They delegate to competent and ISO 9001 certified logisticians, such I.F.C., the procurement. This requires from a human-size company such as I.F.C., to reset their own organization, rethink their business model, to respond to industrial requirements while guaranteeing quality, flexibility, attractive costs, tracking products and traceability
