The Differences Between Commercial and Consumer Acquisition
• Number of suppliers• Power of influence the price• Final consumer-industrial
• Large volumes• Special expertise• Special discounts• Impulse buying• Cost of failure
![Page 11: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
FINANCIAL SIGNIFICANCE OF PURCHASING
• In manufacturing firms, supply area represents the largest single category of spend, ranging from 50%-
85%.
• Carrefour purchases in 2005 from Turkey-300 million €• IKEA (from 1998 to recent) 1.4 billion $
![Page 12: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Direct & Indirect Contributions of the Purchasing/Supply Function
• Profit-leverage effect• Return-on-assets effect• Inventory reductions• Information source• Effect on efficiency• Effect on competitive position and customer satisfaction• Effect on image• Enhancing performance of other departments and supply
chain • Ideas from suppliers may result in improved design, lower
manufacturing cost…• Impact on strategic goals and objectives

Challenges Facing Purchasing
• B2B e-commerce• Need to control unit costs• Need to reduce the total cost of acquisition• The increasing influence of suppliers on the purchaser’s ability to respond
to end-customers needs• Increased reliance on fewer suppliers
• Trend towards reliance on suppliers for design and build responsibilities
for complete subassemblies and subsystems
• Measurement
• Purchase of non-traditional goods and services
• Recognition by management
![Page 17: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Placement of Purchasing Authority
Centralized, where the authority and responsibility for most supply-related functions are assigned to
a corporate headquarter.
Decentralized, where authority and responsibility for supply related functions are dispersed
throughout the divisional, business or site levels..
Hybrid, where authority and responsibility are shared between a central supply organization
and business units, divisions, or operating plants.
![Page 18: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Purchasing and Supply Teams
• Cross-functional teams• Teams with suppliers• Teams with customers• Teams with suppliers and customers• Supplier councils - key suppliers• Purchasing councils - purchasing personnel
only• Consortiums
![Page 19: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The Essential Steps of Purchasing Process
1. Recognition of need2. Clarify needs-description of need3. Identify and select suppliers4. Approval, contract and purchase order5. Receive materials6. Measure and manage supplier performance
![Page 20: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
E-procurement activities in the process
• Creating requisition• Placing purchase order• RFQ-request for quotation• Reverse auctions• Performance evaluations• Procurement spend analysis
![Page 21: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
1.RECOGNITION OF NEED
• Any purchase originates with the recognition of a definite need by someone or some system in the organization.
• Planned or unplanned needs
• What the requirements of the unit are-what, how much, and when it is needed?
![Page 22: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
2. DESCRIPTION OF THE NEED
• No purchasers can be expected to buy without knowing exactly what the external customers want.
• It is essential to have an accurate description of the need requested.
• Purchasing and the user, or the cross-functional sourcing team, share responsibility for accurately describing the item or service needed.
• If the user/buyer writes unclear or ambiguous descriptions, or over-specifies materials or quality levels, this will lead to unnecessary costs.
![Page 23: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
2. DESCRIPTION OF THE NEED(Cont’d)
Ways of passing the needs
–Purchase requisitions(for materials)–Statement of work (SOW) (for services)
![Page 24: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Standard Requisition
– Date of requisition– Requisition number– Originating department– Account to be charged/unit costs– Complete description of material or service desired– Quantity– Date of material or service needed– Any special shipping or service-delivery instructions– Signature of authorized requisitioner
![Page 25: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
![Page 26: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
ERP Purchase requisition
![Page 27: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
3. IDENTIFY & SELECT THE SUPPLIERS
3 alternatives:
1.Make internally
2. Work with existing –approved suppliers(maverick buying-working with the unapproved
suppliers/ off-contract buying)
3. Find new suppliers
![Page 28: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Step 1. create long list of suppliers
Step 2. shorten the list to 4-6 potential suppliers
Step 3. competitive bidding and negotiation request for quotation or proposal (RFQ) RFP or RFB
3. IDENTIFY & SELECT THE SUPPLIERS
![Page 29: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
RFQ
• A request for quotation (RFQ) is a standard business process whose purpose is to invite suppliers into a bidding process to bid on specific products or services.
Sending out a RFQ to all suppliers on the short list-description of item-quantity and date needed-delivery location-quality…etc.
• The bid does not have to mean the end of the bidding. Multiple rounds can follow or even a Reverse auction can follow to generate the best market price.
![Page 30: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Reverse or E-Auction
• Forward auction versus reverse auction• Auction run through a buyer’s web site
• Describing the requirements through a website- online submission of bids
• Open-can see the summary of competing prices
![Page 31: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
![Page 32: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Reverse auction process
![Page 33: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Intermediation in Reverse Auction
![Page 34: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Step 4. Compare the submitted quotations and select the best supplier-costs, payment terms, product details, contact person, delivery details...etc.
![Page 35: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Competitive bidding is effective when;
• Orders are large • Specifications are clear• Market place is competitive• Enough time is available for suppliers to
evaluate and respond to the request for quotation
• The buyer does not already have a preferred supplier
![Page 36: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
4. Approval, Contract and Purchase Order
• Placing on order usually involves preparation of a purchase order form
• Legally binding documents
• Front page-all information about the purchase(date, price, quantity,address…)
• Back page-standard legal conditions
• Failure to use the proper contract may result in serious legal complications
• Copies are sent to concerned stakeholders (users, accounting,…)

Blanket and Open-End Orders
• A blanket order is defined as an order the customer makes with its supplier which contains multiple delivery dates scheduled over a period of time, sometimes at predetermined prices.
• Means ‘We agreed on terms just send the items when you get the routine message- a material release’
• The cost of issuing and handling purchase orders may be reduced when conditions permit the use of blanket or open-end orders.
• A blanket order usually covers a variety of items.
• An open-end order allows for addition of items and/or extension of time.
![Page 41: Chapter 1 Procurement and Supply Management. Major Logistics Activities customer service demand forecasting/planning inventory management logistics communications](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081420/56649d755503460f94a55de6/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

VENDOR MANAGED INVENTORY
• ...is a more sophisticated merging of the ordering and inventory functions than blanket contracts
• the vendor creates orders based on demand information that they receive from the customer.
• an agreement which determines inventory levels, fill rates and costs.
• EDI, VMI software package for determining order requirements as a part of an ERP suite such as SAP or be a standalone option such as products from Blue Habanero, LevelMonitor, etc.
• Calculate a reorder point for each item based on the data and any customer information such as promotions, seasonality or new items.

Spot market
• Cash market & immediate delivery• When shippers have exception freight that is not covered by a
contract, they seek out the spot freight market.• Often, freight broker or other intermediary finds a carrier and
arranges transport.• Direct access to the spot freight market place through a load
board.• Matchmaking-enables manufacturers or intermediaries to find
carriers with access capacity on the equipments and routes the best suit their immediate needs.

How Does the Freight Exchange Work?
• Members post their loads or returnloads on the site.
• These loads are then displayed on the site for all the other members to see. The loads also go out as notifications to members based in the local area of collection or who have vehicles.
• If a member is interested in a load or returnload they will contact the member who has posted the load directly.
• Payment terms and rate are agreed between both parties.
• The job is carried out, paperwork completed, job invoiced and payment made directly between the parties concerned
• All the money on the job goes to the member carrying out the load or returnload.
