OUR STARTING POINT
Know what to buy.
See what is still outstanding.
Built around the purchasing work behind parts orders: comparing supplier offers, reviewing quantities, and following an order through confirmation and receipt. Our initial focus is UAE parts wholesalers and importers.
Review offers before you buy.
Import vendor quotations, compare prices, review part differences, and prepare purchase order drafts by vendor.
Keep track of what happens next.
Record vendor confirmations, accepted backorders, promised dates, and physical receipts as work progresses.
SELECTED WORK / DEVELOPMENT PILOT
Follow one order
through purchasing.
A single project connecting customer orders, vendor quotations, purchase order drafts, confirmations, and receiving. Built as a local pilot for reviewing a real business workflow.

- Review the customer order: four fictional parts, 105 units requested.
- Compare supplier offers: review original prices, adjusted prices and proposed allocations.
- Review purchase order drafts: supplier-specific drafts remain revisable before confirmation.
- Enter accepted quantities: the sample supplier accepts 30 units, including 10 on backorder.
- Keep backorders separate: supplier commitments do not mean goods have arrived.
- Start with a free 20-minute call, followed by a separately quoted paid pilot. Email brukim93@gmail.com.
ACTUAL PILOT SCREEN · FICTIONAL SAMPLE DATA
ILLUSTRATED EXAMPLE · FICTIONAL QUANTITIES
Twenty parts ordered. What happens next?
This simplified example explains the workflow. The comparison image above is an actual pilot screen; the quantities below are a separate illustration, not a client result.
01 · Review the order
A customer requests 20 units of SAMPLE-001. Check the part number and quantity before importing the order.
Customer requirement: 20 units02 · Compare supplier offers
Review adjusted prices, quoted quantities and part differences. Decide which offer fits the requirement; the lowest price alone does not settle every purchasing decision.
Decision: allocation for 20 units03 · Prepare the PO draft
Prepare a purchase order draft for the selected supplier. Review the lines before placing the order through your agreed process.
PO quantity: 20 units04 · Record the confirmation
The supplier confirms 12 units and accepts 8 on backorder. Record both separately, with any promised dates.
Confirmed: 12 · Backordered: 805 · Record physical receipt
Seven units arrive. Record the actual receipt: 5 confirmed units have not arrived, and 8 remain on backorder. Supplier confirmation and physical receipt remain separate events.
Received: 7 · Still outstanding: 13The workflow challenge
An order can involve several vendor offers, different prices, backordered quantities, and deliveries arriving in stages. Reviewing those details across separate spreadsheets makes the next decision harder to follow.
What we developed
A workspace for importing order and quotation files, reviewing prices and exceptions, preparing vendor-specific PO drafts, and recording confirmations and physical receipts.
What the pilot demonstrates
Traceable steps from imported order lines to purchasing and receiving records. This is a development pilot; production rollout and additional integrations require a separate scope.
ONE PROJECT, THREE CONNECTED AREAS
Import & review
Excel column mapping, customer and branch details, and vendor quotation imports.
Compare & prepare
Quotation comparison, exception review, vendor allocation, and purchase order drafts.
Confirm & receive
Accepted quantities, backorders, promised dates, and recorded physical receipts.
The demonstration above uses fictional sample records. Client identities, records and source files are not published here.
