A second dimension of the task environ-

ment is

customers

, or whoever pays money to acquire

an organization’s products or services. Most McDo-

nald’s customers are individuals who buy food. But cus-

tomers need not be individuals. Schools, hospitals,

government agencies, wholesalers, retailers, and manu-

facturers are just a few of the many kinds of organiza-

tions


that

may


be

major


customers

of

other



organizations. Some institutional customers, such as

schools, prisons, and hospitals, also buy food in bulk

from restaurants such as McDonald’s.

Supplier

Suppliers

are organizations that provide

resources for other organizations. McDonald’s buys

soft-drink products from Coca-Cola; individually pack-

aged servings of ketchup, salt, and pepper from various

Organizations can serve a variety of different kinds of

customers. For example, customers can be individuals,

deliveryman, for example, is dropping off pizzas for the

staff of a hospital emergency room.

wholesalers; Big Mac ingredients from wholesale food processors; and napkins, sacks, and

wrappers from packaging manufacturers. Besides material resources such as these, busi-

nesses also rely on suppliers for information (such as economic statistics), labor (in the

form of employment agencies), and capital (from lenders such as banks). Some businesses

strive to avoid depending exclusively on particular suppliers. Others, however, find it

beneficial to create strong relationships with single suppliers.
