Materials ordered around the job, not the branch checkout.

A field ordering proposition for a large national contractor, giving operatives a faster way to obtain materials while preserving central visibility and control.

Ordering built around the operative

Remove the branch checkout without losing control of materials or cost.

Operatives needed materials quickly. The contractor needed visibility, governance and fewer wasted journeys.

The proposition had to make ordering simple for people completing repairs in the field, while connecting each decision to an agreed range, approvals, live tracking, van stock and the contractor's wider planning process.

From material need to controlled fulfilment.

A practical field experience for operatives, connected to the management information needed by the organisation.

The material journey fitted around the repair, rather than making the repair wait for the material journey.

Operatives gained a faster route to core products and specials. The contractor gained visibility of orders, tracking, costs and van replenishment, creating a stronger connection between field productivity and materials management.
