Abstract: | Emergence of a new discount pricing schedule called Business Volume Discount becomes a major obstacle for procurement managers in finding the best purchasing strategy. In the context of business volume discount, a supplier offers discounts on total dollar amount of sales volume, not on the quantity or variety of the products purchased from the supplier. This paper describes a Procurement Decision Support System (PDSS) that has been successfully implemented to improve the purchasing activities of regional Bell telephone companies. |
