This widely used text introduces readers to the principles and procedures of purchasing and materials management. Substantially revised for this Sixth Edition, Purchasing and the Management of Materials includes new chapters on international purchasing and value analysis, and an expanded treatment of computer applications. Also new is a discussion of deregulation as a transportation variable, a fresh look at cost-price analysis, an outline of relevant economic concepts, as well as material on conglomerate organizations, multinational operations, international sourcing, and vice-president sourcing. Six entirely new cases have been added. In addition, topics have been organized to make the book an effective preparation for the Certified Purchasing Managers and American Production and Inventory Control Society exams. However, despite all the changes made to this edition, the coverage of fundamental purchasing and related materials management concerns, which provided the framework of highly successful earlier editions, has been carefully preserved.
