buying center


Explanation:
A buying center brings together "all those members of an organization who become involved in the buying process for a particular product or service".[1] Buying centers are also sometimes known as 'decision-making units' (DMUs).[2] The concept of a buying center (as a focus of business-to-business marketing) represents an attempt to formalise understanding of purchasing decision-making in complex environments.

disagree  Daryo: definitely not - ONE hotel having SEVERAL centralised buying services would be a blatant case of contradictio in adjecto - it works the other way round: SEVERAL hotels ONE centralised buying service

centralised purchasing


Explanation:
The first occurrence of your term (without 'du marché') is talking of 'centralised purchasing'. After, when it talks of studying current availability, you can use 'centralised purchasing organisation/structure'.

The specific reference to 'centrales d’achat du marché' simply refers to those centralised purchasing structures already available on the market.

disagree  Daryo: I think you are missing the point - the problem here is the whole combination "centrales d’achat du marché" not "centrales d’achat" on its own, which would be quite straightforward. You keep ignoring the "du marché" bit ..

  -> Thank you Daryo, I had indeed overlooked that - I had meant to include it in my explanation. See new note.
