppliers to tag more items as tag prices fall.
Linda Dillman
The reality is that there should not be an impact. However, many of the material suppliers and subcontractors are using that as an excuse for raising prices.
Alan Nevin
They're one of our larger suppliers.
Jeff Tryka
I run into quite a few chefs at the restaurant suppliers that are from New Orleans. But they're working behind the scenes. They don't have their own places. They're cooking for somebody else.
Brian Wright
In addition, one of the biggest reasons that we chose them over any other provider was because their solutions are Web-enabled. Now it's easy to get our suppliers to come [into] our LAN and get the most current spec and even tell them there is a spec change they need to retrieve.
Stephen Ryan
Asia is the epicenter of sourcing and manufacturing. They have so many different types of suppliers.
Brent Thill
We've targeted several types of industries such as automobile suppliers and distribution centers because of our location.
Valerie Gray
In the short term, natural gas suppliers might feel they have an enormous amount of leverage. In almost every instance, that position was a flawed obsession, revealing the gas producer to be an unreliable supplier.
David Victor
What we're trying to do is get ahead of the curve, find out who the suppliers are and kids who are already hooked on this into rehab.
Donny Claxton
Algoma employees and pensioners, the company's suppliers, the City of Sault Ste. Marie and the government of Ontario contributed hundreds of millions of dollars to the effort to making this company viable.
Wayne Fraser
Each year our innovation awards honor our top suppliers for their forward thinking, responsiveness and product development that best serve our customers.
Tom Taylor
It doesn't mean that much for the auto sector. There may be some fallout from the other suppliers, but everyone knows this is a very difficult situation, it's probably going to get worse before it gets better.
Tom Houghton
Our mission is to help our members and suppliers build sales and create repeat business through innovative marketing. We're providing members with extraordinary support, free, high quality marketing materials, and of course, outstanding travel deals from our preferred cruise and tour suppliers.
Mike Baldwin
Inventory levels for steel products are now getting high and suppliers are facing falling prices. The indexes have risen much faster than I anticipated and I still think the pace is too fast given the prospects for corporate earnings.
Katsunori Hirai
We have strong relationships with diamond suppliers and an intense focus on customer service. We strive to ensure a full-service experience for our customers and provide them with the finest diamonds in gorgeous settings at a fraction of the price they'd pay in a retail store.
Oscar Rodriguez
Under the current system suppliers are extremely reluctant to stick their head above the parapet and complain about their trading relationships - even if their businesses are at risk - because they fear retaliation. The Competition Commission has to take a very close look at this.
Peter Kendall
It's been very difficult accessing AT&T's network recently, and it's gotten even worse over the last two weeks. It's not playtime anymore where [our employees] are going online to check basketball scores. The Internet's needed on a daily basis to search for new fabrics, braidings and sequins from our suppliers.
Scott Rice
Declines in commodity prices may cause investors to take a step back from shares of related suppliers.
Koichi Seki
You're close to your suppliers, and you've got a very capable available work force. It all enhances the efficiency of a global business.
Jess Blackburn
They are in a slightly different situation than the other suppliers, ... The majority of their oil comes from the North Sea, so they are not, to this point, affected by some of the recent weather conditions.
David Gleason
Having suppliers involved as partners earlier in the engineering process helps reduce lead time and improves quality for our customers. GM also will be able to design more cost-effective vehicles for customers that will provide additional environmental benefits and better fuel economy.
Harold Kutner
What's been happening is they've been changing the whole manufacturing process. Suppliers are now required to be on the premises or pretty damned close to it.
Walter Winnitzki
Because I know they are in the top tier, I have a scorecard for those suppliers and top management meetings.
Bob Currey
In that short time, this innovative, unique philosophy has been infused into literally every aspect of our business practices both internally and throughout our entire supplier network, and has had a resounding impact on our organization, customers and suppliers.
Rick Schwartz
We are working with multiple suppliers and alternatives, ... We recognize that the ramp-up phase is very critical for suppliers and for ourselves to get economies of scale.
Jim Padilla
Rapid growth in new orders and sales does not automatically translate to higher profits. New employees will need to be hired and trained. Suppliers need to expand capacity too. Can all this be handled without margin degradation?
