Abstract :Strategic management is the philosophy of the creation which provides a goal, a plan and a model for the competitive advantage. Companies define their own goals and generate the plan for goal according to this management philosophy. However, company can utilize successively from this philosophy so long as it is able to be adapted to all management systems such as product, inventory, manufacturing and etc... Purchasing management system is the one of them. It is a basic management unit where decisions, goals and plans are structured according to production and customer requirements which give the competitive advantage to each company. All of them can be managed strategically by being focused on the appropriate purchasing conditions including low-cost, high quality, and on-time delivery. In this study, we will determine variables and the relationships between them which affect in achieving the strategies of the company in terms of purchasing management system. Fuzzy cognitive mapping method will be selected in order to find them out because this method creates a map by using some strategies for system. The results will be presented at the end of the study.Keywords : Purchasing Management System, Fuzzy Cognitive Map, Relationship Maps for Cost, Quality and Delivery Drivers
