Chapter 6 Procurement Department

I wandered around Sijiucheng for another day, but didn't get to visit places like Zhengyangmen, the Forbidden City, the Summer Palace, the Great Wall, and Shichahai. It's not because I didn't want to go, but mainly because I couldn't get there relying on my own two legs and the limited number of buses. I could only familiarize myself with some specific conditions around the Siheyuan.

The next day, Master Lei and his team had already started moving materials and making preparations for the decoration. The decoration materials had also been registered with the street office.

I took some time to go to the street office and got a new house title and grain certificate.

The three-day settling-in time was over quickly. Today was the day Wang Jianfeng officially started working in the Purchasing Department. He got up early in the morning, put on his backpack and went to the steel rolling mill. After showing his work badge at the guard, he went directly to the office area of ​​the Purchasing Department.

After entering the purchasing department, I went to the chief's office first and reported to Chief Wu.

Section Chief Wu briefly introduced the current situation of the Procurement Department.

The Purchasing Department has a section chief and two deputy section chiefs, with more than twenty purchasing agents divided into six groups. The section chief, Wu Weiqiu, is a very versatile person, but he is also a relatively honest person. The two deputy section chiefs, Zhang Shengli and Zhao Quan, are usually not in the department. Only Section Chief Wu handles work in the department, and there are two office clerks who are responsible for running errands and doing statistics and other miscellaneous tasks.

Wang Jianfeng was assigned to Group 3, which was under the jurisdiction of Deputy Section Chief Zhang Shengli.

"dong dong dong"

"Come in"

"Chief, what do you want from me?"

"Zhang Hai, you are here. This is our new colleague Wang Jianfeng. You don't have to go out on field work today. You can talk to Wang Jianfeng about the procurement process and some specific situations," Section Chief Wu said to Zhang Hai.

Today, only Zhang Hai does not have to go out on field work. He is responsible for providing training and guidance to Wang Jianfeng.

Then Zhang Hai gave Wang Jianfeng a brief introduction to some of the relevant procurement processes and some information about the procurement department.

"During normal working hours, the requirements for Group 3 of our purchasing department are not so strict. It's okay if you don't come if you have something to do, as long as you can complete the purchasing tasks. Purchasing tasks will be issued at the beginning of each month, and the completion status will be counted at the end of the month. Tasks will be handed in every Monday to verify the completion progress. Everyone will divide the area for purchasing to avoid malicious purchases. There are two people in the urban area who are responsible for special purchasing, and other purchasers have to purchase from the surrounding rural areas. Now our factory has no one in Miyun and Changping, so those places are now yours."

"The tasks of our Procurement Section 100 are basically fixed. Purchasers are assigned targets based on their level, with the minimum base of kilograms of meat, eggs and other nutritious foods per person per month.

That is, for a clerk at level 12 and an administrative level 30, the quota is 100 jin

The target for clerks at level 11 and administrative level 29 is 150 catties

The target for clerks at level 10 and administrative level 28 is 200 catties

. . . . . Level 7 clerk, administrative level 25, the target is 350 kilograms

Level 6 clerk, administrative level 24, quota 400 catties

It basically increases gradually, with 50 kilograms added at each level. It is that simple and crude, until it is upgraded to a deputy subject, there will basically be no such restrictions.

Generally, grain is not allowed to be used to offset the salary. In special circumstances, fine grain can be used to offset the salary at a ratio of 1:6. You just joined the company this month, so it will not be counted in the assessment. It will be counted in the assessment starting next month."

"Don't think this base number is high. According to the national supply standard for large kitchens, our factory with 10,000 employees needs at least 600 kilograms of meat every day, which is almost 20,000 kilograms per month. The key is that there are also small kitchens for cadres, and when there are receptions, there will be more. We need to prepare dozens or hundreds of extra meat every day, which means 2,000 to 3,000 kilograms of meat per month."

"We are now implementing a planned economy. All supplies are supplied according to the plan. The allocated supplies are insufficient, and there is a big meat gap every month. Especially our steel mill is a heavy industry. In order to ensure the physical strength of the workers, the consumption of meat is even greater, so our task is very heavy."

The key point is that the city of Beijing has the largest number of factories and government agencies in the country, and it is not just the steel mill that purchases unplanned materials, so the pressure is extremely great.

"You are here to do things, so your task base should be higher than that of ordinary buyers. You should work hard to complete the tasks and get a regular job as soon as possible. If you can complete the purchasing tasks for six consecutive months, you can be a regular employee. If you can exceed the tasks, you can also be a regular employee in advance. If you cannot complete the tasks, your regular job will be delayed."

Your promotion in the future is also related to the completion of the procurement target. If you can complete it for six consecutive months, you can be promoted one level, but the corresponding work targets will also increase, and the work difficulty will also increase. If you fail to complete the targets, you may be demoted, or you can apply for transfer to other departments if you have connections. Achieving 80% of the targets will retain the basic status.

Now the entire procurement department is mostly composed of clerks at level 9 and 10, and there are only a few at level 7 and above. Although you have a high level and a high starting point when you first arrive, your procurement targets are also correspondingly high, and the pressure is also relatively high.

By the way, the purchasing department doesn’t have any spare bicycles now. If you want to use one, you can only queue up and apply in advance. Otherwise, you have to find a way yourself. You can only find a way to get one yourself, and then apply for it when one becomes available. However, looking at the current situation, it is probably hopeless. In the end, you still have to find a way to buy one yourself, or get a second-hand one if you have connections.

Otherwise, you can only go to the countryside to get supplies by cart. There are some carts in the yard and you just need to register and use them.

In this way, Wang Jianfeng followed Zhang Hai to learn for the whole day, and kept asking questions when he didn't understand. After most of the day, he basically understood the situation of the purchasing department, his own job responsibilities, and the basic purchasing process.

In the afternoon, Zhang Hai also gave Wang Jianfeng a basic price list for material purchases and told him that he could purchase anything as long as the price did not exceed this price. If the price exceeded this price, he had to apply for approval. Then he took him to the Finance Department to receive 300 million yuan in purchase funds. The specific amount of expenditure was based on the actual situation, and the accounts would be reconciled and handed over every week.

"Okay, Jianfeng, that's all for today. I have taught you everything. Now it depends on your own practice. In the remaining ten days of this month, you should go and carry out the actual purchasing operations in the two areas assigned to you. If you encounter any problems, you can come and ask me. That's it. It's almost time. I also have to go to the countryside for purchasing. I haven't completed my task yet," Zhang Hai said to Wang Jianfeng.

"Okay, Brother Hai, thank you for bothering you today," Wang Jianfeng said thankfully.

Afterwards, Wang Jianfeng also left the purchasing department of the steel rolling mill after get off work. On the way back, he was thinking about the next purchasing work and work planning.

My fishing skills can finally be put to use, and my sideline business can also bring in some income. After spending these few days, there is not much money left in the small treasury. Without any additional income, I will probably declare bankruptcy. Next, I have to arrange for watches and bicycles, otherwise the purchase work and the big business of making money will not be able to proceed.
