From procurement plans and procurement strategies to drawing up selection criteria; our experts listen carefully to your requirements and take decisive action. You can contact the procurement department for anything to do with procurement, such as drawing up technical specifications, requesting quotations, checking supplier documents and recommending the supplier with the best technical and/or commercial offer.
The right quality, within the set budget
Our procurement specialists understand better than anyone just how important procurement is to your organisation. Because we are independent, we ensure the best range of goods and services, delivered exactly on schedule and within budget. In addition, we are happy to provide support during pre-inspection meetings, inspections – including final acceptance – and the management of expediting. Our clients regularly tell us that they are pleased with our efficient way of working. Because we can draw on years of knowledge and expertise, you won’t be faced with any surprises.
The steps that lead to the best offer
You want to free up some time by outsourcing your procurement activities to us. Our procurement specialists understand this and know how to take the pressure off you. We are critical, ask the right questions and deliver on our promises.
We follow these steps during the procurement process:
- We define the general procurement plan
- We prepare the procurement reports (progress, budget, expected delivery)
- You will receive our purchasing plan for each item
- We prepare the technical data sheets and request them
- On your behalf as the client, we will send the RFQ to the supplier
- Together, we will evaluate the technical and/or commercial bids, with the option of conducting the negotiations as well
- Once the PO has been prepared, we send it to the customer’s purchasing department
- We order the equipment or services. If desired, we can arrange for inspections and final acceptance tests.
We have been working with Vicoma for many years and have thoroughly enjoyed the collaboration. Thanks to its expertise and proximity, Vicoma brings added value as an engineering partner at our RFC plant in Veghel.
