GFD Purchasing System Richard Spackmann RichardSpackmann@greenfieldfd.org
Why? • What is the status of my order? • When did it get ordered? • It’s delivered!? Why didn’t I know that? • How come its taking so long to get my order processed/approved? • etc….
Challenges • Commercially available software made for large corporations or career large departments • Available software costs $$$ • Significant learning curve
Advantages • Increase communication through requisition process • Email notifications of all phases of the requisition (approval, ordering, delivery) • Minimize process overhead • Digital data recorded in databases • Reporting • better tracking of inventories/orders ($$$)
Workflow • Requestors • Create requisitions to procure services or purchase equipment • Approvers • Approve all requisitions submitted by a requestor • Purchasers • Purchase and deliver approved requisitions
