Notes
Purchasing manager's key function is to buy goods
and ser vices for use in business.
Purchasing managers are responsible for Material
Requirement Planning (MRP).
Time lines and deliver y of all supplies must be
fol-lowed to maintain master production schedule.
The person responsible is called a buyer.
They purchase goods for resale, forecast
custom-ers needs, and buy necessar y products.
BOM: beginning of month inventory
EOM: end of month inventory
Federal, state, and local agencies are responsible
for purchasing goods and ser vices for specific
markets.
FAA, depar tments of sanitation, and public
librar-ies are examples.
Government represents one of the largest single
markets for retail goods and ser vices.
Nonprofit organizations include hospitals, schools,
colleges, churches, and foundations.
They do not compete in the business world the
same way that retailers and wholesalers do.
