Purchasing is the formal process of buying goods and services. The purchasing process can vary from one organization to another, but there are some common key elements.
The process usually starts with a demand or requirements this could be for a physical part (inventory) or a service. A requisition is generated, which details the requirements (in some cases providing a requirements speciation) which actions the procurement department. A request for proposal (RFP) or request for quotation (RFQ) is then raised. Suppliers send their quotations in response to the RFQ, and a review is undertaken where the best offer (typically based on price, availability and quality) is given the purchase order.

Codification of materials can also be termed as the identification of materials. This deals with uniquely identifying each item in the inventory. It is a simple concept. For a good quality control system a unique identification is a pre-requisite.
Stores management is part of the overall function of materials management. In order, therefore, to understand the function of the former it is desirable to have a clear understanding of what materials management stands for.
According to Alford and Beatty “storekeeping is that aspect of material control concerned with the physical storage of goods.” In other words, storekeeping relates to art of preserving raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods in the stores.
Material management is a scientific technique, concerned with Planning, Organizing & Control of flow of materials, from their initial purchase to destination.
Inventory generally refers to the materials in stock. It is also called the idle resource of an enterprise. Inventories represent those items, which are either stocked for sale or they are in the process of manufacturing or they are in the form of materials, which are yet to be utilized.
Materials management is a core supply chain function and includes supply chain planning and supply chain execution capabilities. Specifically, materials management is the capability firms use to plan total material requirements.
- Vendor means a person (or company) who sells and supplies his (or its) products.
- An intelligent purchasing involves the rational selection of sources from which materials can be obtained.
- Considerable efforts are needed in identifying, developing and evaluating the prospective suppliers. It is also essential to continuously appraise the performance of the current suppliers.

4. DEFINITION
It is defined as an organizational concept, which has the
authority and responsibility of all activities, concerned with
the flow of materials in the organization
or
Material
management
is
a
scientific
technique, concerned with Planning, Organizing &Control
of flow of materials, from their initial purchase to
destination.
5. OBJECTIVES AND IMPORTANCE
Efficient use of the working capital.
Responding to the market changes related to any product.
Ensuring the cooperation of all departments.
Providing best services to the king of the market i.e
customer.
Lowering inventory investment and increasing the
inventory turnover.
Right quantity of supply ,at right place and time
6. PRINCIPLES OF MATERIAL HANDLING
Simple inventory control programme
Least handling is the best handling.
Minimize the distance
Lengths and number of move to be minimized
Unit loads
7. PRINCIPLES OF MATERIAL HANDLING
The materials handling service should not interfere
with the production flow.
The design of the container e.g. shippers are used
for storing finished bulk. & for raw materials as per
the property of materials they are stored- plastic
containers ( light weight containers)
Re-handling and back tracking of the materials
should be avoided.
8. CLASSES OF MATERIALS
Raw materials:- These are materials that are used
in the product which is in an unprocessed condition.
Supplies:- These are consumable goods used in
the process of manufacturing.
Purchased Parts:- These are the items used in the
assembly of the product.
9.
In-progress materials:- They are called ‘work in
progress’ inventories. These goods require further
processing.
Finished materials:- These are fully manufactured
goods, inspected and ready for delivery to the
customers.
11. MATERIALS-QUALITY & QUANTITY
Four factors affecting the purchase of raw materials are
1) Quality :- The suitably of an item to accomplish the intended
work.
The raw materials should satisfy the
following
requirements.
i.
Efficiency of the material.
ii.
Cost and the shelf –life.
iii.
For equipments, power consumption and
power
requirement.
12. 2) QUANTITY

4)
From the inventory point of view, quantity standards are
decided on the following parameters;
Maximum inventory
Minimum inventory
Standard order
Reorder point
Price
Delivery Date
13. VALUE ANALYSIS
i.
ii.
iii.
iv.
Definition:- It is a systematic study of every
element for it’s cost in a part, material or service to
make certain that it performs it’s function at the
lowest possible cost.
Benefits of value analysis:Decrease in existing cost of the product or service.
Unnecessary expenditure is identified and
eliminated.
Product value improves for new materials and
processes.
More profits.
14. TYPES OF VALUE
User value: properties that accomplish use, work or service.
Ex:- self sealing tape
Cost value: properties that are the sum of labour, material, overheads
& other costs, required for producing that object
Ex:- mixing, granulation & drying are done in single equipment.
Value ratio: it is expressed as Value =function
Total cost

15
16. VENDOR DEVELOPMENT
The supplier or the person who sells the required materials or
services for the production is known as a vendor.
The purchase of raw materials/service from a specific vendor
is known as the vendor development.
There are four stages of vendor development:-