Byron Callan
Wal-Mart is an exception because it is able to have such pricing power and such influence over suppliers that it is difficult for anyone to compete on price. What it means for the customer is that price will make you buy, but it doesn't give you the same satisfaction as a high level of service.
Claes Fornell
The restrictions are a big factor. We work with marketing researchers and suppliers who are in tune with these things to make sure we have an adequate supply of those goods.
Daphne Avila
This shortage is not affecting major projects. Providence Stadium has more than 190 tons of cement in stock and the contractors have enough cement on order from their suppliers to complete the work that they are doing.
Karan Singh
Our biggest concern is suppliers who are not automotive, but are small suppliers that are technologically innovative. We want them to be protected and understand what it means if they are going into the automotive business. We spend time with more novice suppliers.
Jerry Griffin
The proposal is an exercise in financial engineering and does not take into account McDonald's unique business model. While we remain open to ideas, we simply will not jeopardize the long-term health of our company, nor our relationships with customers, franchisees and suppliers for such a financial engineering exercise.
Matthew Paull
When we said we would sign up multiple microcontroller partners, it raised an important issue, since we're a tiny company. We had the specific discussion of eliminating OEM sales in favor of partnering with chip suppliers, but the coprocessor market appeared to have a long enough life to justify our offering products like the EM260 independently.
Bob Metcalfe
If you are comparing against an RG&E fixed price, when you talk to other energy suppliers, you need to ask questions about whether all (the components are) fixed as well. That's the only way to compare apples to apples.
Clyde Forbes
With 21CN, BT and our suppliers are leading the world in next generation networks. Where we go with 21CN, others will follow, and the experience gained and expertise developed in this transformation of BT's network will set the standard for other next generation deployments.
Paul Reynolds
What is behind everything that Luxottica has done worldwide is, they get so powerful they can fry the suppliers' brains out. If you're an independent seller of eyewear, you have a problem. You have to live on service and relationships and fashion and all of that, but it's very difficult to compete with somebody who is buying the same product for less.
Howard Davidowitz
This is a great win for the state in that it reinforces our ability to attract auto assembly plants. Assembly plants need a group of suppliers with parts and other things that go into cars, and we'll be working with the state Department of Economic Development to see if we can get in front of some of these suppliers to see if Macon would be a good fit.
Pat Topping
We are proud to earn this award. It represents a great deal of hard work for us, for our suppliers and for their suppliers. We salute our team of exemplary employees and suppliers, and share this honor with them.
Steve Perkins
I hope other companies in the racing business will join us in supporting the RTIP initiative. It has the potential to produce an extraordinary level of ROI for track owners and operators, horsemen and suppliers.
Michael Weiss
For mid-sized suppliers in particular, the setting up of an own production outlet in the vicinity of the final product manufacturer became a question of survival: They had to follow their big customers abroad.
Hans Reich
It is true that the auto market inside Michigan is shrinking. But the auto market in the United States is growing. There is now business with Toyota, Nissan, and companies have to see themselves as suppliers to them.
Jim Jacobs
Getting the costs down to $20 ex-factory is a big challenge for handset manufacturers and their semiconductor and component suppliers and we believe with our background we can help both Tier 1 handset makers and original design manufacturers to meet this target.
David Mcternan
Most of the hardware suppliers sell Linux and Windows systems, so they really do not care which one a customer uses. Dell began pushing Linux most recently, so it might have the most to gain.
George Weiss
The hospital has paid all suppliers.
Sizwe Kupelo
By soliciting input from a diverse mix of OEMs, EMS providers, suppliers and R&D institutes, we help ensure that the roadmap will be useful to industry. We are also actively recruiting participation from Europe and Asia to make sure that we have a global perspective.
Jim Arnold
We don't get whole hanging beef in anymore. That was 25, 30 years ago. There's only a half-dozen, or a dozen, suppliers in the country. They all ship to our main warehouse.
Chris Price
We hold ourselves up to the same Electronics Industry Code of Conduct standards as we expect from our suppliers.
Tod Arbogast
There are a number of retailers that are pushing their suppliers to expand the use of RFID. Additionally, the military's use of active RFID tags on containers continues to expand. There are hundreds of other pilot projects taking place, too.
