Procurement standard is a measure and determine whether the purchase of products or services meet the requirements of the standard. Procurement standards generally include technical standards, quality standards, price standards, delivery time and other aspects of the requirements. Procurement standards can provide clear objectives for suppliers and purchasers, help them better understand what each other needs and provides, and ensure the quality and correctness of products and services in the procurement process.

Setting procurement standards is a very important step in managing the procurement process. Procurement standards are usually established by the procurement department or quality control department, and must ensure compliance with laws and regulations, national standards and related product, service quality and performance requirements. The quality and rigor of procurement standards will have a direct impact on procurement costs and supply chain security. Only by making clear procurement standards can we better ensure the control of procurement risks and the selection of suppliers.

Procurement standards are also one of the important standards to assess the quality and supply capacity of suppliers. When evaluating suppliers, purchasers often refer to indicators such as technical capabilities, manufacturing processes and quality control capabilities, and delivery capabilities. Based on the evaluation of procurement standards, the purchaser can select high-quality suppliers that meet the requirements, so as to ensure the stability of the procurement process and the quality and reliability of products and services. At the same time, suppliers can also use procurement standards to further strengthen and optimize their own business and improve their market competitiveness.
