Purchasing and supplies personnel are required in all businesses. The first step in doing business is to spend money before any money is made. But spend too much money on goods and services and the cost eats away at profits. Spend too little the quality of goods or services can be damaged. Both scenarios put the business in jeopardy so effective procurement is essential. Procurement is therefore a critical function in the organization and requires the best and the brightest people to join its ranks. It therefore competes with other disciplines such as finance, engineering, and business as a career for young people.
