Renuka
Machines Manufacturing Corporation
Renuka Thomas,
President of Renuka Machines Manufacturing Corporation (RMMC), is concerned
about company’s choice of suppliers for cleaning brushes, which are used in the
company’s data processing equipment. Renuka occasionally plays tennis with
Sheela George, President of George Machine Company (GMC), one of the company’s
suppliers of cleaning brushes.
Recently, Sheela complained
to Renuka that her company has been having difficulty in getting the
traditional share of Renuka’s business. On the last buy, Sheela’s company
failed to get any business, even though Sheela believed she was the lowest
bidder. Renuka tells Sheela that normally she does not get into the details
procurement, but she promises to ask her Purchasing Manager, Dannis Chako to
investigate.
The next day morning,
Renuka calls Dannis Chako and tells him of Sheela’s complaint. He said (says),
that he does not want influence the company’s procurement policies, but he does
not feel that Renuka should investigate to make sure that Sheela’s firm was
treated fairly.

buying. Quotations for an order of 20,000 units were as under:

Data Matics Electronics Company |
Rs 2.23 |
