How to do a good job as a medical supplies purchaser

1, to learn to price, regardless of the procurement of any kind of material, before purchasing should be familiar with its price composition, to understand your supplier's production of finished products of raw materials source price, for their own accurate price to lay the foundation. So that when negotiating, do know what you know, and win a hundred battles. 2, the source of information to a wide range: today's society is an electronic device, as a procurement staff to be collected by different aspects of the material procurement information, geographical differences. 3, choose the supplier suitable for the development of their own companies, a good supplier can follow you *** with the development of your development ideas, cost savings, management of suppliers is very worrying; bad supplier for your supplier management to bring a lot of trouble. (Judge a good supplier mainly from its quality, price, service, technical force, resilience and other considerations). 4, the negotiation skills of procurement staff is also an important part of the control of procurement costs (a good negotiator will give you at least 5% of the procurement of profit margins). 5, the importance of bulk purchasing, anyone knows the reason, the larger the batch, the lower the amortization of costs. Purchasing planners need to put this gate. 6, the establishment of the company's procurement reputation. Terms must be implemented in accordance with the contract, such as payment you can delay once, twice, but you must not have a third. Loss of integrity, not to mention cost control, may not have someone to give you goods for. (Unless your company has a great temptation) 7, the establishment of a monthly supplier rating system (from the quality, price, service), the implementation of the supplier quota system, will receive your unexpected results. 8, the establishment of procurement staff of the monthly performance evaluation system. It can motivate the purchasing staff's work enthusiasm. 9, effective control of procurement inventory. Avoid the risk of stopping production (adjustment requirements) and the risk of backlog of materials, invisible control of their own business procurement costs. Thank you for your reply on behalf of the owner! By the way, I would like to add: Procurement in the general view of the people that is "sitting in the south position", with such things as "kickbacks", "get commission", "eat, drink, play, play, play". With this, such as "taking kickbacks", "get commission", "eat, drink, play, play, music" and so on the indecent words and phrases will appear in our head, you have to say that it is the true embodiment of your I can not deny, but if you say that it is a false accusation of your work, I also understand, well combined with the 7, 8 years of international and domestic procurement experience and discuss with you, in the end, what kind of procurement is a qualified procurement? More so, what kind of procurement is excellent procurement? Procurement staff must have a few basic qualities a, appearance instrumentation Any work will be involved in this area, just procurement may not be the most important point, imagine a marketing personnel saw him face to face with the procurement, whether it is big and thick, teeth and claws or suave, gentle and elegant, he must face. Only as a window to the outside world, or advocate not to affect the city better (in fact, there are a lot of this point, due to time relations here not a point of analysis) Second, the three abilities 1, language ability: clear speech, talk freely, organized, simple and concise 2, in-depth ability: that is, with a variety of different people's ability to communicate with the business to achieve cognition, recognition and full acceptance of 3, the ability to comprehend: quickly learn the technology, proficient in the business, and integrate into the business. Learning technology, proficient in business, integration, flexible use of three, the spirit of dedication must be positive, optimistic and enterprising, the courage to explore, and constantly enhance their ability to accept new things four, the mentality of the company full of confidence in their own ability to be full of confidence. Can be successful, the difference is in the desire to work. There is no firm intention and not enough positive people, even if they have a very high degree, or a very flexible mind, or can not create a good performance. In order to develop a sense of responsibility, you must have a strong determination that you are committed to your job. Only then can you devote yourself wholeheartedly to your work with a positive attitude, a strong sense of responsibility, and 100% confidence to develop your own field of work. When you have the basic qualities and capabilities of how to advance to a qualified procurement, of course, only personal opinion, I hope to help you. First of all, it is highly recommended to familiarize yourself with the company's products If you are fortunate enough to be hired by a company due to their own qualities, then first congratulations on the opportunity to become a qualified procurement. The first task is to familiarize yourself with the company's products as soon as possible, for the following reasons 1, the company's products, the understanding of the various production processes, you can understand the raw materials to be purchased, semi-finished products, etc. in the product to play the role of "role", so that its quality requirements and the corresponding number of needs to know (here only need to