A BACKGROUND & RATIONALE
Cagayan de Oro College is a private, non-sectarian institution founded in 1947 and was re- establish by the PHINMA Group of companies after acquiring it in 2005. Its main vision is to provide education with the most minimal cost at the highest quality of education. It provides basic education and college and professional studies to students who share the vision of the company that life would be better and success is within reach.
The College of Information and Technology is one of the largest college of COC-PEN. The CIT Office provides both the students and the faculties the technical support it needs to ensure a smooth sailing operation within the department.
Current practice for the request materials used for the office to fulfill its obligations would take a longer time than expected when to use. The processing of request would be dependent on the available stocks and materials available and request for a specific material or resource would take longer because the approval would be from the PEN Office based in Manila..
With this practice, one of COC-PENs Values e.g. providing quality education, might be violated when providing the needs of the students.

Activities Strength Weaknesses Opportunities Treats Canvassing of Quotations for materials requested by COC-CIT Office -PEN Purchasing Dept can directly acquire materials from their suppliers at a minimal cost -No proper evaluation from the requesting party COC-CIT
Dept Head of Purchasing Dept. will improve negotiation skills -Quality of materials may be at stake (not a specification for materials)

- The time of process and procurement to the delivery from COC-PEN Manila- COC may take a long time
- Can start the Job faster (less processing time)
- Can change the scope of work immediately - Business guidelines will be violated
- Might involve bribery during the awarding of the contract

-Dummy quotations may involve during the endorsement of the quotation summary
Areas of I mprovement:
- Canvassing of Quotations : Local Suppliers can supply the same materials at the same minimal cost of the supplier from Manila based PEN - Review of Quotations / Suppliers : Need to form a canvassing/purchasing committee for a proper evaluation and purchasing of a certain summary of quotations at the local level
