Hi All,

can you please give some business example(scenario) where you are actually using the following ?
1) Business Purchase Agreement - BPA
2) Planned Purchase Order - PPO
3) Contract Purchase Agreement - CPA.


Thanks in advance

Here is one scenario for BPA (Blanket Purchase Agreement).

There is a canteen in a company which is manned by a contractor. The agreement between the company and the contractor is as follows.

1. There are different kinds of meals with fixed price for a year
Ex: Breakfast food1 - 5$
Breakfast food2 - 4$
Lunch1 - 8$
Lunch2 - 9$ , etc

2. The weekly schedule (meal type, number of meals) will be given to the contractor one week before.
For Ex: Day Meal Type Qty
---------------------------------------
Monday Breakfast food2 250
Monday Lunch1 275
Monday Dinner3 150

In the above case, BPA was created on the contractors name with all the meals and price details. Each week, there would be one release for the specified meals and quantity.

I am not a SCM consultant, I have just given what I have seen in one of my implementation

Cheers,
Sara

Scenario for BPA :
we have supplier of raw material
We do not know the volume for each week but we have an expected volume for the year.
So we define price for the year given the expected volume, then make release...

For standard : use for dual sourcing
We have a BPA with supplier A price 1.2.
We have only quotation from supplier B price 2

If supplier A is not able to supply all our needs, we make a standard purchase order with supplier B.

In fact supplier B is only for emergency and we do not want to have a agreement with him

Hope it helps

regards
