Thomas: It was nice of you to describe to us your experiences in Multi
Sourcing design vrs Single sourcing.

Sure life is hell when you have you have to find 2 or more partners; but look what happens in real life. If one's partner dies or is divorced one usually find a near match.

If your supplier had been destroyed thru a Fire like Accident, would you go and advise your Boss to close shop. I am sure you would not,you would be dashing off to your Catalogue and function library for the fix. Thats real life .

All I am suggesting is do it earlier ; thats what Multisourcing is all about.
