5.2 Negotiate & Select Suppliers
 Preparing the contract
 Raising the PO
 Blanket or Running
Running contract means contract for the supply of an approximate
quantity of items at a specified price during a certain period.
 System Contracting
System Contracting involves the development of a corporate
agreement with a supplier to purchase a large quantity of items or raw
materials on a continuous basis. These contracts can range from one to
five years in length
 Purchase Card (P Card)
Purchase Card is a form of company charge card that allows goods
and services to be procured without using a
traditional purchasing process.

Manage Total Cost of Ownership
THIS IS ABOUT:
Instill Total Cost of Ownership / Total System Cost Mindset
 Move away from looking at just lowest price
 More focus on best value
 Move towards process improvement as a measurable
internal goal
 Evaluation of all factors that make up the cost of goods
and services
21
A = Acquisition Cost (25-40%)
O = Operating Costs
T = Training Costs
M = Maintenance Costs
W = Warehousing Costs
E = Environmental Costs
S = Salvage Value
60-75%
Total Cost of Ownership = A + (O+T+M+W+E) Less S

Editor's Notes

  • #22 Price is only one element of the total, life-cycle cost of acquiring products and services. A sourcing effort that addresses price only misses a much, much greater opportunity to reduce internal design and process costs. A rule of thumb is that once you have told a supplier what it is you want to buy and what it must look like, you have already built in 80% of the purchase cost. By understanding and managing demand drivers and how specifications are developed to meet them, a client can often double or triple the savings. Inventory is another area where you can drive out cost by asking suppliers to manage stock or migrating to just-in-time deliveries. You will find other savings opportunities in every aspect of the internal supply chain.
