Inventory Control and Purchasing.

Nelson, Mason

American School and University, v53 n8 p46-47 Apr 1981

An inventory control system stimulates competitive bidding, resulting in the best price for an item. Other cost savings can be achieved by specifying prepayment of freight charges by the successful bidder, seeking standardization of products, and purchasing jointly with nearby municipalities and school districts.