Jeff Woods
Personally I am opposed to sending athletes to jail for doping. We need to apply the laws to suppliers and doctors, not athletes. Two-year sport bans are devastating enough.
Mario Pescante
They booked credits from multiple suppliers, with cash tied to future business. It might be perceived as another piece of bad news. But it's not a big issue.
Joseph Amaturo
We've worked with our key suppliers on several programs to take out waste, increase economies of scale, improve quality and customer satisfaction, and create a framework for stronger relationships.
Tony Brown
Real world events are forcing agencies to require their software solution providers adhere to strict regulatory standards that guard against threats to their IT systems. We respect Network General for its continued focus on IT security, as well as its dedication to ensuring that suppliers support and service its agency counterparts with solid, secure software offerings.
John Trauth
With the backing of Ford, and the money and engineering expertise (Ford provides), they also get the buying power to purchase parts from suppliers that Ford already has deals with; and all of that makes it a lot easier to develop a good car. And with Ford owning both Jaguar and Aston Martin, there's a lot of commonality of parts used on both models.
David Champion
Short term is tough. We're living now with the consequences of policy decisions that were made over the past several years ? in some cases, over the past several decades. The core of the problem is skyrocketing demand in the United States and other countries and instability among key suppliers.
David Sandalow
It's interesting because it's an already pretty consolidated sector. There are very few suppliers and only two big ones that are free.
Michael Schroder
It's an important goal of ours to have strategic relationships with all the major platform suppliers. Specifically noteworthy, we have a desire to work with IBM. But people say, 'IBM has a database.' We don't see that as an issue.
Marten Mickos
Honda's global success is directly related to our core philosophy of delivering the highest possible value to our customers through quality products and customer service. Today we acknowledge select suppliers who share in our philosophy and thank them for their dedication to American Honda's quality commitment.
Gary Kessler
This will have a significant impact on the cost and waste in the supply chain. We have a problem in terms of the business model in this industry. It is not working effectively for our suppliers. It is not working effectively for us.
Tony Brown
China is being watched very closely by the American steel industry's lawyers in Washington, and the mills offshore know it. Nobody wants more dumping lawsuits, it is not good for anyone-buyers or suppliers.
Mark Casey
We have listened to the market and developed the first-of-its-kind 'Quick Start' program to help the automotive supplier community quickly cut costs by enabling leaner processes. With these easily deployed, low-cost, no risk offerings, we expect the tier one community to quickly adopt our technology further building out our automotive ecosystem upstream to suppliers.
Gary Latham
A year and a half ago, cable took months. They had all kinds of installation problems, and poor coordination with their suppliers.
Bruce Kasrel
The response of consumers and suppliers to the recent changes in energy markets in New Hampshire has been quick and sophisticated. The concepts and principles first laid out in state policy in 1996 have now been proven out and customers are pocketing the savings from competitive electricity transactions.
Todd Black
Hot selling consumer electronic items can help maintain sustainable growth for component suppliers.
Michael On
We have assembled the best possible team for APKWS II. These suppliers are all leaders in their respective fields. Their expertise will help Lockheed Martin substantially reduce program cost and risk.
Derrick Edwards
We have nothing more to add. As we have said all along, we remain focused on our plan to win, which is delivering solid results by improving our restaurant experience for customers, ensuring alignment with our franchisees and suppliers and adding value to shareholders.
Anna Rozenich
We are assessing the situation, and working closely with our suppliers.
Jean Medina
Everyone's scrambling to find new suppliers, foreign suppliers, anybody.
Chris Mauro
We see this expanded initiative as a way of working together with other leading suppliers and service providers to define the standards and architecture that will enable the infrastructure for the global network economy of the future.
Andy Green
The idea is greater collaboration with the suppliers and hopefully greater cost savings for us.
Tom Wickham
A lot of new fuel suppliers are going to be coming online so attention to quality will be more important than ever. It's critical that the fuel meet the specifications. An off-specification batch can create problems and a bad batch of fuel can be devastating.
