Managing materiel in a multidivisional corporation.
By using centralized purchasing and prime vendor contracts, the Allied Services material management department has been able to handle very effectively the purchasing needs of this multidivisional health care complex. Through active enforcement of Allied Service's materiel management policies and procedures, the department continues to be able to acquire the products and services that are necessary to keep the many programs running. Most importantly, these products and services continue to be acquired while the three significant attributes of materiel management--quality, availability, and service--are maintained.
