-To have uninterrupted & Effective Flow of materials with lowest cost e.g. Small shopkeeper & Department Stores - Location of Purchasing depends on type of - Industry (Food Industry, Shelf Life) - Variety (Cosmetics, Merchandizing) - Volume (Mass production) - Purchase function: Stores, inventory, planning, cost reduction, Transportation, value engineering. - Purchase is not function of -Finance (Min inventory, Max Cash Flow) - Production (Max Inventory, Min Cash Flow) - Administration (Waste of Inventory & Cash Flow) - First Source of outside supplier hence public relations, corporate image.
PURCHASER PROCESSES
Purchase Enquires Source identification and quote by tenders Negotiations & PO Follow-up with supplier, transport Stores, Quality inspection and documentation Receipt, Acceptance of correct material, rejection of incorrect material. Payment of supplier bills Purchasers at Corporate Situation are been seen as Corporate Image & Public relation officer for organization.
Centralized Procurement o Economy of Sales o Volume Negotiation o One Point contact with all o Resource Utilization o Delay in Procurement o Inferior Quality o Restoring emergency procurement o Team understanding technical specs o In process inventory due to compiled quantity o Improper Planning / Cancellations, rejections
De- Centralized Procurement o Better Commitment o Knowledge of needs o Short communication time o Better liaison & Performance Control o Speedy Execution & Short inventory o Lesser Economy of Scale o Resource waste o No Volume / Bulk discount o Higher Logistical Cost

Item Cost:
Cost corresponds to price paid for the goods themselves.
Penalty Cost:
Cost paid for each demand item which cannot be served directly from inventory.
ACQUISITION Cost:
Cost incurred apart from the Cost of Raw Material viz. - Cost of Procurement - Freight & Logistics - Follow-up & Travel Charges - Operational Overheads - Meetings, Postage, Advertisement - Other capital cost & its Depreciation Settlement of Bills: Payment deliveries from Finance for the receipt of material from vendor. Clearing the Bills, Raising payment advice, Payment follow-up and communication with Vendor. Late payments would result in non appreciated relations & increase source prices as the interest would be additional multiple due to late payment.
Accounting:
Receipt & Quality approved entry of Material & being a major cost incurred aspects refers to - Pricing Issues - Evaluation & Verification of Stocks - Credit Reversal of Taxes, Duties, Excise & other components For A/c various terminologies are used for better evaluation viz. -FIFO (First In First Out) - LIFO (Last In First Out) - Weighted Average Two year end Stock value is to be include in Balance Sheet.

AICC = Annual inventory x ICC in fraction APC = No of Order per year x Procurement Cost Per order Annual Total Cost = AICC + APC
EOQ q =
Assumptions for EOQ and valid on:-Price / unit is independent of Order Quantity - Item can be procured within zero time lag - Items are consumed at known constant rate - Items can be procured free from any restrictions - Item has fairly long shelf life, no obsolescence - ICC & APC are common to all items and they are known.

Inventory Controls :- When inventory level hits a predefined value, an order of fixed size is then launched. These are Fixed Quantity ( Q system of Procurement) Periodic Review (P System of Procurement) Order Quantity (Q) Fixed Review Time Continuous Periodic X X X Variable
Safety Stock:
We may run out of stock because of a re-supply delay or higher than anticipated usage. If we can predict demand then we merely place EOQ orders on time. Thus we need to assure a minimum level of inventory, quantity of which replicates wrt Lead Time, Consumption pattern and buffer Stock.
Service Levels:
We risk a stock-out with unpredictable demand, usage and re-supply so introducing a safety or buffer stock reduces the risks of variable demand/lead time. However, the level of material consumption would vary due to constraints / bottlenecks of other resources viz. non availability of manpower, power outrage which affects the Planning.

Average Price: The issues are valued on simple average price. Method is very accurate due to approximation. As prices are not weighted by quantities purchased, the Average prices obtained do not give a proper presentation facts. Since the valuation is
not at cost, the closing stock value will differ from actual value, giving rise to profit/loss
due to system adoption. Weighted Average: Issues of production are split into equal batches from each
shipment at stock. Being realistic methods the price levels and stabilizing cost figures.
The total unit cost is arrived with weighted average is computed to production and a new price is computed on purchases of extra material purchased.
Standard Cost: Forecasted unit price for specific period of one year or more is used to
evaluate the issue. Actual price being different from standard cost helps in evaluating the performance of purchasing.
Purchasing & Materials Management
Replacement Cost: Relevant in inflation in built economy, the purchases are valued on price paid, issue price is based on replacement price i.e. price on replacing them on date of issue. Value of stock on hand would be difference between the sum of
mistakes may be committed in more no. of transactions. Issues with indents, improper
receipts, pilferage, obsolescence, deterioration & damage due to different causes of improper storage, evaporation, spillage etc.
Management of SOS: Holding SOS results in non moving stock & cost. These includes ICC (30%), maintaining records, security cost, preservation, capital loss & opportunity cost, Manpower, space. Category of SOS: Obsolete stock are not damaged but not required & have economic value. Items like spare parts, foods & drugs, change in product designs, technological innovation, cannibalization, inaccurate forecasts, wrong purchases, wrong
codification, poor maintenance, stores handling. All SOS being non moving cannot be
obsolete being coverage from insurance. These items either have no immediate use nor are reasons of above mentioned errors. Dormant/slow moving stocks are those categories whose usage is infrequent. Reason for Obsolescence: Sudden Development of High Tech New tech