Jenna Higgins
The idea of the cluster is to soften the blow of Europe losing employment in the production area. And it'll pay off by giving Europe's weavers and other raw material suppliers a ready market.
Laurent Ruessmann
It's challenging for everyone. Whenever Wal-Mart scales back, it is hard for suppliers to be flexible enough to respond quickly. The volumes are big.
Michelle Bogan
It becomes even more critical as we know some of our feedstock suppliers have curtailed or discontinued their supply.
Mike Childress
Before Sept. 11, (2001), we were receiving about 5,500 combat boots a month for the troops. There's been a huge surge since the war and we've upped that demand to 85,000 a month. We've asked our suppliers to ramp up production. If they can make just one more, we'll take it.
Frank Johnson
You know, I've been at INC. for 23 years now and I've seen thousands of companies and I'd put ECCO right up there at the top. In terms of the workplace they have, in terms of the culture, the intimacy they have in the workplace in terms of their relationships with their customers and their suppliers.
Bo Burlingham
Without access to the huge amount of capital needed to go the traditional route, we are establishing sound relationships with strategic partners among quality suppliers to help us achieve our objectives.
Beverly Farmer
Things like generators, ignition coils and basic brake components do not fall into Delphi's picture because there are so many suppliers competing on price out there it's unlikely you can gain any kind of a competitive advantage.
Jim Gillette
The defining factor should be a supplier's ability to eliminate or reduce downtime, which is the biggest cost factor for a contractor.
David Glaser
We will cooperate with big brand suppliers, which always have relationships with those small stores.
Jan Blasko
The total sales of plastic tableware have increased over the amount before the ban. Its low cost supports a strong demand among food suppliers in the market and makes it hard for the catering service people to give them up.
Li Peisheng
Our requirements turned out to be overkill. If you try to treat one of these suppliers as a body shop -- telling them exactly what to do and how to do it -- it does not go well.
Christopher Cartwright
This is a critical milestone for the airplane as we make the transition from the development phase to the production phase. With most of the drawings complete, our suppliers and fabrication plants can begin manufacturing detailed parts.
Mike Delaney
Our business will push the sales of both retailers and suppliers.
Jan Blasko
After a thorough analysis of our options, we determined it was more advantageous for the company and our shareholders to quickly and decisively shut down the business. We will continue to honor our commitments to all of our customers, suppliers and vendor partners.
James O'neill
We don't harass them or own them. We just want to grow them. Even without an equity position, we can have a similar impact as an equity investor in that we do pursue long-term relations with suppliers because we know those lead to innovative approaches to our supply situations.
Peter Rosenfeld
Metro-area water suppliers should be able to look at filling their reservoirs this year.
Mike Gillespie
Suppliers here in Tucson can not keep up with the demand they are only able to produce so much. They can't keep up with the demand.
John Carson
There's a great deal of concern among auto suppliers about whether they can remain profitable or survive with union contracts. If Delphi's willing to force renegotiation through a bankruptcy filing, I suspect other suppliers would do the same.
Jim Gillette
There were some drivers for increasing margins in 2005, including better negotiations with suppliers and higher pricing points in stores. The company made several deep changes in terms of the way we negotiate with suppliers, as well as how pricing in stores, present products...category management issues.
Fernando Tracanella
All the suppliers are extremely nervous. They stand to lose a considerable amount of cash. This is going to be a decision Miller makes on his own based upon where he's at. ... How do you predict a decision like that?
Jim Gillette
Nasser's been the primary architect of a failed transformation of Ford from its core automotive heritage to some expansive consumer-centric organization, which we think employees, dealers, suppliers and investors have found to varying degrees to be somewhat incomprehensible.
Scott Hill
Roche has had plenty of time to figure out what its options are regarding the licensing of the patents. There are too many potential suppliers to undertake individual negotiations with each company. Roche needs to simply identify the relevant terms it will impose on generic suppliers and offer open licenses to anyone who can comply.
James Love
The majority of isotopes used in the United States today are provided by foreign suppliers.
Ralph Butler
DaimlerChrysler places a high strategic importance on a healthy supply base and understands that no automaker can win in today's global marketplace without the help of its suppliers.
