the purchase committee and final decision is taken after necessary negotiation. After satisfactory demonstration and confirmation, all the required documents submitted and formal order is placed. If the item is to be imported, following documents are required. License Product literature and proforma invoice Custom duty exemption (CDE) Not manufactured in India certificate (NMIC)

- Consider the following points :-

Effective Purchasing:

Local suppliers are preferable to outstation suppliers because of ease of personal discussion & setting disputes. Prepare a list of vendors for each item based on their reputation. When possible, procure directly from manufacturers rather then trading firms. Avoid suppliers who insist on advance payment. As incorrect supplies cannot be rejected after taking delivery of the consignment, do not accept supplies through VPP & negotiation of documents through bank.

Receipt & Pre acceptance check:


Receive the materials at a specified receiving area. At the point of delivery, cheque each item physically & count against suppliers in voice or packing challan. Cheque physical condition of materials. Tearing down unitized load & restructuring them make handling & storage timeconsuming. Visual demand inspection must be as extensive as economically possible.

Cont.....
If damage is detected, the transporter & vendor must be notified immediately, the load must be left intact for their review. Carry out a cheque against the purchase order. Notify purchase section of any discrepancies immediately. Carry out basic documentation immediately, i.e. day-book & inward goods register.
