Abstract
Discusses the types of terms and conditions that typically accompany purchasing contracts resulting from online reverse auctions for industrial components. Identifies the terms and conditions that perpetuate traditional batch-and-queue production practices. Concludes that buyers must construct terms and conditions that support the implementation of lean production by suppliers in order to achieve congruency with strategic business goals.
