Purchasing
Purchasing is increasingly viewed as a core competency of any company due to the impact it can have on the bottom line. E-Max’s purchasing module will streamline your purchasing operation, enabling faster, more transparent and standardised decisions, whilst reducing errors and duplication.
Strengthen your buying position
Inefficient purchasing is just one sign that your company is ready for an ERP system so give your purchasing team a real advantage with E-Max ERP’s purchasing power. In conjunction with the rest of the system, our purchasing software can help your team minimise the cash tied up in inventory yet still maintain the flow of items to produce the required output. With the ability to bulk order supplies across multiple jobs, more cost efficiencies are realised, giving you that extra element of competiveness. Requisitions are raised automatically by the system once orders are released, ensuring no elements of a job are forgotten.
At the press of a button, late items can be identified. It’s simple to analyse supplier performance and review both purchase commitments and purchase accruals so there’s no nasty cash flow surprises. And with our straightforward reports, you can make sure your warehouse team are prepared when to expect all the key items being delivered within the next week. You can even use the system to raise purchase enquiries to gather prices from suppliers or source scarce or difficult to find material.
