Materials management for the power companies Reflections

[Abstract] vigorously promoting the enterprise of modern power supplies management, materials management to achieve a professional, standardized, institutionalized, sophisticated, scientific, further deepening the reform and strengthening the power of the socialist market economic system has a very important sense, this This was discussed and analyzed.

[Keywords] Electricity Purchasing Materials Management

As we all know, materials management is very important modern enterprise content management, through ordering, transport, reserves, etc. in the production of the enterprise sales process, the required use of a variety of materials in a planned control and organization. Good materials management, not only conducive to the rational use of materials enterprises, and improving the quality and quantity, can also help enterprises to reduce production costs and accelerate return of capital and working capital, improve corporate profits.

Electricity cost of materials mainly used in two parts, one is the cost of electricity production, a basic construction the same time, electricity production and a high degree of continuity of production and consumption simultaneously, so the safety and quality of supply power to the entire normal operation of society, has very important significance. So the power company's materials management requirements and the selection of the materials to be than the average industrial enterprises have a higher level, strengthen the power company's materials management, materials management and gradually improve standards, the safe operation of power production, has a very significance.

First, the power status and problems of corporate materials management
Currently, the domestic electricity business materials management level has been largely achieved the separation of business plans and procurement, procurement of goods and keeping the separation of materials, procurement and payments reconciliation separation, a clear system in these materials play an effective management the role of containment and restraint.

1 the operating mechanism of the lack of material procurement
(1) the price has not been standardized supplier management
At present, the power company's materials procurement department for supplier management and supervision in general relatively weak, there is no implementation of classification and grading of vendor management methods, and cooperation between the price the supplier has been in good times and bad, is not stable. Logistics Finance Department main responsibilities is to supervise the procurement of materials management, but can not afford the price of the corresponding supply-side management functions, procurement of materials it is difficult to achieve a truly effective supervision and management.

(2) sourcing operation of imperfect price mechanism
In materials management, supplier selection is the process of material procurement an important part of one of the usual requirements, it is important materials procurement should choose three or more suppliers for quality, price comparisons, and then preferred procurement. In the survey, we found that many power companies for various reasons, the product purchasing department in the inquiry process is not required to conduct the inquiry three suppliers at the same time, but directly to a supplier after the issue of product orders inquiry without selection.

(2) material procurement management system is not perfect
(1) inquiry, and supplier selection lack of strong oversight
Currently, power companies and materials management, procurement from initial consultation to determine the price of materials and material suppliers on prices within the purchasing department in the RFQ process to send out to the supplier which is issued by the Inquiry final decision on the purchasing department, throughout the inquiry process, the lack of external oversight and management.

(2) the purchase price of the lack of effective constraints
Now many power companies, and materials management departments did not develop a range of materials procurement price of the standard system, most of the corporate procurement plan, has a similar situation, is planned to provide the history of the purchase price of the purchase price is the weighted average price of these data do not have enough binding, the price is hard to say there will be false case.

Second, to improve the power company supplies management approach
1 power supplies centralized management of enterprise
Centralized management of the implementation of materials, can effectively improve the efficiency of fund utilization, save on unnecessary expenses necessary to implement centralized management of materials, advantageous enterprise materials management department of materials for storage, easy management to discover the lack of supplies, procurement, acceptance to achieve the intended use of materials, accurate, and is conducive to the recovery of materials and management, integrated materials procurement channels, strengthening the management functions of the materials management department, providing timely and effective decision-making for the enterprise, indeed, accurate analysis of material consumption, ease of Power Enterprise decision makers keep abreast of the law of various types of electrical supplies and the loss of financial macro-control costs in order to establish a more rational consumption and business fixed budget, enterprise economic, material and human resources optimal allocation of the maximum, to the attention of business operations invested in funds and products, "input-output ratio", that is, how to use less capital investment in exchange for greater product output, how to raise assets faster and better operational effectiveness.

Centralized management while the implementation of materials, but also to facilitate supervision, urged the materials management staff and the staff have more contact with the grass-roots units, communication, encourage them to actively take the initiative of the grassroots, to understand and master the material costs, loss of the actual situation, familiar with electrical expertise, clearly define the important responsibility of managing the power supplies to improve the management of staff responsibility and the work of service, to ensure that electricity production and supply and demand business.

2 strengthen the material management plans
Electricity production based on annual total construction investment, calculate material consumption and utilization of materials, material needs to strengthen the control of the development of effective materials management plans and the plan throughout the materials procurement, distribution, use, consumption , damaged, reserves in the process, and management plans should be highlighted the seriousness of the regulations and effective. the procurement of materials must also be run according to plan and implement a fixed budget control.

3 Materials Management Information
With more and more in-depth computer communications Technology into every industry, power companies must also be followed, materials management departments should take the lead so that management and systematic management, standardization, work network, material Information, the Information must be of modern methods, the materials planning, procurement, warehousing, distribution, supplier management into the entire network management, and enhance the accuracy of material Information and real-time, flexible use of network resources, share Information, and gradually improve business management aspects.

Third, the summary
With the continuous development of the power companies should also learn and use, full timing, location, and strengthen the advantages of materials management, improve the economic efficiency of power companies in the daily management, strengthening the material storage, improve material utilization vigorously to reduce energy consumption and electricity supplies, and reduce the occupancy rate of reserve funds, take advantage of existing enterprise resources in order to cut costs, the profit-maximizing enterprises, while the business itself, but also the improvement of enterprise system should be strengthened, in power enterprises to achieve real materials management systems, standards, and then continuously improve business supplies power management, materials management allows power companies to better future.
