Define requirement
Send a BOM, item list or define a sourcing category.
Procurement Outsourcing
An operational extension of your procurement team.
BOM processing, supplier comparison, sourcing, consolidation and warehousing from one Berlin partner.
Delegate the workload between requirement and delivery.
You define priorities, approvals and commercial boundaries. ZWOD handles the operational work: supplier research, quotation comparison, follow-up, ordering, lead-time tracking, incoming goods and consolidation.
The model works for a single complex project as well as recurring categories and BOMs.
- defined procurement categories
- recurring BOMs
- framework agreements and call-offs
- supplier consolidation
- customer-specific stock by agreement
The workflow
A clear process with clear ownership.
Set priorities
Align price, timing, source and approval boundaries.
Compare sources
We research, compare and structure sourcing options.
Control procurement
Orders, questions and lead times are followed centrally.
Consolidate goods
Optional incoming goods, consolidation and storage in Berlin.
Deliver result
Coordinated shipment, documentation and clear status.
For international procurement teams
One European procurement interface instead of many suppliers.
Use ZWOD as one operational interface for European sourcing. We can combine multiple suppliers, currencies, lead times and shipments into one coordinated procurement and logistics process from Berlin.
“Procurement can be automated. Accountability cannot.”
