English translation:goods' supply/supply of goods
Explanation:
Could also be parts' supply/supply of parts.
(As far as I can see, provisioning is used in telecommunications rather than goods/products that are then warehoused and inventoried.)

provisioning


Explanation:
Provisioning, invoicing and storekeeping. There has to be a kind of logig to this, suggesting these tasks all belong on the same side of the supply chain. In this case, the provisioning or providing side, not the purchasing or consuming side.
