Hi,
We’re currently running a short research study to better understand how people use approved vendor lists, preferred supplier lists, approved brand lists, or similar purchasing requirements when buying or specifying products for work.
An approved vendor list is a list of suppliers, vendors, brands, or sometimes specific products that a business has approved people to buy from. Some businesses have a formal list, while others may have preferred suppliers or brands they are encouraged to use.
We’re interested in speaking to people who are involved in choosing, buying, sourcing, approving, or managing products, suppliers, vendors, or brands. This could include people working in engineering, procurement, purchasing, maintenance, operations, R&D, education, or business management.
If you’re interested in taking part, please complete the short survey below. This will help us understand whether the study is a good fit for you. If you are selected, we’ll be in touch with more details and to arrange a suitable time.
The research session will be completed remotely on our Lookback platform and will involve a relaxed conversation about how supplier approval works in your organisation, how it affects the way you search for and buy products online, and your feedback on some early design ideas.
As a thank you for taking part, you’ll receive a £25 Amazon voucher, or local equivalent, once the study has been completed.
Thanks!
