eprocurement

This area, which is accessible with temporary credentials provided by TETRASTORE and can be modified later by users, contains all the management panels of the various activities divided into two macro areas: BUYER and SELLER, also identified by the different colours of the top bar. A BUYER user has two ways to request a quotation:
  • through the visual e-Catalog
  • from the TETRASTORE E-Procurement QUOTATIONS panel
A SELLER user can respond to requests or make new proposals from the TETRASTORE E-Procurement QUOTE panel. This system's basic concept is to allow all commercial and technical users (Buyer and Seller) to easily interact with each other with advanced instruments and logics to provide a better and quicker service with less time and resources. Moreover, this cloud system's advantage is to allow all users to operate independently from any location without location constraints.
