Abstract
This article explores the awareness of effective purchasing and the priority that purchasing is given within small and medium size enterprises (SMEs). Results of a survey of 400 small firms are used to identify the challenges and responses faced by SMEs. Finally, the author suggests paths which might be followed by such firms in seeking to achieve best in class performance in purchasing activities.
