Purchase is an important link in business management. Practically, it covers the applications of various theories such as psychology, financial management, international trade, the science of law and other social sciences. However, owing to the relative conservative nature of purchase and the environment under which the ordinary enterprises lay particular stress on sales performance, the real effect of purchase is usually overlooked by enterprises when they receive good profits. In terms of the purposes of business growth and acquirement of market competitive advantages, no matter whether the core competitive power of a company is service, sale or production, or whether a company is of profit-making or non profit-making nature, a purchasing system with economic effect is an indispensable and basic appeal for the operation and management of the company.
The primary purpose of this study is to carry out academic study on the differences between theories and practices in the purchasing system and its implementation. The study tries to prove that the excellent ¡§system¡¨ highly praised by the society is not only constructed on a single basis of ¡§formal rules¡¨ with the theory of new institutional economics. It is believed that there are still other factors affecting the result of implementing the system.
Through researches, analysis, and comparison between the system and its practical implementation, this thesis finds that the study results are consistent with the three aspects of the new institutional economics: ¡§informal limits¡¨, ¡§formal rules¡¨ and ¡§institutional changes¡¨. That means all drawbacks come from the failure of ¡§informal limits¡¨ such as people¡¦s code of conduct, norms of conduct, customs, culture, habits, etc. and loopholes found in the ¡§formal rules¡¨ under limited norms. Meanwhile, if the root causes of such system failure can¡¦t be found from the informal limits, even though we impose more restrictive conditions on the purchasing system and force it to produce an institutional change, the formal rules after such change are still insufficient to become the main tool for eliminating all drawbacks or an effective method for solving the corrupt practices.
