Best Practice Procurement Cycle
A best practice procurement process could include all of the following steps or be shortened to suit the needs of the business or the item being procured. In larger and government regulated organisations the need to comply with rules and guidelines will dictate minimum procurement standards.
Whether you are heavily regulated or just need a quick competitive request for quotations, Triber is quick, low cost and easy to use.
