 MATERIAL PROCUREMENT

Material procurement can be defined as the purchase of merchandise or services at the optimum possible total
cost in the correct amount and quality. These good and services are also purchased at the correct time and
location for use by government, company, business, or individuals by signing a contract.

The process of acquisition of goods or services required as raw material (direct procurement) or for operational
purposes (indirect procurement) for a company or a person can be called material procurement. The
procurement process not only involves the purchasing of commodities but also quality and quantity checks.
Usually, suppliers are listed and pre-determined by the procuring company. This makes the process smoother,
promoting a good business relationship between the buyer and the supplier.

Often a materials procurement manager will be in charge of this division, although several different individuals
may be needed. This person will meet with potential providers of goods and factor in any number of things when
making a decision to buy. The goods a company purchases and then resells to consumers can make all the
difference between success or failure in the marketplace.

When considering a new product, materials procurement personnel will weigh several things in their minds. First
and foremost is the use of the item and the need this function meets for consumers. If there are already similar
products being sold in the marketplace, they will also compare potential goods with them to get an idea of well
these items sell.

Another important factor in material procurement proceedings is the negotiation of a price. Retailers in particular
often haggle to get the lowest priced merchandise so they can then raise the prices and resell goods to
consumers. The manager or buyer of the procurement department may be responsible for discussing price
issues with sellers.

There are also companies whose main objective is to buy new goods and services for other businesses. This is
a form of materials procurement as well. These people find out a business's needs, find products that meet
them, and help negotiate prices between the seller and buyer. A fee is then charged to the hiring party.

Materials procurement involves the finding, gathering, and delivering of these goods to manufacturers or
builders who will use them to make saleable merchandise.

Materials purchase department in a business house is confronted with the following:-

⇒ What to purchase?

⇒ When to purchase?

⇒ How to purchase?

⇒ In what quantity to purchase

⇒ From where to purchase?

⇒ At what price to purchase?

 Steps in procurement of materials

Procurement in modern businesses usually consists of seven steps:

 Information gathering: If the potential customer does not already have an established relationship with
sales/ marketing functions of suppliers of needed products and services (P/S), it is necessary to search for
suppliers who can satisfy the requirements.
 Supplier contact: When one or more suitable suppliers have been identified, requests for
quotation, requests for proposals, requests for information or requests for tender may be advertised, or direct
contact may be made with the suppliers.
 Background review: References for product/service quality are consulted, and any requirements for
follow-up services including installation, maintenance, and warranty are investigated. Samples of the P/S
being considered may be examined, or trials undertaken.
 Negotiation: Negotiations are undertaken, and price, availability, and customization possibilities are
established. Delivery schedules are negotiated, and a contract to acquire the P/S is completed.
 Fulfillment: Supplier preparation, expediting, shipment, delivery, and payment for the P/S are completed,
based on contract terms. Installation and training may also be included.
 Consumption, maintenance, and disposal: During this phase, the company evaluates the performance
of the P/S and any accompanying service support, as they are consumed.
 Renewal: When the P/S has been consumed and/or disposed of, the contract expires, or the product or
service is to be re-ordered, company experience with the P/S is reviewed. If the P/S is to be re-ordered, the
company determines whether to consider other suppliers or to continue with the same supplier.
