Centralized Purchasing Sample Clauses

The Centralized Purchasing clause establishes that all procurement activities for certain goods or services will be managed through a single, designated entity or department within an organization. In practice, this means that individual departments or subsidiaries are required to route their purchasing needs through the central purchasing office, which negotiates contracts, places orders, and manages supplier relationships on behalf of the entire organization. This approach streamlines procurement processes, leverages bulk purchasing power for better pricing, and ensures consistency and compliance with organizational policies.
