MANUFACTURING INDIRECT

Indirect Procurement for Manufacturing

Plants can request maintenance, MRO and services while central procurement keeps approval and supplier evidence consistent.

Trigger events

  • Multiple plants or warehouses
  • MRO buying bypasses central visibility
  • Service invoices lack acceptance evidence

Relevant RAQOZ workflow

  • Request at the operating location
  • Policy and value-based approval
  • Supplier invitation and comparable responses
  • Award, PO, receipt, invoice and evidence

What RAQOZ does not replace

  • RAQOZ does not replace MRP, production planning, plant maintenance, warehouse or accounting systems.

ONE EXAMPLE PURCHASE

From local need to central evidence

Maintenance requests a compressor service, procurement issues a scoped RFQ, operations reviews capability, and milestones support invoice approval.
