What is the main difference between the traditional purchasing management thought and the current purchasing management thought?

Traditional procurement is pure procurement, procurement for the sake of procurement, and the purpose of procurement is single. Now purchasing is systematic and standardized, and it should be considered from the starting point of purchasing raw materials to the final consumption terminal. There are many problems to be considered in current procurement, and the role of current procurement in enterprises is much more important than that of traditional procurement.

In today's competitive environment, no purchasing strategy is suitable for all products and services of an enterprise. In order to reasonably define the scope of application of procurement outsourcing strategy, we can use the supply segmentation method to classify and analyze various products and services supplied by enterprises. In enterprise procurement and supply management, supply cost and supply risk are the core issues concerned by procurement personnel.

The supply cost indicates the importance of each product or service, which is generally measured by the total annual expenditure of the enterprise. For supply risk, the degree of risk can generally be comprehensively determined according to technical factors, availability of supply resources, technical requirements and environmental factors.

Procurement process:

Collecting information, inquiring, comparing prices, bargaining, evaluating, requesting samples, deciding, applying for purchasing, ordering, coordinating and communicating, urging delivery, inspecting goods and arranging payment.

Calculation of purchase quantity: quantity to be purchased in current period = production demand in current period+unplanned inventory in current period-estimated inventory in previous period-purchased inventory in previous period.

How to reduce the procurement cost reasonably: make a reasonable procurement plan in advance, inquire about the current market situation, and master the factors and events that affect the cost. Appropriately find a number of qualified manufacturers to quote, make the bottom price or budget, and use bargaining skills. Afterwards, choose the manufacturer with the right price to sign the contract, and use the quantity or cash discount.
