Free Vendor Management Flow Chart
The Vendor Management Flow Chart provides a clear and structured visual overview of the entire vendor lifecycle—from identifying potential suppliers to evaluating ongoing performance. It outlines each stage of vendor engagement, including assessing requirements, sourcing candidates, shortlisting, and initiating contact. The process continues through proposal requests, evaluations, negotiations, and agreement formalization. Once vendors are onboarded, performance is regularly monitored through defined decision points that guide whether to continue, renew, or end partnerships. With built-in protocols for contract renewal and offboarding, this flowchart helps organizations maintain efficient, transparent, and strategic vendor management practices.
