Procurement Features

Procure to Pay

With BASSnet Procurement, office and ship staff can manage the complete purchasing process from procurement to pay. Our marine procurement solution has efficient material supply management, convenient integration to BASSnet Financials, and an effective purchaser-supplier connection. This gives you full control over the purchasing workflow and logistics for fleet and individual vessels alike. Importantly, gain access to critical business data on suppliers, prices, fleet contracts, RFQs, quotations, purchase orders, invoices, costs and budget statistics.

Contract Management

BASSnet’s Contract Management feature is invaluable to manage and store all supplier contracts. Gain visibility to the contracts in one place and view contract details of requisition items directly in the relevant requisition. You also reduce time spent on the purchasing process as the system automatically inserts contract quotations into requisitions, bypassing the supplier quotation request process through this marine procurement solution.

Shipment

BASSnet’s shipment features make life easier for you. Generate Shipment Orders based on Requisitions or Purchase Orders for chosen Forwarders/Agents, and track shipment movement, status and packaging details with our marine procurement solution. BASSnet’s Shipment Overview widget also lets you monitor the status, progress and location of all shipments within a selected period.

Integration to eCommerce

BASSnet Procurement comes with an integration to facilitate the RFQ/Quotes and Purchase Order confirmation with Suppliers who subscribe with our e-Commerce Partners. This feature automates the communication and document exchanges between Purchaser-Suppliers.

Integration to Freight Forwarders

With our Integration to Freight Forwarder, BASSnet enables you and the forwarder to seamlessly exchange logistics/purchase order information. The system automatically updates the Purchase Orders’ movements from the forwarder. This includes received purchases’ location, date, quantity received and packaging information. The progressive Purchase Order updates from the forwarder begin with the forwarder confirmation of the Purchase Order and continue until the goods are sent to the relevant vessel.

Integrations to Financials Systems

BASSnet Procurement comes integrated with BASSnet Financials (if purchased together) for financial transactions for Purchase Orders, Invoices, stock details and payment updates. Alternatively, integration with third party accounting systems is available via adapter. This integration transfers financial transactions for Purchase Orders and Invoices, and receives payment updates.
