A supplier had applied for an opportunity to supply products to us. After the internal processes, he didn’t qualify, and it was communicated to him. He called back unhappy for not being considered. I explained to him how he didn’t meet the requirements. He accepted and said he will apply in the next one. I am glad he accepted it positively.
