METHODS OF EVALUATION OF SUPPLIERS IN THE COMPANY SERENA D.O.O.

V teoretičnem delu diplomskega projekta sem opisala pojem, pomen in vlogo nabavne funkcije v podjetju. Na začetku sem opisala funkcijo nabave. Prav ta zagotavlja potrebno blago, materiale, razne storitve, opremo in druge potrebščine, ki so pomembni za poslovanje celotnega podjetja. Glavna naloga nabave je, da zagotovi nemoten potek proizvodnega procesa ob pravem času in primerni ceni. Pri tem ima veliko vlogo pravilna izbira dobavitelja. V nadaljevanju sem predstavila pomen izbire in ocenjevanja dobavitelja ter metode in kriterije, po katerih se ocenitev izvrši. Podjetje mora na začetku najprej narediti seznam zahtev, ki bi jih naj izbrani dobavitelj zadovoljil, ter strmeti k takim dobaviteljem, ki se prilagajajo tem zahtevam in podjetju prinesejo največ koristi. Podjetja izbirajo med različnimi načini in metodami izbire ter ocenjevanja dobaviteljev. V praktičnem delu sem predstavila in raziskala postopek ocenjevanja in izbire dobaviteljev v podjetju Serena d.o.o.. Zelo pomembno je, da podjetje temeljito preuči dobavitelja preden se odloči za trajno sodelovanje.In the theoretical part of my diploma work, I described the notion, significance and role of the purchasing function in a company. First, I described the purchasing function. It provides the necessary goods, materials, various services, equipment and other supplies essential for the operation of the entire company. The main aim of purchasing is to ensure smooth operation of the production process at the right time and at a reasonable price, whereby the proper selection of suppliers plays a key role. Then, I explained the significance of supplier selection and evaluation as well as the methods and criteria used in the selection process. Initially, any company should draw up a list of requirements to be met by the selected supplier and should aim at choosing such a supplier who adapts to the company’s needs, thus bringing most benefits to the company. Various supplier selection and evaluation techniques and methods are available to the companies. In the practical part of the diploma work, I analysed and described the supplier evaluation and selection procedure in Serena d.o.o. It is crucial that any company carefully examines potential suppliers before making a decision on long-term cooperation
