  • Purchasing is focusing on short-term goals: like having a transaction 'right'
    • right quality, right quantity, right cost, right time, and right place
  • Procurement is focuses on strategic, long-term goals like gaining a competitive advantage or aligning itself with corporate strategy. The process has to do with ordering the goods once vendors have been put in place by the procurement department.