Peter Rosenfeld
There is a lot of uncertainty. Higher prices caused by simply shipping products could last for six or eight weeks. Our suppliers are saying it's too early to tell the impact. They are advising us to get product but not to do anything radical.
Mike Hundman
Comparative advantage in the production of many of these requirements therefore lies outside China, with suppliers such as Rio Tinto.
Robert Wilson
It is a distinct honor to be selected as an International Truck and Engine Corporation Diamond Supplier. International has a reputation for holding all of their suppliers to a high standard. Our selection from such an exceptional group is a true mark of distinction for Mayflower Vehicle Systems and the Commercial Vehicle Group.
Patrick Miller
[Southwest turns its planes around twice as fast as competitors, getting more flights out of expensive aircraft and pilots. Wal-Mart invented loading-dock processes to quash expensive inventory. Dell runs] their entire company with three days of inventory, you pay up front, and they stiff their suppliers, ... Operations is where these industries are won and lost.
Michael Hammer
What better way to promote collaboration than bring together retailers and suppliers so they can share information and work together to succeed in today's highly competitive retail industry.
Jane Hoffer
Korean suppliers are important to General Motors' success. We buy $7 billion from them and personally, I am very pleased with their performance.
Bo Andersson
DaimlerChrysler's goal is to develop deeper relationships and provide more opportunities to suppliers that are proven performers.
Peter Rosenfeld
While our customers generally look to manufacturers to provide them with accurate product data, we are in constant contact with our suppliers and have the resources required for an effective due diligence program. To create a program similar to ours would be especially challenging for our smaller size customers.
Paul Tallentire
We have multiple suppliers for each product to ensure inventory flow and guard against unforeseen obstacles. Establishing a presence near multiple ports helps us build contingencies into our distribution network. We are trying to diversify the mechanisms for transporting product inbound and around the country.
Joe Roth
They don't have the size and scale to obtain mindshare with component suppliers, or with contract manufacturers. They want the same command, control and continuity of their supply chains they enjoy with their North American or Western European operations.
Greg Frazier
Taiwanese firms are their [the Japanese] first pick because of their strong cost-saving capabilities, benefiting from lower-priced LCD panels and chips from Taiwanese suppliers.
Annabelle Hsu
Through its leadership component technology and commitment to building its OEM business, IBM has been one of the few suppliers able to meet our requirements.
Paul Noble
The dealers have to buy in, the suppliers, their shareholders, Wall Street. Each of those constituencies need to buy into the brand identity if it is to succeed.
Gerald Meyers
Some manufacturers will specify performance and some will even [detail] vibration characteristics, but only in rare cases will they specify the electronic components that will be used to implement those specifications. They do the 'paper job,' and rely on suppliers for nitty-gritty details.
Jack Morgan
XML will provide a common format to share information with our suppliers and customers.
Brian Richardson
With wholesale prices where they are, all suppliers are going to have to put prices up in 2006, and I think that is inevitable.
Mark Clare
They're staying in San Diego, and there is a demand, and suppliers are trying to meet that demand.
Lauren Mack
This is a way for our partner suppliers to expand their consumer base. They might not have been able to reach this base with their own traditional ways of marketing and distribution.
Margaret Chabris
Amy?s Kitchen is a great victory for the Rogue Valley, ... This company is exactly the kind we want to recruit and retain in Oregon. It?s a tremendous fit, because a lot of the company?s suppliers are from Oregon.
Ted Kulongoski
They are observing the increase of our cropland and may become important suppliers, as Brazil imports over 50% of its needs.
Abdelwahab Abdallah
We do a certification of suppliers to validate the product is compatible with our existing products for the system building community. Kingston is a perfect product to support our initiatives in the AMD product offering.
George Condon
The retail marketplace is competitive and challenging. The common thread for both retailers and suppliers is the consumer. Collaboration is critical to success.
Jane Hoffer
ICE teams have been in Iraq since the war began in March, where they've been working with the Department of Defense to peel back the layers of Saddam's covert weapons procurement network and track down his suppliers.
Michael Garcia
China is at a point where Chinese suppliers are taking over a dominant share of the local markets in many categories. Mostly it's for non-proprietary components such as connectors, tantalum capacitors and resistors.
