There is only one company with one location. It is difficult to substitute a sole source.
single source：
The risk is slightly lower with a single source than it is with a sole source. A single source has one supplier with several locations.

To decide on the appropriate forms of supplier relationships today, we argue that there are
three main dimensions to be considered:
• A more complex environment. There are different solutions for different kinds of
goods and markets depending on supply network, product complexity and legal
issues pertaining to immaterial software rights.
• Supply chain efficiency. Three dimensions define supply chain efficiency: Agility,
the ability to handle short term change, Adaptability, the ability to handle long term
change and Alignment, the ability to ensuring that the interest of the members also
is in the interest of the supply network as a whole. All three aspects must be considered when choosing the appropriate form of supplier relationship. • Product life cycle. Depending on where in the life cycle a product is, the number of potential suppliers and customers vary; hence a different type of relationship is
needed.
