The difference between modern procurement and traditional procurement

Different purchasing methods, different information acquisition methods, different supply chain management methods and so on.

1. Different procurement methods: Modern procurement focuses on efficient and convenient procurement methods, and online procurement is carried out with the help of the Internet and e-commerce platforms. Traditional procurement relies more on field visits, face-to-face negotiations and traditional procurement channels. Modern procurement improves the efficiency and traceability of procurement through digital technology and automated processes.

2. Different ways to obtain information: Modern procurement can obtain a large number of supplier information, product information and market conditions through the Internet and e-commerce platforms. Traditional procurement needs to obtain information through manual search, visiting exhibitions or direct contact with suppliers. With the development of information technology, modern procurement can obtain all kinds of relevant information more comprehensively and timely.

3. Different modes of supply chain management: Modern procurement pays attention to the integration and optimization of supply chain, and emphasizes the establishment and management of cooperative partnership to realize the efficient operation of supply chain. Traditional procurement pays more attention to independent transactions and the completion of a single transaction. Modern procurement improves the visibility, coordination and response speed of supply chain through the concept and tools of supply chain management.
