Intro to Vendor Management

With Purchaser, you can centralize all your vendor data into a single source of truth. Manage your current procurement network while also discovering new vendors, ensuring all your information is organized and accessible in one place.

Key benefits of managing your vendors on purchaser include:

• Effortless RFQ Management: Send RFQs to vendors from both your existing network and newly discovered partners with ease.
• CC Vendor Contacts: Send one RFQ email to reach your entire vendor network instantly. Purchaser intelligently groups your recipients to CC contacts from the same vendor, while BCCing across the vendor pool to ensure each bid remains private.
• Centralized Vendor Information: Save crucial vendor details like account numbers, addresses, phone numbers, and W-9s in a single, secure location.
• Streamlined Contact Management: Create and maintain a comprehensive email directory for all your vendor contacts, making communication faster and more efficient.

Getting Started with Vendor Management

Any email you send an RFQ to will automatically be saved as a contact, allowing you to easily associate them with a vendor. It's like having a smarter, more organized inbox just for your procurement contacts.
