Since meals for patients are diverse and complex, considering food safety, foods and food ingredients procurement become important responsibilities of the nutrition department of medical institution. This report is about the food ingredients procurement experience of Taipei City Hospital. We elaborate the contents, including the laws being complied, pricing, food marks, and principles and key points of setting procurement specifications, and so forth. Furthermore, we also offer some suggestions and reminders about the specifications of food ingredients frequently used in the medical institutions. Normally, the required specification clauses should be based on the characteristics of the objectives specified in the contract, and the principles should be specific in contents and with acceptability criteria. In addition, qualifications of suppliers and terms of packing and transportation should be clearly described. Moreover, the contractor penalty terms should be set up, and those may also depend on the extents to violate the contract and number of the accumulated noncompliance to ensure compliance of the food supplier. The number of the accumulated non-compliance can be suggested accordingly. The above-mentioned non-compliance includes delay in delivery, violation on contract terms, unqualified goods due to defects, abnormal supplying or replacing of the goods, or hazardous substance being inspected out. Provided that numbers of the accumulative non-compliance exceeding the pre-set threshold, the procurement contract can be terminated. This article also introduces some qualification marks and certification procedures about the food ingredients procurement. Under the government's policies and the existing resources, we hope that food materials with satisfactory and guaranteed quality could be obtained by medical institutions through procurement.
