How To Build Credibility With Suppliers For Your Eprocurement Initiative
It is up to the buyers to enforce practices in their sourcing process that build trust with suppliers. These practices assume greater importance when companies resort to eProcurement.
Companies that have been successful in building a credible eSourcing initiative tend to adopt the following practices. These practices have been shown to encourage suppliers to participate in a fair and competitive manner.
Buyers agree to the following steps that establish credibility
Detail out the requirements clearly. While the incumbent suppliers understand even the unstated requirements, the new ones wholly rely on the RFP for clarity. So explain the specifications and service level expectations as clearly as possible.
Award only to the suppliers who bid online. Manage suppliers who don’t like to bid online with great urgency and importance. A handful of such suppliers can derail the entire eSourcing platform initiative.
If lots (containing multiple line items) have been created and suppliers are bidding at a lot level, then award at the lot level only. Do not attempt to optimize the award at a line-item level later. This is unfair to suppliers who tried their best to be competitive at the lot level.
Do not simply eliminate suppliers who tend to quote too high or too low. Give them a second look. Discuss the pricing with them. It is possible that they have misunderstood the specifications or requirements.
Communicate the award scenario clearly. When suppliers bid aggressively, they need to know what’s up for grabs. Buyers must state the number of suppliers that might get awarded and the share of the business that they can win depending on their competitive position.
Some additional best practices while conducting an online auction
Qualify suppliers before the auction. It is advisable not to have unqualified suppliers compete with qualified ones. It does not make a level playing field and will definitely cause issues during the award.
Award business at prices bid online. Do not negotiate offline with suppliers, especially with the best-bid suppliers. While it may seem rational to do so, every supplier will get to know of this practice and they will not honor future auction procurement.
Do not place phantom bids during a live auction. This is an unethical practice and can have serious ramifications. Buyers do this thinking that suppliers will not get to know. But when they do, they will refuse to bid online again.
Encourage suppliers to conduct themselves fairly. They must…
Respond completely and honestly. The qualifying questions have been asked for a reason that needs to be responded to in its entirety. Do not shortlist suppliers that have provided incomplete documentation.
Submit all bids as legally valid ones. Do not give lame reasons later as to why a submitted bid must not be considered.
Bid online and as aggressively as possible. Suppliers must understand that there is no scope to negotiate prices offline. They must bid online aggressively to win the business instead of using other means to convince buyers of their capability.
eProcurement does not mean that everything happens online. Supplier management is more important in this case. Understanding and proactively addressing supplier concerns to bid online is vital to the success of an eProcurement initiative. Spend quality time managing suppliers offline while the bidding happens online.

Good Omens Fanfic Friday (05 Jul 2024)
As I mentioned earlier this week, I've concluded this fandom is bigger than its author, and I'm going to continue my Fanfic Friday recommendations. The authors are too talented to see their works languish.
The fact that this is the smallest list in a long time is coincidental. Just wasn't finding as much this week. I suspect that'll change next week. I'm already in the middle of two I think will make the list.
Living With It (16K; Rated E) by @kitcat-italica
Reverse Omens AU. Hell won, and the angels are being auctioned off as slaves to the demons. The demon Azira will do what he can to protect his love, the angel Crowley, but Hell is a very dangerous place. This is a very dark story, so mind the tags.
There's no non-con between Azira and Crowley, but they live on the razor's edge of danger all the time, so I hesitate to say this story has a happy ending. It has as happy of an ending as is possible in this world.
***
Handle Me With Care: Of Bachelors and Booksellers (79K; Rated E)
Human AU. Crowley agrees to be the bachelor on a reality TV show where twenty women compete to earn his heart and an engagement. But he can't stop thinking about his cute blond handler.
I loathe reality TV, but I love stories set on reality TV shows (Married At First Sight by @aracloptia is my favorite fake marriage AU). I've never seen an episode of The Bachelor or whatever spinoffs exist, but I understood the gist of it nonetheless.
Anthony Crowley is a workaholic who left London 25 years ago and never looked back.
Until he - somehow - finds himself as the new middle-aged bachelor in a dating show that he doesn’t really have any interest in taking part in.
For one, there’s the problem of the female suitors - not great for a man who’s always gravitated more towards men.
And then there’s the adorable, white-haired man who’s supposed to be his handler, but who makes him feel more than any of the women combined …

