Compared with the material purchasing mode of most enterprises in China,purchasing agent is a new material purchasing mode.The biggest difference between it and the traditional material model is that the purchasing agent strives to differentiate the function of material purchasing from the enterprise and realize the externalization of material purchasing.

Advantages of purchasing agent
Under the material purchasing agent mode, most enterprises will no longer need to set up a special material purchasing department and reserve a large amount of inventory raw materials, and these work will be completed by a new material purchasing agent enterprise. This kind of material purchasing agent enterprise is completely independent of the customer unit, but different from the general purchasing intermediary. It is a purchasing agent specializing in one or several related types of materials from the customer's position. It has its own warehouse and professional material distribution team, and can deliver the materials to the place designated by the customer in time and accurately after receiving the customer's purchasing instruction.
Through this professional purchasing method and efficient material distribution team, the material purchasing agent enterprise can replace the work originally carried out by the purchasing department of the customer unit, and can help the customer unit to reduce the purchasing cost while developing itself.
Conditions of purchasing agent
Of course, if the purchasing agent model wants to survive and develop, it must meet the following three conditions: first, low price, that is, the price of materials provided by it is lower than that purchased by customers, which is the premise for the existence of purchasing agents; Second, high quality, that is, the quality of materials provided should meet the requirements of customers, which is the key to the existence of purchasing agents; The third is honesty, that is, to make customers believe that the materials they need can be delivered to the designated place accurately and timely, which is the basis for the existence of purchasing agents. This requires that purchasing agent enterprises must have a high sense of social responsibility, a highly professional material distribution team and highly professional management means, rely on efficient management and high-quality talents, and establish a good social reputation.
Problems with traditional purchasing
The traditional purchasing mode refers to a material purchasing mode in which a purchasing department is specially established within the enterprise to purchase the production materials required by the enterprise. It is the most common material purchasing mode in China. Although this mode has advantages in protecting the business secrets of enterprise raw material supply, and there is no need to worry about integrity, the cost is very high.
On the one hand, the daily cost is high. In order to ensure the timely supply of required materials, enterprises must set up special purchasing departments and allocate special purchasing personnel. On the other hand, in order to prevent stock out, a large warehouse must be established to store a large number of backup materials. These expenses are an essential cost for enterprises.
