Dave Horne, coined "supplier relationship management" Options

[thekohser]

And he's "widely known" for it?

Horne is widely known as the first person to coin the term Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) to describe the class of software and Internet applications used by major organizations to purchase goods and monitor supplier performance. While at i2 Technologies, Dave Horne gave numerous speeches and was widely quoted on the topic of SRM [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]

Is there an independent, reliable source in that lot?

Anyway, Google News seems to first pin Horne with "Supplier Relationship Management" around May 2001.

Google News also seems to track 115 instances of "Supplier Relationship Management" being tied to software (at least semantically in an article), PRIOR to May 2001 -- no mention of Horne.

So, another great "fact" presented by Wikipedia, in service of the mission of a single purpose account, who seems so closely aligned with Dave Horne that "she" redirects "her" User page to "his" article.

In this case, if any "charges" are brought against Daphne Lynn and/or the Dave Horne article, I have no interest in being attributed as the catalyst or agent of discovery. This one's a freebie for you Wikipediots.

I've seen so many bogus BLPs like this, I've given up documenting or counting them.
Probably thousands, if not tens of thousands, on WP at any one time.

Don't bother looking for more, Greg, you'll never find them "all".
