"Under 'Procurement DX Support System', this company centralizes the procurement process of indirect materials (such as office supplies and repair items) and services for corporate clients.

Once a corporation signs a contract, cancellations are rare, and each corporate client contributes to Alpha Purchase's profit starting around two years after the contract"
