Abstract :
Most purchasers in the Netherlands, Germany and Sweden rely upon the portfolio method of Kraljic for decision making. In the USA Monszka has become extremely popular amongst purchasers with his Michigan State University (MSU) model. This article tries to compare both models and will show that both models should be used side-by-side as they enforce each other.
