A variety of tools is applied, such as the Kraljic Matrix that is used to sort suppliers. The key findings note that different training activities include negotiation simulations and skills to prepare and help procurement officers for the journey. Another key finding ius that detailed planning and analytical structures accompany objectives and concession tracking. Another key finding note that supply relations are strategically classified on issues of risk and consequences as far as supply management is concerned.

Negotiation
Negotiation is a mutual business interaction between or among people and organizations in an attempt to reach desired goals, resolve conflicts or avoid controversy. It encompasses collaboration, negotiation, and part of agreeing to reach agreeable terms that will benefit all persons of interest. In procurement and supply context, negotiation aims at acquiring resources at the best rate, at the same time maintaining and developing supplier relations.
The negotiation model developed by Bailey et al is a strategic model particularly in procurement and supply. The model outlines three key stages: Pre-negotiation Preparation, Negotiation/Interaction, and Post-negotiation Follow-up.
- Pre-negotiation Preparation: This stage is very important since it creates a platform that facilitates negotiations. It covers the collection and evaluation of inside and outside context data including things like suppliers’ capacities, estimate of future demand, historical price information, regulative requirements and the likes (OPR, 2021). There are also the analyses of stakeholders as well as the bargaining power which is done by applying some tools like Mendelow Matrix, Porter’s five forces model and Kraljic Matrix as far as the supplier market power is concerned. Key issues and/ or risks are as follows while strategies are planned as follows. Moreover, the roles in the team are assigned and the schedule for the meeting and its organization is developed.
- Negotiation/Interaction: This is phase involves bargaining such that different parties talk in order to come to the agreement. It entails getting the most out of a situation by controlling confrontation, finding solutions, and cobbling rapport (OPR,2021). The most important requirements are the possibility of continuous, open, and trustful communication in the inter-organizational relationship, market knowledge, and the systematic assessment of the counterparty.
- Post-negotiation Follow-up: This stage keeps the customers on the right track and look at how to resolve any issue that may be remaining after the contract has been signed. The follow-up phase is critical since it preserves the supplier relations, and at the same time deal with contractual issues.
The implementation of the Bailey et al. model in ROSHN itself highlights strong prospects for achieving advanced procurement sourcing strategies by mapping a significant investment in technology and infrastructure into Vision 2030 in Saudi Arabia. This structured approach is helpful to ROSHN of accomplishing its mission of delivering sustainable communities through the strategic positioning of suppliers and management of contracts.

- This was established after the post-negotiation review which brought out fundamental lessons about the supplier and our company’s negotiation pattern.
- As for certain important aspects, we indeed secured favourable financing conditions; yet, problems arose in attempting to synchronize delivery schedules since such conditions are affected by external supply chain factors.
- The supplier had the better BATNA and acted in a cooperative but very assertive way, and elaborated why the correct approach to negotiations is more equal.
- Further, the experience showed how flexible one has to be, how innovative, and how it pays to be more interested in long-term partnership rather than quick profit. Therefore, it will be useful in the future to improve the techniques of negotiation, improve the knowledge about the actions of suppliers, and improve intercompany and supplier cooperation.
- This will ensure that in future procurement negotiations; better outcomes are achieved.
- ROSHN should ensure that all negotiations within the next 6 months include specific metrics for delivery timelines, quality standards, and service levels, aiming for a 90% satisfaction rate in supplier compliance with these criteria. This approach will help secure more balanced and sustainable agreements.
- Over the next 12 months, ROSHN should develop a supplier relationship management program with bi-annual assessments to track and improve partnership quality. Target at least a 15% increase in supplier engagement scores by the end of the year to gain favorable bargaining positions during market downturns.
- Within 1 month of each major negotiation, conduct debriefing sessions to analyze performance, identify strengths, and address weaknesses. The goal is to improve negotiation effectiveness by at least 10% in the subsequent quarter through targeted adjustments based on these evaluations.
- Within the next 4 months, involve at least 80% of key stakeholders in sourcing strategy meetings to ensure alignment and gather input on critical decisions. This engagement aims to reduce misalignment issues by 20% within the year, resulting in smoother implementation of sourcing strategies.
