Warranty costs (shipping, handling, labour, parts). Says yes, and who is a lowly buyer to argue with that? Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

There are few investments a company can make that rival the returns from investing in their own supply chain. Wednesday, September 5, 2007.

http://procurementinvestor.blogspot.com/2007/09/buying-top-job.html
There are few investments a company can make that rival the returns from investing in their own supply chain. Wednesday, September 5, 2007. Buying the top job. The new chairman at Renault F1, Bernard Rey, has been Renault's "go to" purchasing guy for about a decade. He was appointed Renault's International Chief Purchasing officer back in 1998, and then followed Ghosn to Nissan where he drove a program to lower Nissan's purchased expenses by 20%.

There are few investments a company can make that rival the returns from investing in their own supply chain. Monday, June 25, 2007. Let's take a car purchase. A dealer has it listed at $38,789 after some negotiation you settle on a price of $35,600. The dealer then asks if you would like to finance the car over 6 years, and offers to do so at $702/month. Is that a good deal? However . when you are negotiating procurement or outsourcing contracts don't assume all the parties at the table will be able...

There are few investments a company can make that rival the returns from investing in their own supply chain. Thursday, March 1, 2007. Sit down and read this. Procurement "professionals" are often asked, either seriously or in jest, for retail buying help from friends and family.
