How to Appraise the best strategy to source for microchips based on portfolio analysis. Give reasons to support in the context of the automotive industry.
Note: The procurement spend on microchips is a small fraction of the Bill Of Materials

Examine which procurement objectives can be best served via 'single sourcing.' Give reasons
Another issue in determining the appropriate sourcing strategy is whether to choose a large or small supplier. Again, show which procurement objectives can be best served with a large supplier. Provide supporting reasons.
