that involves many steps, agencies, and manufacturers.
Procurement lead time is defined as the time required to acquire the supplies and services and then placing them
in the hands of the user. This study was done to study the internal and external lead time in items procurement for
the beneficiaries of Ayushman Bharat Yojana at Pt. B.D. Sharma PGIMS, Rohtak. It was aimed at calculating the
internal and external lead time in the procurement of items from the month of March 2021 to May 2021(3 Month) in
the central Store. Observational study along with retrospective record analysis was done to calculate the internal
