A. Train the supplier in agile approaches to help them understand the contract. Since the supplier has a long-standing relationship with the company and the issue stems from a lack of understanding of the new agile contract terms, providing training or clarification on agile practices can help bridge the gap. This approach preserves the relationship while ensuring that the supplier understands how agile contracts function, leading to smoother collaboration and a more informed partnership going forward.
