acquisition; achat : Ces termes ne représentent en fait qu'une partie du processus d'approvisionnement. Ils ne sont donc pas toujours interchangeables avec les termes «approvisionnement» et «réapprovisionnement», bien qu'ils soient souvent utilisés dans ce sens. 4, record 1, French, - approvisionnement
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
achat : Bien que plusieurs auteurs utilisent le terme «achats» (au pluriel) comme synonyme d'«approvisionnement», il serait plus juste d'utiliser le terme «achat» (au singulier) car «achat» (au singulier) désigne l'action d'acheter, tout comme les autres termes de la fiche. «Achats» (au pluriel) désigne un ensemble de biens ou de services. 5, record 1, French, - approvisionnement
