<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Sourcing''' or '''Purchasing''' is a function or department in most [[company|companies]]. It usually focuses ''only'' on getting lower prices.<br />
<br />
However, if incredibly bad results will happen from buying the cheapest product, then, it will be possible to get sourcing or purchasing people to do at least enough [[moral purchasing]] to keep their jobs.<br />
<br />
Since sourcing affects [[pricing]], it must be the [[marketing]] department that decides that it is acceptable to use more expensive but also more moral inputs.<br />

[[Manufacturing]] constraints may make it hard to use any product other than one traditionally used.</div>142.177.85.87
