BUILDFitters Vendor Management App

AEC is a fast-paced industry with tight deadlines, tight budgets, and set-in-stone procedures, all the while trying to create the next architectural masterpiece. The visions of architects are brought to life by the construction crew, but nothing can be truly accomplished in a construction project without the right vendors. Vendors make or break the project; after all, they are responsible for the quality of material you will eventually stamp as your creation. However, anyone in construction knows that it is not just about finding the right vendors. It is more about managing them. It is about keeping the conversation clear and everything on record. It is about documenting the process, tracking invoices, RFPs, RFIs, submittals, and more.

BUILDFitters Vendor Management App is a one-in-all solution to all these challenges. Built on the reliable foundation of Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement applications, the web-based application can seamlessly integrate with all Microsoft products. The web app allows for advanced vendor management and audit capabilities that help ensure that the products procured from your approved vendors are delivered, handled, and documented according to schedule, expectations, and quality standards.
