Construction procurement with a clear chain of decisions.

Requirements come from site planning or stock shortages. Your purchase team compares quotations and chooses the supplier. Proprite records every step and locks what was agreed.

Supplier directory and material catalogue

Keep supplier details in one place, including what each one supplies and the credit period you have agreed.

  • Supplier contacts and credit period
  • Items supplied by each supplier
  • Shared material catalogue

Where requirements come from

A purchase requirement starts from real need — the material plan of a scheduled activity, or a shortfall when the store cannot fulfil an indent.

  • Requirements from site planning
  • Requirements from stock shortages

RFQ to purchase order

Send requests for quotation, collect supplier quotations and compare them side by side. A person on your purchase team makes the selection; Proprite does not choose suppliers for you.

  • Requirement → RFQ → Supplier quotations
  • Side-by-side quotation comparison
  • Supplier selected by a person on your team
  • Purchase order raised from the selected quotation
  • PO values locked once issued

Receipt, QC and approval

Delivered material is received against the PO and inspected before it counts as stock. Final approval belongs to Admin, and Accounts is notified once it is given.

  • Goods received against the PO
  • Quality inspection of delivered material
  • Final approval by Admin
  • Accounts notified after approval

Rules built into Purchase Management.

  • Supplier selection is always a human decision

  • PO values are locked once issued

  • Maker-checker: the person who raises is not the person who approves

  • Final approval belongs to Admin

  • Delivered material becomes stock only after QC passes

Questions about Purchase Management

  • No. Proprite lays the quotations side by side so they are easy to compare, but the supplier is always selected by a person on your purchase team.
