The organization of material supplies is a responsible and complex process, on which the work of the entire enterprise largely depends. The question of the correct organization of this activity is quite natural and understandable. Lack of attention to detail in procurement can lead to serious consequences - interruptions in the supplies of material resources, delayed delivery, loss of customers, and business reputation. The correct organization of material supplies should be based primarily on a close system of interaction between employees, departments, divisions. Only in such conditions one see the real materials and raw materials needs, estimate the rate of expenditure and draw up correct supplies plans so that there are no interruptions. Warehouse management is no less important. Some organizations have one, a common one. Some have a network of warehouses at their disposal, and some organize separate warehouses according to each department or production. Control and accounting for each - this is the main task with the correct material supplies. Procurement organized using various forms.
