Procurement Simplified: How Our Software Eases Quote and PO Headaches

Procurement Simplified: How Our Software Eases Quote and PO Headaches
September 5, 2024
Sustainment Team

Have you ever resonated with either of the following statements:

  • “I spend way too much time managing RFQs.”
  • “A huge part of my job is simply chasing POs.”

Now, raise your hand if you’ve ever felt the headache that comes from viewing and maintaining a mass spreadsheet and/or long chain of emails. Go ahead, you can keep that hand up–but keep scrolling.

Supplier Relationship Management Done Right

This is the reality of how manufacturing has operated over the years. Sales and marketing teams get a CRM, or customer relationship management software. Finance and accounting teams get an ERP, or enterprise resource planning software. But what do procurement and sourcing managers get? 

The answer is that software has yet to be clearly defined for procurement and sourcing in manufacturing. Unless you’re an enterprise-sized business with an SAP-integrated ERP setup, you likely are relying on tons of spreadsheets and long email chains for your operations. And even then, you’re likely to encounter headaches using a software built for another department before your specific needs.

With all the emerging technology today, is that really the best tool available for this kind of work? We don’t think so, and that’s why Sustainment focuses on developing software that puts the right tools in the hands of procurement and sourcing professionals. 

No more quoting and PO management headaches from tracking down spreadsheet owners or long-lost emails in your inbox. Sustainment SRM is supplier relationship management done right.

Automate Quoting Activity to Cut RFQ Time in Half

Imagine a world where managing quotes doesn’t involve sifting through endless email threads or manually updating a giant spreadsheet. With Sustainment SRM, that’s not just a dream—it’s reality. 

Our software automates the quoting process, allowing you to send out RFQs, collect responses, and analyze quotes all in one place. No more toggling between different platforms or hunting for the latest version of a document. Everything you need is centralized, streamlined, and tailored to your workflow.

By automating the quote management process, you reduce errors, save time, and can focus on more strategic tasks—like building better relationships with your suppliers. It’s about working smarter, not harder.