understand that the requirements of the higher levels and not). (Here only need to understand, as for the higher level requirements are not the content of qualified procurement, will be detailed) 2, familiar with the company's products, by the way, you will be the company's various departments and related contacts for a preliminary understanding of the company, including sales, production, technology, quality, finance, logistics, and so on (according to the company's different specific different operations) These will help you to integrate into the team at the fastest speed Second, the second recommended to familiarize themselves with the raw materials, semi-finished products, trade goods and so on as a procurement this will be your future career. Purchasing this will be the basis of the main tasks you engage in the future, generally divided into the following aspects of understanding 1, to understand the purchased goods market conditions. As you have previously on the company needs to purchase raw materials, semi-finished products and other quality requirements to understand, then you can through Ali, google and a variety of search engine to understand (it is worth noting that, because you do not understand the production process of purchases, so subjectively you can not locate it, that is, we are usually the jargon of "costing") so you are only the cost of purchases, but also to understand the market situation, and to understand the market situation. ") so you only through other aspects of the general understanding of the market (here I did not mention colleagues consulting, this is a breakthrough, after all, people earlier than you contact the market certainly more than you will understand some, is a shortcut, but pay attention to the thing is that the shortcut is not good use but will hinder you, since you already have the basic qualities and capabilities, why this does not say their own experience) 2, Always keep abreast of the price fluctuations affecting the procurement of goods. Some purchases such as non-ferrous metals, minerals, textile raw materials (many not to name a few) price fluctuations, and even a day a price directly affects the cost of procurement, and some other purchases due to taxes, exchange rates, and other indirect impacts will make the purchase cost up and down, such as imports, etc., and other non-human factors affecting the price fluctuations and so on The above 2 points to understand that you can help you a more comprehensive understanding of the market situation for the future. Understanding of the above two points can help you understand the market situation more comprehensively, for the future of the "price change value" to provide essential raw data 3, to understand the current situation of suppliers of purchases. This situation in addition to the company's existing business dealings, supplier assessment, but also need to understand from the side (such as the network, peers, etc.), the general business suppliers are assessed on its quality, delivery, handling emergencies, etc., so this aspect of the relatively simple, can be mastered by yourself Third, again, is the specific procurement practices 1, the understanding of the procurement process, 2, the approval process to understand the 3, request for quotations, bargaining, negotiation, contract signing 4, into the goods, acceptance, warehousing, warehousing understanding 5, the quality of complaints about the handling of the procurement process to eat through the enterprise, different companies have different processes, access to this information on a person with the basic quality and ability to purchase will not have a problem, not to focus on the four, the relationship with the supplier and your supplier to maintain a good or more upper level relationship In your future procurement work related to the purchase price, delivery period, payment methods, claims work, etc. are of great help A qualified procurement is only a procurement executor or operator, and for qualified procurement involves relations with suppliers (the relationship referred to here is only the maintenance of relations) this point to do is not difficult, because of in-depth ability to a small maintenance of supplier relationships I believe that it is difficult to defeat you, in becoming a good procurement will also focus on analyzing. Personally believe that the above points if you have done, then congratulations you have become a qualified procurement, need to remind you that qualified staff can only show that you have been familiar with the work, become skilled, but your status in the company will fluctuate? In the foreign enterprise when you become a qualified procurement, no accident you can be engaged in this work until retirement, but those in the private sector in other enterprises may not be so lucky. From another aspect with (a) (b) conditions of friends will not be limited to do a procurement executive or operator, advanced to "good procurement, an excellent procurement staff" so that enterprises can not leave you, should be the desire of each procurement professionals, next time I will talk about how to upgrade from a qualified procurement to a good procurement! Next time, I will talk about how to improve from a qualified procurement to a good procurement, which mainly involves the details of the work, such as domestic procurement often occurs in the case of analysis, international procurement occurs in the case of analysis, how to really control your suppliers, common thorny procurement issues, etc., and I hope to continue to bring you some positive effects.
