A Study to Identify the Operational Objectives and Related Performance Indicators of the Base Level Procurement Function

Abstract

The research effort concerned itself with a study of the base level procurement function as it existed and was projected to exist in the following decade. The research effort was limited to the identification of organizational objectives and those areas of performance within the procurement function which necessitated the establishment of standards and the formulation of appropriate criteria for measurement if management effectiveness in the pursuit of objectives was to be achieved. Effective determination of these factors necessitated the investigation of the interface and integration both internal and external to the functional areas. The study was intended to establish a foundation upon which later research could build in terms of standards, frequency determination and formulation of levels of organizational detail in terms of an overall base level logistics management system.
