Relashionship between procurement and supply chain management

Procurement emphasizes on input; supply chain management focuses on output and delivery

While procurement has an input focus, supply chain management is more output-oriented and deals with what it takes to get your products and services into the hands of your customers as efficiently as possible.

Procurement deals with acquiring supplies; supply chain management encompasses all that and more

Procurement can be seen as a microcosm within the wider macrocosm, supply chain management.

While procurement only emphasizes building supplier relationships and managing them to ensure they can be leveraged to deliver the supplies your organization needs to function, supply chain management includes all that into its big bracket.

As it stands, procurement exists as a branch of supply chain management since it assists in getting the inputs that get processed into finished products.

Procurement supports production; supply chain management encompasses production and distribution

Procurement exists as a very significant support function within the business management equation as it’s essentially only concerned with ensuring the constant flow of the supplies an organization needs to process into finished products.

Supply chain management, on the other hand, is the main function that is supported by procurement.

In essence, supply chain management deals with how supplies are transformed into finished goods and distributed to the customers.

Supply chain management is all-encompassing, while procurement exists to support it with the input it needs to work.

Both procurement and supply chain management are quite similar in many ways.

Both procurement and supply chain management assist in delivering your business goals and targets

Supply chain management and procurement are both internal operations; they may require input from external stakeholders but their core still remains within your organization