Bud Mathisel
Going with a third party brings a level of integrity to it. The neutrality makes the sellers more comfortable. If I'm hosting the auction, suppliers may not be comfortable that I'm treating everyone fairly. They might think that I'm withholding information from some and giving it to others.
Michael Mcgaugh
We are open-minded about working together with other manufacturers and of course suppliers.
Thomas Weber
We have very good relationships with our suppliers, working side-by-side to grow our businesses together and provide quality and value to our customers.
Karen Burk
We see it in lumber, concrete, insulation, drywall and vinyl. Every week we see memos [from suppliers] of price increases of 5 percent to 10 percent.
Jason Deboer
The program requires project developers to buy 60% of the equipment from local suppliers.
Romulo Feijão
Money is wasted or lost to fraud, and quality of care can be jeopardized when products and services come from con artists rather than qualified suppliers.
Charles E. Grassley
We hope we would get some suppliers out of it.
Don Mcclellan
Identifying and developing strategic relationships with overseas suppliers to be able to produce off-shore are in progress.
George Gould
There was no conference call last night, we have not changed our guidance to analysts, nor have we told our suppliers anything different than we have for the last 30 days or so. At our analyst meeting, we projected that sales of handsets would grow 25-to-30 percent in the second half, on a dollar basis.
Rusty Brashear
We should be considered an arms merchant. We are suppliers of technology to businesses that are serving their customers.
Steve Adams
Major oil companies are seeking technology suppliers who can serve their needs across regions or around the world. Radiant delivers reliable touch-screen systems along with comprehensive services to any market that is strategic for our customers.
Mark Schoen
We believe investors are justifiably growing increasingly concerned that production disruptions due to labor disputes are increasingly probable as there are currently two suppliers in bankruptcy with another more than likely headed in that direction.
Joseph Amaturo
I tried to get a load (of Sheetrock) for friends of mine in New Orleans, and I can't find anybody to sell it to me because they need it here for their local suppliers.
Chris Sheridan
We believe this order is a significant benefit for a number of suppliers.
Jack Butler
Suppliers get a view into our needs and expectations and can then help to educate our engineering folks about what they can expect of the supplier.
Jerry Griffin
I believe Russia will still be an important source but we need to develop new suppliers, and they will look for other clients.
Andris Piebalgs
Market direction likely hinges upon protracted negotiations in China, where offshore suppliers hope to narrow an estimated $35 to $40 per metric ton price gap between delivered prices in China and other major export destinations.
David Silver
OEMs were outsourcing, reducing their vendor base and practicing lean techniques. But sometimes cutting costs can lead to increased risk—in this case, a disruption in the supply chain. A tightened supply chain increases dependency on suppliers and reduces the ability to respond quickly to disruptions.
Jim Lawton
We believe our investment will add strength to the partnership by helping to keep prices low for consumers and will offer new opportunities to suppliers in the region for additional business development.
John Menzer
Work as hard with your internal customers as you do with outside suppliers to establish long-term relationships. That's how to win.
Janice Stephenson
Add in dozens of suppliers tied to them that are failing, and it's pretty ugly.
Dennis Desrosiers
We expect all of our suppliers to provide parts in a timely fashion, in the most competitive price and highest quality.
Tom Wickham
Some suppliers have tried to tell GM that not everybody needs to be global, not all the parts need to be global. But they just figure that's the way they're going to get the cheaper price.
Jim Gillette
You can find suppliers here, but it's maybe two or three Taiwanese companies. In China, I can find 15 suppliers in the Shanghai area alone, and that makes it more competitive.
Hana Ceo Richard Han
The dilemma is we use 66,000 gallons of fuel a day.. Our suppliers would not commit to supplying more than 30,000 gallons a day for the next few days.
Donald Tudor
Our challenge is for our suppliers to bring it all home or we will not be able to do it.
Danny Diperna
I can't even tell you how much people have called to help. Suppliers competitors, vendors, family, friends.
Larry Kuhn
We needed to bring suppliers into the Wal-Mart environment and let them tell us how to grow.
Linda Dillman
While most larger retailers have a broad spectrum of suppliers and are not unduly exposed to China, other retailers will be forced to look at sourcing from other low cost countries.
