I am a new engineer at a factory and our company want to purchase a new simulation software. Our maneger ask me to compare the software and discuss with the accounting department. Then they will buy for us. I found that the process communicates with the accounting department waste me a lot of time. Because most of them only care about the price. So, how do your company purchase a software?
Will you can purchase for your own then apply for reimbursement or you should ask the accounting department to buy them for you?
Yes, its all about money.
Why does the company need simulation software?
How will it help the company?
How much time it'll save?
How much mistake it'll reduce?
How much faster design can be done?
Compare the software yourself and give them a report of why you pick one over the other.
