Features: In fact, both procurement and logistics are chains of the supply chain, each performing important functions in the allocation of social resources. Procurement is at the upper reaches of the entire supply chain, serving as the precursor to any production and consumption activities, while logistics is the subsequent process of delivering materials optimally to customers. In a certain sense, Mr. Niuyulong's proposal of the concept of "managing logistics" is the first in the history of global logistics and fills the in China's logistics knowledge domain. To enter the cross-border procurement network, one must not only enhance the international competitiveness of products but also have a thorough understanding of the cross-border procurement system and operational procedures, especially the seven evaluation systems: Quality Assurance System, Delivery Supply System, Procurement Price System, Foreign Trade Capability System, Environmental Certification System, E-commerce Application System, and Safety Quality System. Based on these seven systems, global cross-border purchasers seek suppliers worldwide, looking for high-quality products with reasonable prices. This book holds certain positive and inspirational significance for governments, enterprises, and individuals alike.
