Identify
Review job material shortages and the quantities that need sourcing.
PROCUREMENT WORKFLOWS
Make the requirement the starting point.
Connect the materials an engineering job needs to a structured, reviewable sourcing process.
FROM SHORTAGE TO SOURCING
Give purchasing the full picture.
Identify uncovered requirements, prepare supplier RFQs and capture offers against the materials and jobs they relate to. Compare recorded material prices and delivery charges before proposing a supplier choice.
A manager reviews the choice. Approved sourcing can lead to a draft purchasing requirement and purchase order, retaining a trail back to the original job.
Supplier RFQ communications are currently preview-only. Offers are entered locally; the system does not automatically select suppliers or send RFQs.