Other ways are like interchanging of information
with other companies, tracing of public tenders and
advertisements in the press.
11/24/2013
18
19. 2) ENQUIRY STAGE
After getting the information of the suppliers, detailed analysis
of the supplier is being carried out. A comparison is being
made between the different suppliers on basis of the
following points:a.
b.
c.
d.
Technological competition,
service competition,
price competition,
delivery time.
11/24/2013

21. 3) NEGOTIATION AND SELECTION STAGE
The vendors who clear the enquiry stage are selected and
negotiations are being carried out with them.
The various aspects such as credit, quantity discount, quality
specifications are being discussed.
11/24/2013
21
22. 4) EXPERIENCE AND EVALUATION STAGE

26. BUYING TECHNIQUES
Purchasing of material , machinery and services is done by
purchasing department.
For buying the material company has to pay up a price, the value
that a seller sets on his goods in the market is called as the price of
that good.
Price is one of the greatest variables in the purchasing of material.

46. GOALS OF MATERIAL HANDLING
The primary goal is to reduce unit costs of
production
Maintain or improve product quality, reduce damage of
materials
Promote safety and improve working conditions
Promote productivity
material should flow in a straight line
use gravity! It is free power
move more material at one time
mechanize material handling
automate material handling

50. FUNCTIONS OF MATERIAL HANDLING
Handling of unit load :-the principle of
containerization, unit-load & palletization are
employed for moving an optimum number of
pieces at a time to their ultimate destinations.
Placement of equipment :-In production operations,
appropriate plant layout & proper placement of
equipment minimizes the movement of materials.
Appropriate material handling equipment :Mechanical aids should be employed in place of
manual handling.
11/24/2013
50
51. SELECTION OF MATERIAL HANDLING SYSTEMS
The best equipment is one that :
Permits smooth & continuous production flow
Involves less number of accidents
Reduces production cycles time
Promotes better working condition
Lessens fatigue to the operators
Brings down total material handling cost
11/24/2013
51
52.
Nature of material to be moved :- the
size, weight, delicacy, nature (solid, liquid, gas) of
material & chances of getting damaged during
handling should be considered.
Plant building & layout :-A multi-storeyed building
facilitates the use of gravity for material flow.
The door locations,sizes,ceiling heights, roof& floor
strenghts,columns,etc..
Production machines :-Different machines have
different outputs per unit time.
11/24/2013
52
53. Type of material flow patterns :-A vertical flow
pattern requires elevators,conveyors,pipes
etc.,whereas horizontal flow patterns need trucks,
overhead bridges, cranes, conveyors etc.
Type of production :-Conveyors are more suitable
for fixed routes for continuous process & powered
trucks are suitable for batch operation.
11/24/2013
53
54. Cost of material handling equipment :-The initial
cost of handling equipment are high. when human
contact with product must be
minimized, equipment is the alternative, hence cost
does not limit the installation.
Handling costs :-Economy in material handling can
be achieved by employing gravity-aided
movements & minimizing the distance of material
travel. A system that allows the product directly fall
over the material handling equipment is more
ideal.
11/24/2013
54
55.
Life of equipment :-Proper periodic
insepection,repairs & maintaences of equipment
increases its life. smoothen the flow of materials &
economize the production system.
11/24/2013

56. MAINTENANCE OF MATERIAL HANDLING
EQUIPMENT
Inspection :-all parts, open or covered are
inspected for wear & tear. Worn out or unworkable
components such as wire ropes, bearing & bolts,
are identified & remedial measures are taken.
Breaks are adjusted & lubricated wherever &
whenever necessary.
Repairs :-After inspection, all repairable parts are
corrected & minor defected are rectified. open gear
transmission, coupling, riveted & bolted joints,
trolleys, breaks, guards etc., require frequent
repairs.

Overhaul:-involves dismantling the complete
mechanism & replacing the damage components.
Crane structure, buffers, rails, open gear
transmission, pulley blocks etc., may be overhauled
& various sub mechanisms may be aligned &
adjusted.

58. UNIT-LOAD, PALLETIZATION &
CONTAINERIZATION
It is easier & faster to move a hundred small parts
by grouping them into one unit than moving them
individually one by one. these are collectively
known as unit-load.
For example, each formulation of tablet contains a
number of ingredients. For a lot
size, ingredients(raw materials) are weighed &
packed individually & loaded onto a pallet.

11/24/2013
Pallet is one unit load these
are moved to the production
department by suitable
handling system.
Depending on the types of
item to be transferred, a
suitable pallet can be
designed. for example,
items of irregular in shape
are liable to be damaged by
crushing, for such items, a
post pallet is useful. small
items can be placed in a
wire mesh-box.

