How Do You Spell REQUISITION?

1. A requisition is a formal written or verbal request made by an individual or organization to obtain the necessary materials, resources, or services needed to carry out a particular task or fulfill a specific purpose. It is commonly used in various administrative, governmental, and business settings to facilitate procurement and ensure the smooth functioning of operations.

   When an individual or department requires supplies, equipment, or other resources, they submit a requisition specifying the description, quantity, quality, and any other relevant details of the required items. This request serves as an official authorization for the procurement or acquisition process to begin.

   In addition to physical goods, a requisition can also involve intangible resources such as manpower, finances, or permissions. For instance, a military unit may submit a requisition for ammunition or vehicles, while a business might requisition funds for a project. Requisitions can be internal, within an organization, or external, directed to suppliers or service providers.

   Once a requisition is submitted, it usually undergoes a comprehensive evaluation process, including cost assessment, availability, quality review, and feasibility analysis. Based on this evaluation, the responsible party or department determines the approval or rejection of the requisition. If approved, the requisition is then forwarded to the appropriate team or supplier tasked with fulfilling the requested items or services.

   Overall, a requisition serves as a systematic and structured approach to ensure that necessary resources are obtained efficiently and in line with organizational policies and procedures.

The word "requisition" derives from the Latin term "requisitio", which is the noun form of the verb "requisitum".

In Latin, the verb "requisitum" is the past participle of "requiro", which means "to seek back" or "to demand". It is formed by combining the prefix "re-" (meaning "back" or "again") with the verb "quaero" (meaning "to seek" or "to ask for").

Over time, the term "requisition" was borrowed into Old French as "requisition" with a similar meaning. This Old French word then entered Middle English as "requisicion" in the 14th century and eventually evolved into the modern English term "requisition".