Spyfest After Dark Author Reveals
The time has come to reveal the authors for the exchange fics, we hope you've all been enjoying the fics and the guessing! We had seventeen people participating and ended up with three circles for our matching, consisting of 4, 6, and 7 people each.
Without further ado, here are the fics and their authors:
Falling Slowly by RavenJames for Sirius4Life (Yalex, M, 5.1k) Alex knows that he’s been sold at the auction to someone who doesn’t wish him well but he’s not too bothered by that. He still has a tsunami to prevent and he will deal with that pervert in no time. The only flaw in his perfect plan is that the buyer happens to be Yassen Gregorovich. Written for the SpyFest After Dark 2023 for the prompt: “Instead of sending Alex to the organ factory, he decides to sell Alex to the highest bidder amongst the Scorpia Board and Scorpia’s best operatives.”
No Harm Done by Sirius4Life for Sivan325 (Yalex, E, 1.4k) Prompts: Soulmates, Enemies to Lovers, Finding out by accident that you and your crush feel the same way.
Guardian Alpha by Sivan325 for greenkite (Yalex, G, 1.0k) "Are you sure it's a good idea?" Alex asked his best friend, who only smirked at him. "Definitely," Tom replied.
lingonberry, spruce by greenkite for fredbassett (Yalex, T, 2.6k) He opens the unlocked front door, noting that it hasn’t been forced. There is a black wool coat on the coat stand, and, bizarrely, a dress cane in the umbrella stand. From the front room, he can hear the faint sounds of a piano playing over the radio. A suspicion starts to form. Alex drops his backpack on the floor by the coat stand and shoulders open the door to the front room.
High Wire by fredbassett for LastlyMatt (Yalex, T, 5.1k) “Well, this is embarrassing, isn’t it?” Alex sauntered into the dimly lit basement, positively oozing fake concern in a slime trail that would have left a giant slug feeling justifiably proud.
At the End of the World by LastlyMatt for RavenJames (Yalex, T, 5.9k) After spending years in the apocalypse, Alex tries to do something good. Of course, it backfires, and of course, Yassen is there to help him out.
A dangerous Life by Polarnacht for turtle_snail (Yalex, E, 7.8k) When Alex and Yassen’s paths cross once more during a mission, they have to decide: Friend or foe - or maybe something entirely different?
A Tale of Two Assassins by turtle_snail for Myulalie (Yalex, M, 18.9k) On one side, there was Alex, the youngest ever Malagosto graduate. Alex was never expecting to see the MI6 agent Yassen Gregorovich again. Yet, here he was. Alex really should take care of the problem, but for once he was hesitant. Yassen knew something, and Alex just had to find out what it was. On the other, was Yassen, the Ex-scorpia operative turned special agent. Yassen understood that he was going into a dangerous solo mission. But, it might be his only chance to find Alex Rider and bring him in. For Myulalie whose prompt was Role reversal (MI6!Yassen and Scorpia!Alex)
A Little Piece of Cornwall by Myulalie for GrapefruitZest (Yalex, T, 4.6k) Alex left the service in his twenties with only chronic pains and a shitload of trauma to his name, convinced that all the people he had known and come to care for were dead. Not quite retired, but definitely working somewhere unrelated to intelligence now, he struggles to put his life back on track. A ghost from his past shows up one day, threatening to destroy everything Alex built so far. So Alex keeps Yassen at arm’s length, not willing to get involved in whatever nefarious purpose that brought Yassen back from the dead. Everything is not as it seems though, and Yassen might simply be trying to build a normal life for himself as well…
These Walls are Caving In by GrapefruitZest for Storm7 (Yalex, M, 3.8k) Alex thought he had it all: successful MI6 employee by day (and some nights too). Dutiful boyfriend of Yassen Gregorowich by night. Unfortunately, MI6 did not quite see things his way.
in between the lines by Storm7 for kelkblr (Yalex, T, 7.0k) Deep in the Peruvian mountains, Alex Rider is being held captive at a labor camp. Yassen is there too, in uniform, and on the other side of the bars. The assassin wants to keep his little spy alive, but Alex isn't making it easy.
What remains when hope is lost by kelkblr for Morfox (Yalex, T, 31.8k) It was meant to be a straightforward joint mission, but when disaster struck Alex found himself stranded alone, injured and with no way home.
When Yassen Calls by Morfox for Polarnacht (Yalex, T, 2.9k) London life for Alex: tea, traffic and treating Yassen’s latest scratch.
Plucked by Strange_Soulmates for DantesThird (Alex/OMC, Yassen&Alex, E, 4.3k) Alex's mission goes off without a hitch for once, and when the MI6 Agent posing as his father suggests they celebrate, Alex thinks nothing of it. But Alex's partner has a very specific post-mission reward in mind: Alex himself.
Avunculate by DantesThird for Rirren (Alex/Ian, Alex&Ian, E, 6.1k) When a man from Ian's work spots him and Alex on vacation, he sees an opportunity for revenge.
Contain An Inferno by Rirren for TheOtherBlue (Yalex, E, 4.3k) Yassen is checking up on Wilby after Ian’s death when he discovers a teenager chained up in the bedroom. Alex.
A Timely Rescue by TheOtherBlue for Strange_Soulmates (Yalex, E, 7.1k) When Alex travels back in time to the night Ian was killed, he has to rush to stop history from repeating itself, and finds himself face to face with the mysterious man with the scar that he met at Point Blanc.
We hope you have enjoyed this Spyfest After Dark event, and thank you all so much for participating! We were blown away by all the great fics coming out of this exchange. Please give them some love if you haven't already!