Containerization
11/24/2013
Containerization uses the
principle of unit load. in
this system, a big metal
container is filled with a
number of small
products. many such
containers are placed on
a truck or trailer that is
pulled by tractor or truck.
such containers can be
loaded on railway trailers
& transported.
60
61. TYPES OF MATERIAL HANDLING SYSTEMS
Conveyors:-are employed for transporting materials
in a fixed path, which may be horizontal, vertical or
inclined to different locations of a factory. these
prove economical, if the flow of material is
continuous.
11/24/2013
61
62. BELT CONVEYORS
It is used in transporting containers (bottles) for
filling, capping, sealing, labeling, visual inspection
etc.,in production of injectables,liquid orals,
ointments & jellies.
Several types of other conveyor are available.
example are roller conveyor, slat conveyor, wheel
conveyor, apron conveyor, pusher bar conveyor, &
bucket conveyor.

Belt Conveyors
◦
Conveys materials along
horizontal, and slightly
inclined paths
◦ Driven by power operated
roll mounted underneath
the conveyor or at the one
end of the conveyor.
◦ supported on either rollers
or on metal slider pan and
we call them roller
conveyor and slider
conveyor respectively

64. BELT CONVEYORS-ADVANTAGES
Belt can be made of asbestos fibers, neoprene, Teflon, &
vinyl polymer. cord belt are also used.
Belt conveyors are for general purpose installation &
available in relatively large sizes. these can travel several
kilometers as in case of coal mines.
Routine maintenance is easy.
It is economical.
Disadvantage-it is expensive.

65. PNEUMATIC CONVEYOR
Pneumatic conveyor or pipeline conveyor is one of
the most commonly used handling techniques in
chemical industry. it is employed when the material
is light & bulky, for example, formulation of powder
insufflations.
This type of conveyor is a closed system, handling
of unpleasant & injurious substance is easy. it is
used for transporting of granular(example,wheat)or
pulverized material(example,salt)through the
pipes.
11/24/2013
65
66. PNEUMATIC CONVEYORS
Involves the transportation
of a wide variety of dry
powdered and granular
solids in a gas stream.
In most cases the gas is
normally air.
Where special conditions
prevail, different gases are
used.
11/24/2013

67. WHY PNEUMATIC CONVEYING?
Advantages
Dust free transportation of a variety of products.
Flexibility in routing.
Low maintenance and low manpower costs.
Multiple use.
Security.
Ease of automation and control.
11/24/2013
67
68. WHY PNEUMATIC CONVEYING?
Disadvantages
High power consumption
Wear and abrasion of equipment
Incorrect design can result in particle degradation
Limited distance
By virtue of the complex flow phenomenon which
take place, there is a requirement for high levels of
skill to design, operate and maintain systems

69. FORK-LIFT TRUCKS
It consist of forks attached to a column of the truck.
fork can be lifted upto the desired height with
material(boxes) on them. the material can be
stacked at the proper place very close to the roof in
warehousing & shinning area. fork-lift trucks are
used for short distance(40 to 70 meters) travel.
these are used for indoor applications.
11/24/2013

70. Platform truck (low-lift) is
used for transporting the
palletised raw materials
of a lot-size manually
from the warehouse to
the production area.
Platform trucks (high lift)
is used for loading the
tablet granules into
double cone blender.
11/24/2013

72. CRANES
Cranes are employed for
lifting & lowering of bulky
items, packages & boxes.
these find applications in
heavy engineering
industry & generally in
intermittent type of
production.
11/24/2013
72
73. HOISTS
Hoists means lift or pull something up to higher
place (overhead position) with ropes. this
equipment is mounted on single rail fixed at the
height nearer to the roof. hence, material are
transferred along fixed path. hoists find application
in industries employing chemical cleaning. Cranes
are used for heavy items & hoists are employed for
small items.s

75. SLIDES, CHUTES & LIFTS
Slides can be straight,
spiral & vibrating, & made
up of wood or steel.
these transfer small jobs
that can slide down under
gravity. vibrating slides
transport material up &
inclined.(example,cigarette factories)
11/24/2013
75
76. CHUTES
11/24/2013
Chutes have sheet metal
or roller base for
transferring components
down the incline. chutes
generally deliver the feed
material directly onto the
conveyor to reach the
destination further.
Spiral chutes are used for
transporting sealed vials
from aseptic area to
packing section using gravity
principle.
76
77. LIFTS
Lifts are used to transport
material up in multi-stored
plants. it is a fast & flexible
equipment for floor to floor
travel.
buckets or trays are
mounted on the endless
chain running from the
ground floor to the top floor.
the material can be loaded
into trays automatically.
