By fixing the Rate Contract centrally by DGS&D, Price benefit,ie more discount can be obtained from price list by considering the all govt. purchase all over India.Advantage: Reduces the cost (cost benefit),reduced the process time, tendering,etc, reducing the lead time of procurement, easy ordering by referring the rate contract,timely delivery, reduces the lead time of procurement,supplier can not offer different different prices to different different org(org. to org) etc.

DGS&D:All Research Institutes are using Branded Chemicals. Rate contract can be fixed by DGS&D for all branded chemicals based on standard discount structure from the suppliers price list every financial year. The same centrally fixed DGSD discount structure along with the price list,other commercial terms and conditions to be posted and circulated thru the portal which can be used by all govt. org.purchase.

It should be tender based.

DGS&D has the best domain expertise and should use marketplace approach and not a software led approach. DGS&D should
a. Become a preferred partner for facilitating buy/sale of goods under rate contract for all the government and government enterprises
b. Follow principles of efficient price setting of rate contracts
c. Should create a membership database of its empanelled suppliers/ buyers like any other marketplace
d. Ensure : membership dev,risk mgt, price discovery & trade fulfillment

DGS&D should use existing expertise in e-markets available with institutions like NeML to create a easily accessible efficient e-marketplace hvaing national reach based on true market principles of transparency, real-time, online, verifiable and auditable market.

government departments Should start using ERP system for inventory the actual quantity of goods received should tally with the quantity billed. People secure tender by quoting less price per kg/tonne and then supply less quantity and take full payment. There is a need to make a change in this mechanism where in the special ERP system. Eg use of bar code system for purchase or goods inward.

Sir, I think the yearly budget should be broken down to quarterly buckets for departments as per their needs. And the departments will loose the money of they don't spend in that quarter.

To get the money back there should be approval process for the departments.

This can ensure the speed we are looking forward to for development.

This combined with transparent procurement can do wonders.

Perpetually the Department of Supplies and Disposal has earned a bad name all these years. Most of the suppliers complain about prompt payment. It both hurts the quality and promptness of the products
agreed to be supplied. During the Financial year the expenditure is 10%,20%,30% and 40% per cent in the four quarters of the year. It needs to be regulated. Rushing purchases at the fag end of the year is disastrous. Strict quality control from experts is necessary.
