Responsible for buying the goods or services a company needs in order to function. Purchasing personnel aim to buy the highest quality equipment or services for the lowest price. They evaluate suppliers according to cost, product quality, and delivery speed. They negotiate agreements with the vendors that offer the materials or services that best suit company needs for the greatest value.
Purchasing employees are also responsible for material use within the company. They take inventories, keep records of product performance, and make note of the frequency and volume of supply deliveries. They may also establish budgets to help reduce internal spending and waste of resources.

Things may finally be turning around for the construction market. After one of the worst economic recessions in US history followed by several years of recovery, it appears that construction starts and spending levels are beginning to show sustained gains.
Why are so few women pursuing careers in this field compared to other industries? The answer may lie in a higher prevalence of health and safety hazards, and one way to eliminate this barrier is the use of proper personal protective equipment and clothing (PPE/PPC).
Dodge Data and Analytics recently released its 2016 Dodge Construction Outlook, which predicts a continuation of the recent resurgence within the construction industry.
