Bentham Inc - Case Study Example

Memorandum Mary Simpson Approval of Bentham Inc. as Recommended Vendor Purpose The memo serves the purpose of seeking your approval to recommend Bentham Inc. as the new supplier of the major component for Integrated Data Corporation.BackgroundIntegrated Data Corporation and CompuPartsCompuParts have been the supplier for Integrated Data Corporation for the last three years. For the stated period, CompuParts has displayed good business practices. There is no doubt of the good relationship that Integrated Data Corporation has experienced while buying from CompuParts.

Our yearly purchases from CompuPart amount to $750,000. CompuParts merger with Deltron ComputersCompuParts merged with Deltron Computers about eight months ago. Since then, CompuParts has not been competent in its service delivery to Integrated Data Corporation, and a number of business misconducts have been noticed. First, there have been incidences of order shortages, which will get us out of business if they continue this way. Second, cases of discrepancies in billing have been noticed.

The bills do not reflect the cost of the actual purchases made. Another business misconduct is the increased number of damaged merchandise. Recommended VendorAfter a thorough evaluation, I thought it wise to look for a new competent vendor and to discontinue making orders from CompuParts. Therefore, I formed a committee that looked into the matter and researched several supply companies. Bentham Inc. emerged as the most reliable vendor and with the most reasonable prices. Therefore, I would like to seek your approval of Bentham Inc.

as the new vendor for Integrated Data Corporation. We have scheduled a committee meeting in the coming two weeks, and your response before the said meeting will be appreciated highly.
