Vendor prices can fluctuate, sometimes significantly over time, resulting in unintended higher costs. A periodic price analysis should be performed to determine there are no overcharges or no discrepancies depending on the operating unit and inventory delivery site. A sudden price change may also indicate an expired contract or a significant, unnoticed increase. This session will review key Oracle reports to leverage your purchasing across the business, and to identify inventory item cost savings opportunities.
