Goal Conflicts and Ambiguities in the Organization
• Individual managers’ goals may not be in congruence with organizational objectives– Purchasing may buy large quantities of inventory for quantity
discounts and to reduce ordering costs– This may drive up costs of receiving, inspecting, and carrying
inventory• Ambiguity often exists in defining goals and success in meeting goals.
– A purchasing goals might be to select a vendor who will provide the best quality at the lowest price by the promised delivery date
– Realistically, one vendor probably will not satisfy all three conditions
• Prioritization of goals is necessary in choosing the best solution given the various conflicts and constraints placed on the process– Trade-offs are made in prioritizing among the goals that conflict– If the market is sensitive to satisfying customer needs, the
company may pay higher prices to ensure that it is procuring the best quality goods and obtaining them when needed

sales rate

carrying inventory
• ABC analysis a technique for ranking items in a group based on the output of the items– ABC analysis can be used to categorize inventory
items according to their importance

Fraud and the Purchasing Function
• Many frauds involve manipulation of purchasing because it involves the payment of cash– The typical cases included in this category of
process exploitation are instances in which:• An employee (e.g., a buyer, purchasing manager, or
other person) places purchase orders with a particular vendor in exchange for a kickback, secret commission, or other form of inducement from the vendor.
• An employee has a conflict of interest between his responsibilities to his employer and his financial interest—direct or indirect—in a company with whom the employer does business.
