CRM by role

CRM for the Procurement Director

For procurement, CRMconnect maintains a comprehensive supplier file-contacts, contracts, commercial terms, order history, and incidents-moving purchase orders out of email chains into a structured workflow with approvals and deadlines. Inventory and goods receipts stay perfectly synchronised with your ERP.

What blocks you today

  • Negotiated terms are trapped in spreadsheets or individual memory
  • Purchase orders are approved via email with no audit trail
  • Contracts expire without any automated alerts or notifications
  • Lack of objective data on supplier delays and performance

The KPIs you are measured on

  • On-time delivery rate per supplier
  • Total purchase order value per period
  • Lead time from requirement to issued order
  • Contracts expiring within the next 90 days

What a normal week looks like

  • Procurement requirements stem from real-time stock, not guesswork
  • Orders follow a structured approval flow with clear ownership
  • Every supplier has a dedicated file for documents and history
  • Expiring contracts trigger proactive alerts before they lapse

Centralised Supplier Management

Contact details, commercial conditions, contracts, order history, and delivery incidents are all housed in one file. When you negotiate, you have the full performance history at your fingertips.

  • Supplier evaluation based on real delivery data
  • Automated alerts for contract expirations
  • Document and annex management per supplier
