Abstract

Over the last two decades, the Purchasing function has undergone a considerable transformation from a support function to a strategic one for the supply hain management. Notably because it has become central in the selection of suppliers, from the process of creating an innovation, it is at the heart of the processes of creating new products in the company. This article evaluates the relationship between the characteristics of the purchasing function and the performance of the projects of new product development (NPD). The statistical analysis is based on a sample of 135 respondents, mainly buyers operating in companies in the French west.