Transport Cost: Accounting to 15-20% of the cost of material purchased. At time cost of transportation is more then the cost of raw material due to Vendor located in remote place
As buyer we need to seek constant improvements in transportation to cut down transportation cost achieving greater speed and better quality of service in the light of
Railways: More economical for longer distance and heavy volumes. Road Transport: Carry assignments of smaller weights at a lesser cost. Since other mode
cant reach everywhere, RT is only mode to be relied upon for linkages of source.
Water Transport: WT is generally resorted in case of imports & is cheaper mode of transport but takes longer time. Air Transport: AT is one of the most costliest transport mode but the fastest. Perishable or smaller shelf life items are been shipped. Buyer needs to make setoff to the cost of transport wrt the opportunity cost. Containerization: Depot-Depot. Door-Door with cheaper handling charges. Reduce rates compare to AT, Lesser CIF-Taxes-Duties.
Few Dos & Dont in Transportation: Shouldnt permit vendor to ship the material Inspect Freight bills carefully
Vendors are best intangible assests to any organization and thus both new & established vendors are coming for critical review of their plant capacities, financial capabilities, performance in todays scenario. Evaluating Potential Suppliers: Step is to evaluate each prospective supplier individually. The type of evaluation required to determine supplier capability varies with the nature, criticality, complexity, and dollar value of the purchase to be made. The evaluation also varies with the supply managers or sourcing teams knowledge of the firms being considered for the order. Complex, high-dollar-value, and perhaps critical, purchases, additional evaluation steps are necessary. For complex, high-dollar-value, and perhaps critical, purchases can include surveys, financial condition analysis, third party evaluators, evaluation conferences, plant visits, and selected capability analyses.

IBM Quality Rating System: Uses quality costs as basis for rating suppliers. VQR = Desired Cost of Inspection Actual Cost of Inspection x 100
Bell Quality Rating System: Vide Lot Quality Index assessment is done on lots received against lots rejected, by disposition & category.
LQI = X/L
Where, L is Total No. of lots received during period. X is (L1x1.00)+(L2x2.10)+(L3x2.90) L1 is lots received and accepted L2 is lots rejected by sampling but labeled L3 is lots rejected and disposition and needs rework Weights were determined at company after study of complexity & No. of operations.
Objective of Negotiation Process Price Factor Strategy & Tactics Qualities of Negotiator What to Negotiate Process of Negotiation Theory of Bargaining Precautions of Negotiation
Negotiations Is an art by which a buyer & seller, usually face to face, tends to resolve differences to reach at the precise terms of contract. Purpose of Negotiations - Delivery. - Packaging, Parking and transportation. - Insurance - Bonus penalty clauses, - Frequency of reporting progress. NEGOTIATIONS TECHNIQUE CAN BE BEST LEARNT FROM LABOUR UNIONS: UNION OFFICIALS:- NEVER ENTER A NEGOTIATION WITHOUT BEING FULLY PREPARED. - NEGOTIATE ONLY WITH MGMTS REPRESENTATIVE HAVING LEGAL POWER TO CONLCUDE CONTRACT. - PUT THEIR INITIAL DEMANDS VERY HIGH. - CLASSIFY THEIR DEMAND INTO HIGH IMPORTANT AND NOT IMPORTANT & MAKE MGMT CONCEDE TO THEIR VITAL DEMAND IN EXCHANGE FOR CONCESSION OF LEAST IMPORTANT. - DETERMINE WELL IN ADVANCE WHAT CONCESSIONS THEY CAN MAKE AND WHICH CONCESSIONS out of this are of vital importance to the management. - They hold back vital concessions and make only minor concessions. Crucial elements in Negotiations: Information: The more u know about the other party and its needs. The more u are in control. Time: the more the other side is under time constraint, the more you are in driving seat. Power: The more power and authority u posses, the more commanding position u get.
Crucial elements in Negotiations: Information: The more u know about the other party and its needs. The more u are in control. Time: the more the other side is under time constraint, the more you are in driving seat. Power: The more power and authority u posses, the more commanding position u get. Principles of Negotiations: Prior knowledge of opponents bargaining strengths helps buyer to plan his appropriate tactics. 1. Sellers Strengths i. Sellers need for the order. ii. Sellers confidence in securing the order. iii. Time available for negotiations. iv. Criticality of items involved. v. General market condition. vi. Monopolistic status. vii. Knowledge of cost elements. 2. Good initial planning can increase your chance of success. 3. Talk to the right person. 4. A buyer also has some selling to do. 5. A good offence is the best defense. 6. Time constraints in negotiations, as in other activities, are subject to 80-20 rule. 7. Diversions at the appropriate time era essential for keeping control and avoiding bad judgment. 8. Hard won concessions, regardless of its value to the buyer, provide greater satisfaction to the receiver (the seller) of the concession. 9. Tact and diplomacy is necessary to make supplier do face saving. 10. Negotiations should not end up with an unhappy supplier. 11. Commitments once made must be kept. 12. Critical review of ones own performance after the negotiations usually helps in sharpening negotiations skills.