Rating: E
Words: 90,556
Warnings: NA
Description: Eccentric CEO Dazai Osamu has been trying to die for the past seven years. Failure after failure gets him thinking: if you can't kill yourself, get someone else to do it. When he hires a hitman to do the job, it turns out this plan may not be so simple.

“picking a flower that blooms on the heart for you” by burgundytshirt
Rating: M
Words: 44,525
Warnings: NA
Description: The question is obvious at this point. To die, or to ask Dazai for help? Chuuya is so choked by this question that his breakfast is lodged in his throat, unable to be swallowed. (Or, Chuuya would much rather die than let Dazai find out he has hanahaki disease.)
🗣️: keep in mind this is a translation of the og fic but don’t let this deter you cause it’s A MASTERPIECE- this same author translated another beloved fic called “the liars house” and they are both 🤌🏼- i’m not the biggest fan of hanahaki fics but this one is the exception- THE EXCEPTION

Words: 118,816
Warnings: creator chose not to use warnings

That, coupled with the excessively aggressive entrance, told Dazai enough to know who it was. Dazai sighed loftily and turned around slowly. ��Hey there, shrimp,” he drawled. “You lost, or am I actually stuck with you?” Motorcycle Guy dropped the two duffel bags he was holding. Dazai watched his face as it morphed from confusion, to recognition, and finally to anger. “You!”

“Baby Executive” by BlowingYourMind
Rating: T
Words: 101,652
Warnings: NA
Description: Dazai's normally boring morning was shattered when a small pair of arms wrapped themselves around his knees and big azure eyes blinked up at him partnered with a stupidly happy grin. Or Chuuya is hit with an ability that reverses his age.
🗣️: If all goes wrong rely on BlowingYourMind to give a story you can chew on- this story has EVERYTHING i love it
“My Body is Your Body (I Won't Tell Anybody)” by thereweregiants

Rating: E
Words: 23,633
Warnings: NA
Description: “Hanguang-jun,” Wei Wuxian repeats. His heart clenches. He wants—but he’d really meant to have this nightmare stuff down before they met again, so he wouldn’t find himself relying on Lan Wangji’s nearness. He’s not supposed to go back yet. But he’s so tired, and his will crumbles. “Yeah,” he says. “All right. Take me back to Gusu with you.”
🗣️: this one is a lil angsty and sweet- you deal with wwx being a stubborn hardass and wangxian being stupid, but they figure shit out
“Wrong Turn, Right Place” by diamondbruise
Ratings: E
Words: 71,309
Warnings: creator chose not to use warnings
Description: modern!wwx takes a wrong turn and ends up in the cultivation world
🗣️: if you take ANYTHING from this list it’s that you MUST read this- this is the funniest shit i’ve read in awhile- modern day wwx beefing with cultivator lwj over robes is not something i’d expect to read but heavily enjoyed nonetheless

