Every requisition sourced to an approved supplier before the buyer opens it
Purchase requisitions come out of your ERP or MRP, go out as RFQs to approved suppliers, come back compared on price, lead time and vendor status, and land as a PO ready to release.

How requisitions actually arrive
Scenario
The backlog is the job
200 open requisitions, four buyers, and the MRP adds more tonight.
Scenario
Approved vendors only
A cheaper supplier that is not on the AVL is not an option.
Scenario
Sole source, twelve week lead time
One qualified supplier and no second quote to check it against.
Scenario
Buyers researching instead of buying
Half the week spent finding shops that can hold the tolerance.
