Describe how 3D printing technologies impact an organization's procurement process
What will be an ideal response?
With 3D printing, also called additive manufacturing, objects are manufactured through the deposition of successive layers of material. Just as two-dimensional printers deposit ink in two dimensions, 3D printers deposit material in three dimensions, layering material in the third dimension as it dries. Rather than relying on suppliers for all its raw materials, organizations may choose to "print" some raw materials in-house.
