Second Source for Specialty Materials and Equipment

Second sourcing or Dual sourcing is the supply chain management practice of using two suppliers for a given component, raw material, product, or service. The term dual sourcing is often used outside its strict definition to be synonymous with multi-sourcing, which can be more than two. Companies use this approach to lower the risk of relying on a single supplier, a practice called single sourcing. Sole sourcing, in contrast, means only one source is available.
