Dear Team,
I am writing to provide you with updated guidelines for our procurement process. Effective immediately, the following procedures should be adhered to:
-
Approval Process: All procurement requests must be submitted using the designated form and approved by the department head before any purchases can be made. This ensures proper budget allocation and adherence to organizational policies.
-
Vendor Selection: When selecting vendors, consider factors such as pricing, quality, delivery times, and past performance. Obtain multiple quotes where feasible to ensure competitiveness and value for money.
-
Documentation: Maintain detailed records of all procurement activities, including requests, approvals, vendor communications, and invoices. This documentation is essential for auditing purposes and ensures transparency in our procurement process.
-
Budget Compliance: Ensure that all procurement activities are in line with the allocated budget for your department or project. Seek approval from the finance department for any deviations from the budget.
-
Timely Communication: Keep all stakeholders informed of the procurement status, especially if there are delays or changes to delivery schedules. Timely communication helps prevent misunderstandings and ensures smooth project execution.
Please review these guidelines carefully and ensure compliance within your respective departments. If you have any questions or need further clarification, don't hesitate to contact the procurement department.
I appreciate your cooperation.
Best,
[YOUR NAME]
