Purchasing and Recommendations of Safety Apparel

Goals

To obtain information on the purchasing and recommendations of safety apparel in companies in the manufacturing/skilled trades/logistics industries.

Early Findings

In some companies the Chief Purchasing Officer makes decisions in relation to supply. This was the case during the 1950s and 1960s.
 Other titles include the president of purchasing, director of materials as well as vice president of purchasing and supply.
Purchasing is sometimes referred to as materials management, sourcing, logistics, procurement, supply chain management, and supply 
management.
A review of LinkedIn shows titles such as Purchasing Manager, Buyer for Contract Manufacturing Procurement, and Strategic Sourcing Manager just to name a few.
