Tech company Comstruct hopes to simplify the material procurement process by creating a platform connecting construction companies and suppliers. Ordering supplies and materials, taking deliveries, and reconciling accounts all involve paperwork, phone calls, and software—and there is a lot of potential for mistakes and confusion. Comstruct says that using their program with automated workflows can help companies save 10 minutes per invoice—for companies with at least 500 employees, that translates into labor cost savings of up to $200,000.
Typically, the materials procurement process can involve several disjointed steps. You might place an order over the phone, then sign for the delivery in person before finally receiving an invoice in the mail. Then, at some point, you have to manually reconcile all of these steps, ensuring they all match up, with the appropriate paperwork and without errors between each step.
Construct connects all of these steps, allowing materials suppliers to add notes to deliveries, attach invoices, and keep all information in one place, accessible to both parties. Over 1000 construction sites are using Comstruct to simplify the procurement process,
Top features include:
- Automated invoice verification means you’ll never have to reconcile invoices and delivery slips manually again.
- Real-time material data for controlling and documentation
- Determine consumption volumes and make ESG reporting easy
