Registration

Set up forms that suppliers can use for structured input of data (name, address, bank account, contact, TIN/VAT IDs, etc.). Configure the fields of the form based on conditions (show/hide, look up data, run validations, mandatory checks, display hints, etc.).

Validations

Pass records through a rule-based, multi-stage, multi-role validation matrix that routes records to different stakeholders (procurement, finance, legal, HR/IT, etc.) for validation based on the status of the records (registered, qualified, offboarded, etc.).

Workflows

Configure workflows based on business logic (bank update, insurance expired, goods/service changed, supplier terminated, invoice received, etc.). Set up logic for notifications, recurring tasks, reminders, re-validation, out-of-office handling, etc.

Scorecard

Evaluate suppliers across measurable KPIs (delivery reliability, product quality, cost efficiency, SLA compliance, response time, etc.). Maintain a threaded comment history for all records and @mention users to trigger notifications.

Users

Configure role-based access control (RBAC) for employees and non-employees. Map roles (procurement managers, finance executives, suppliers, etc.) to permissions, ensuring that only the responsible user or group can view and take action on records.

Portal

Set up a secure self-service mobile/web portal for suppliers to interact with the procurement, compliance, and accounts payable teams. Upload documents (W-8/W-9 forms, professional license, insurance certifications, NDAs, SOWs, etc.).
