Procurement materials can be broken down into two major categories: indirect and direct.

u2022

Indirect procurement involves any commodity or service that a company buys that does not result directly in finished goods.

u2022

Indirect procurement can be divided into two groups: ORM (Operations Resource Management) materials such as office products and travel services, and MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Operations) materials such as replacement parts.

u2022

Direct procurement involves materials purchased for use in the manufacturing or distribution supply chain that are "directly" related to the production of finished goods.
