Getting started for suppliers

Audience: Suppliers and yards · 6 min

Prerequisites​

  • Your product catalog (SKUs, units, pack sizes)
  • Delivery zones and lead times

Steps​

  1. List in the catalog. Publish products with accurate units and pack sizes. Contractors compare across suppliers, so clean data wins.
  2. Receive bid requests. Contractors send requests with scope lines attached. No phone tag: quantities, specs, and job location arrive together.
  3. Quote itemized. Price line by line into the leveling view. Partial quotes are fine; flag substitutions explicitly.
  4. Deliver matched. Confirm tailgate delivery against the PO. Proof of delivery closes the loop on the job record.
  5. Invoice to the PO. Invoices that match the PO get paid fastest. Your pricing history builds the reorder: contractors reorder from the yard whose numbers they trust.

Contractor POs work by email and link. No contractor login is required. Supplier pricing integrations are planned, not live, so current quoting is manual and itemized.

Done when​

  • Your catalog is listed with units and delivery zones
  • You quoted one bid request line by line
  • Your first invoice matches its PO exactly
