A firm should always have more than one supplier. I work in the aerospace industry. As such, there are many certifications and standards that each supplier must be and be held to. It is very difficult to attain these and therefore exiting a supplier is rigorous work. Making a good decision in the first place is the key. However, having too many suppliers can cause complications with delivery frequency, pricing, or quality (Vonderembse, & White, 2013). Variations in any of these can cause complications for a firm. If I were CEO of a company, I'd rather mitigate the risk of quality, pricing, natural disasters, or otherwise by having multiple suppliers than relying solely on only one or two and risking everything on their performance.

There are several parts that we are always waiting for from suppliers. Some of those have less than a 50% acceptance rate meaning that less than half of the ones the supplier sends us to meet our quality specs. We end up doing rework in house to try and salvage as many parts as we can due to the processing time and cost to qualify new suppliers. There are also situations where parts are designed for certain operations to be done in house and others, outsourced. As a general rule of thumb, though, I think every firm should have multiple suppliers.