Kevin Hawkins
Some may sign with other suppliers, but we believe TVA offers products and services that will prove to be the best choice.
Gil Francis
In era where the consumer is being characterized as not being loyal and always looking for the best deal they can find, airlines have done a great thing with loyalty programs, which gives suppliers an advantage.
Charles Buchwalter
Bandwidth pricing in Asia is still declining. We see lower unit pricing from our suppliers. The question is how long that trend will continue. It won't be forever.
Steve Lowe
The Toyota group affiliates will have the best performance in earnings as well as in shares. With Toyota's record capital investment, it's quite obvious that the parts suppliers also need to expand.
Yoshihiro Okumura
The industry has suffered from fragmentation for a long time. The new company will have pricing power over customers and raw material suppliers.
Yasuhiro Yamaguchi
The number of product shipments by Japanese companies is far below of top ranking suppliers' figures.
Takenori Ugari
All things considered, their earnings held up better than expected. But their cash flow was worse than expected. They have to pay their suppliers for parts, but they have no revenue coming in. It looks like they're burning off about $2 billion a month. That's a lot.
Stephen Girsky
We knew suppliers still had to get paid.
Ryan Rybolt
Moving forward, BI will become part of business innovation itself. Sharing information with customers, suppliers, and other stakeholders increases loyalty and in many industries provides competitive differentiation. BI will become pervasive in operational and workplace applications as organizations seek to optimize their business.
Frank Buytendijk
We do everything we can to stand by suppliers who are financially challenged.
Peter Rosenfeld
There're not there for one-step bargain deals with their suppliers. They're there to establish long-term relationship and connections that could be five, ten, or twenty years.
Danny Miller
Consortiums definitely have channel power, which means they have the ability to coerce small suppliers.
Karen Peterson
He may ask for a harder line with suppliers, and more cost reductions, and eliminations of brands, ... Those are all disruptive demands.
Gerald Meyers
We're in the process of extending Lean to the supply base. We're working with suppliers to attack waste.
Perry Mulligan
The more you cluster, the more suppliers will come. Then you'll even have local tool and die shops start up.
James Ricci
A merger of the second and third largest suppliers of architectural and decorative paint has the potential to lead to a significant reduction in competition and increased prices.
Graeme Samuel
With most of the drawings complete, our suppliers and fabrication plants can begin manufacturing detailed parts.
Mike Delaney
The only inadvertent sort of thing is it sets us up as an either/or, ... You're either with Microsoft or you're against them. The market doesn't want to hear that. The market wants suppliers who have customers' interests in mind. The perception is somehow that we want Microsoft users to fail. We want Microsoft users to succeed better than before.
Robert Young
We went to court about this and won. But that's not the point. They wanted to see the bits of paper that document what we demand of our suppliers {in the way of ethical treatment of their own employees} and we didn't have them.
Rowland Hill
I foresee a lot of opportunities for suppliers.
Russell Vandiver
The pilot did not set out to get a business benefit, but the overriding fact is that we will have to fall in line with suppliers.
Mark Butler
If we could get to the point where we're the suppliers of the lettuce, that would be a great thing.
Valerie Robinson
Our commitment of offering customers and suppliers an advantage in oilfield metals, service and solutions stands firm. The acquisition of the Ryerson oilfield distribution assets strengthens our ability to provide our customers an expanded product range and tailored inventories that will better serve their growing global needs.
Dave Warren
In the very short term there is no risk because countries have reserves and there are other suppliers.
Amadeu Altafaj Tardio
Partnering is the air we need to breathe. A large network of strategic alliances built from customers, suppliers, research partners and even competitors contributes more than revenues. Alliances also help a company access and assimilate complex knowledge from disparate sources.
Andrea Cuomo
Because suppliers and retailers need to be able to communicate with one another, data exchange standards that would allow them to communicate more effectively are also evolving.
Cyndy Renfrow
The suppliers can raise the prices. They have no reason not to.
Craig Kemmerer
I believe this is tied to a recession, maybe a mild recession, but a recession in that the amount of revenue reported by telecom suppliers and dot.com companies will be lower.
William Schrader
