The best way for the accounting department to know if a vendor contract should be eliminated or upgraded would be with a plant floor manufacturing execution system.  I mean, they could ask the production department, who then has to pull a man from producing to looking through files to see what has been ordered and when or how often.  Instead, with the system in place, the accounting department can look in the system and see what is necessary to keep and what can be dropped.  Further, if there are discounts on shipments, these need to be known by the accounting department for paying invoices.  What better way to track them?
