Abstract
By expanding its membership to include suppliers, CII recognizes that suppliers of key engineered systems and components can and should play a significant role in the pursuit of CII goals. CII, therefore, established the Reforming Supplier Relationships Research Team to explore the potential for reforming traditional owner/contractor/supplier relationships in engineer-procure-construct (EPC) projects to enhance the ability of suppliers to contribute more meaningfully to this process.
