Problem Recognition
The buying process begins when someone in the company recognizes a problem or need that can be met by acquiring a good or service. The recognition can be triggered by internal or external stimuli.
General Need Description and Product Specification
Next, the buyer determines the needed item’s general characteristics and required quantity.
For standard items, this is simple. For complex items, the buyer will work with
others- engineers , users- to define characteristics like reliability, durability, or price.
Business marketers can help by describing how their products meet or even exceed the buyer’s needs.
E-Procurement
Websites are organized around two types of e-hubs:
vertical hubs centered on industries (plastics, steel, chemicals, paper) and
functional hubs ( logistics, media buying , advertising energy management). In addition to using these websites , companies can do e-procurement in other ways:
1.Direct extranet links to major suppliers.2.Buying alliances
Supplier Selection
Before selecting a supplier, the buying center will specify desired supplier attributes and indicate their relative importance .
To rate and identify the most attractive suppliers , buying centers often use a supplier evaluation model.
Methods for Researching Customer Value
• Internal engineering assessment
• Field value-in-use assessment
• Focus-group value assessment
• Direct survey questions
• Conjoint analysis• Benchmarks• Compositional
approach• Importance ratings
Order-Routine Specification
• After selecting suppliers, the buyer negotiate the final order, listing the technical specifications, the quantity needed , the expected time of delivery, return policies, warranties, and so on.
