Overview
What this RAVS document does
Purchased products and services affect the quality of what a company delivers. A hiring client that configures this element wants to see that a contractor buys from approved suppliers, specifies purchasing requirements clearly, and verifies purchased product before use.
This document states your company's purchasing program in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: the purchasing process, the approved supplier list, purchasing information, and the verification of purchased product. It is written to a quality management standard. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.
