What are the common problems in blank forgings procurement?

Common problems in blank forging procurement mainly include the following aspects:

Supplier selection: In the procurement process, how to choose the right supplier is an important issue. Some enterprises pay too much attention to price and ignore the quality of suppliers, delivery time, service and other factors, resulting in many problems in the subsequent production process.

Price fluctuation problem: The price fluctuation of the forgings market is large, especially in the case of large changes in the raw material market, which can easily lead to too high or too low procurement costs, thus affecting the production efficiency of enterprises.

Inaccurate delivery date: Due to the particularity of forging production, it is often difficult for suppliers to accurately predict the delivery date. If the supplier can not deliver on time, it will directly affect the production plan and progress of the enterprise.

Unstable quality problem: Some suppliers have the problem of unstable quality in the production process, resulting in the purchase of forgings can not meet the requirements of the enterprise.

Inventory management problem: How to manage inventory reasonably and avoid the occurrence of inventory overstock or out of stock is also a problem that needs attention in the procurement process.

Contract execution problem: After signing the procurement contract, how to ensure that the supplier executes the contract in accordance with the contract requirements is also a problem that needs attention in the procurement process.

Technical support problems: For some forgings with high technical requirements, suppliers are required to provide necessary technical support and solutions. If the supplier cannot provide the corresponding technical support, it will directly affect the production efficiency of the enterprise.

Procurement process management problems: the non-standard and opaque procurement process easily leads to risks and waste in the procurement process.

In view of the above problems, enterprises need to pay attention to the comprehensive evaluation of the strength and reputation of suppliers in the procurement process, and choose the right suppliers; At the same time, strengthen communication and coordination with suppliers to clarify the responsibilities and obligations of both parties; Focus on quality monitoring and evaluation of suppliers to ensure the quality of purchased forgings is stable and reliable; Strengthen their own procurement process management, improve procurement efficiency and transparency.
