Procurement is never an easy and one-way process. Process-wise, from Purchase Request to compliant RFQ to PO and finally invoice and receipt to complete Procure-to-Pay process; Financial-wise, from Budget Allocation to various levels along company hierarchy and across types of spending (CapEx vs. OpEx); Compliant-wise, to ensure every step is under approval and comply with company policies. Managing procurement means managing costs, budgets, and, sometimes, business success.