Alessandro Tofanelli. (no obvious source—see below. please let me know if you can find a real source or any other details)
this was previously posted to tumblr in much lower resolution (640x634 pixels). the above is the best-quality (least-downsized) copy of the image I could find through reverse image search and other likely searches
the artist does not seem to have a dedicated portfolio site. there's a facebook page, but I don't see this piece on there. there are different subsets of his work on the following sites (the selection possibly varying with auctions coming and going or galleries disappearing)—
Facebook
Galleria Gagliardi
MutualArt
artnet
floren
some random post on blogspot
the specific image posted here isn't from any of the above. it's from another art auction site, “1stdibs”
the site doesn't have any listings for Alessandro Tofanelli anymore, but the direct link to the 1500x1485 image file still worked (and it doesn't seem to be a janky blurry up-resizing of a smaller image)
so anyhow, unfortunately, I didn't find a title or a year it was made or anything else like that. if anyone can find this out (or find a proper source) please let me know!
(btw, google's reverse image search's biggest result was still only 960x950
still better than the original tumblr upload, but it's always worth checking multiple reverse image searches if you want to find the highest-quality version of some image. though you still have to sift through the “big” results to look for shitty upscaling, or to check if it's actually a photo of a reproduction or w/e)

Harnessing Wind Energy | Juniper Green Energy
Harnessing Wind Energy : The India Imperative
In a global context dominated by concerns about climate change and a growing emphasis on sustainability, India is making significant strides toward a more environmentally friendly future. The nation has set an ambitious target of achieving 500 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy by 2030, with a substantial portion, 140 GW, expected to come from wind power. This commitment positions India as a trailblazer on the global stage. The growth in India's wind power capacity has been remarkable, reaching around 43 GW in March 2023, a significant leap from a mere 1.2 GW in 2000. This accomplishment of harnessing wind energy, has propelled India to the fourth position globally in terms of installed wind capacity.
Presently, wind power constitutes about 10% of India's total installed capacity and a substantial 25% of its overall renewable capacity. India's aspirations are high, with approximately 11 GW of wind projects currently under construction. The government plans to award around 10 GW of wind projects annually, starting from the fiscal year 2024, to meet the ambitious target of 500 GW of renewable capacity by 2030. The overarching goal is to fulfil nearly 50% of the country's electricity needs through renewable energy sources by 2030, ultimately achieving a net-zero economy by 2070.
A key strategy driving India's wind energy expansion is the integration of wind and solar power. Many states with high wind potential also have abundant solar resources, such as Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Gujarat. This synergy allows for greater benefits, with wind-solar hybrid projects capable of achieving a capacity utilization factor (CUF) of up to 65%, compared to the 20%-40% CUF of standalone projects.
When considering the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE), wind power emerges as the second most competitive renewable energy source, with costs ranging from INR 2.8 to 3.3 per kilowatt-hour (kWh). This is approximately 40% lower than the current landed grid tariff to consumers. Wind-solar hybrid projects fall within a similar price range, positioning themselves between standalone solar and wind sources. Wind-solar hybrid projects, when combined with battery storage, provide an appealing approach for ensuring continuous power supply. Although the cost of batteries remains a challenge currently, it is anticipated that by 2026, as battery prices decrease, these solutions will become more competitive, with LCOEs ranging from INR 3.8 to 4.2 per kWh.
Harnessing the wind energy industry is expected to receive a significant boost with the shift away from the reverse auction regime. The Ministry of Power's recent announcement replaces reverse auctions with a "Single Stage, Two Envelope, closed bid basis," providing the necessary impetus to the wind industry. However, despite the impressive expansion of India's wind capacity, domestic manufacturing capacity still lags. The government's plan to auction around 10 GW annually underscores the need to ramp up domestic manufacturing and enhance support systems such as logistics, digitization, analytics, and skilled manpower.
With demand for wind power coming from various sectors, including central, state, and commercial and industrial procurement, it is estimated that India will witness the commissioning of 70-80% of new wind capacity auctioned in the next five years. This demand is crucial for distribution companies (DISCOMs) that require a consistent power supply for efficient planning. To ensure grid stability, a mix of renewables and other sources, including energy storage systems (ESS), is required. Recent auctions for 1 GW of round-the-clock projects indicate pricing ranging from INR 3.99 to 4.27 per kWh, with the majority projects integrating renewable energy with thermal sources. As ESS costs decline, it is expected that more round-the-clock projects relying solely on renewable energy will further boost wind installations.
India's commitment to achieving carbon neutrality by 2070 requires a comprehensive shift away from coal generation toward renewable energy, with wind playing a critical role. Initiatives aimed at repowering—which entail swapping out outdated parts for more modern turbines—will improve project economics and accelerate the expansion of wind installations in India. Additionally, the expected increase in Renewable Purchase Obligation (RPO) targets, reaching up to 30% by FY25 and 43% by FY30, will further bolster demand growth. Long-term prospects for India's wind industry remain strong as the country transitions to competitive, low-carbon technologies that promote sustainable growth and a cleaner, greener future.
