The world esp business world is always driven by the notion "what is in there for me?".
So while arguing and asking the other party to agree to your point of view, do let them know about the positive side for them.
There are a very few situations where it is advisable to use commercial muscles but if it is inevitable, then go for it but very very carefully.

Gather as much information as possible about the supplier.
When negotiating with supplier or anyone for that matter, "Information" plays a key part.
If you have important information about the supplier and the supplier do not have key informations about your firm, then you can use it as a leverage in your negotiation.
But make it look like it is a Win - Win situation for both the supplier and your firm.

Different situations will require different methods depending on various factors.
Following answer is for one of the situations :  The most efficient method in this situation would be the concentration on weakness points of the suppliers proposal and ignoring any points of strengths in the proposal.
Stressing importance of compliance to the terms and conditions and could it affect the decision making in terms of selecting the appropriate proposals, In other words, you should make the supplier feel that if he doesn't show enough flexibility you might move to the next proposal.

Supplier should know that different situations will require different methods depending on various factors; supplier performance with our company, supplier prequalification; emphasizing importance of compliance to the terms and conditions, and could it affect the decision making in terms of selecting the appropriate proposals, In other words, you should make the supplier feel that if he doesn't show enough flexibility you might move to the next proposal; finally the more the knowledge about the product and producer the more you gain.
