Procurement and sourcing challenges in this industry

Requirements differ by destination: the same product can need different evidence in Australia / New Zealand, China, European Union and other markets. Suppliers found through directories rarely state which of these they can evidence, so qualification work lands on the buyer after the supplier has been chosen on price.

The practical answer is to identify the regulations before searching, qualify suppliers against the documents those regulations require, and request the evidence in the RFQ rather than after the order.

Complyra checks product and supplier information against regulatory requirements to support procurement decisions. It does not issue certifications or guarantee legal compliance; final responsibility for compliance remains with the buyer and supplier.

Supplier qualification and the RFQ workflow

  1. Define the requirement and market

    Product, materials, quantity and destination decide which of the regulations below apply.

  2. Identify regulations and evidence

    The compliance check lists applicable regulations and the documents each requires.

  3. Qualify suppliers

    Suppliers register, upload certifications and are approved by an administrator before they can quote.

  4. Send the RFQ with the document list

    Suppliers quote with the evidence attached; incomplete quotations are visible as such.

  5. Compare and order

    Quotations are compared side by side; the accepted one becomes a purchase order for the ERP.

How Complyra helps

Complyra checks a product against the regulations above during sourcing, shows the result on each supplier match, writes the required documents into the RFQ, holds supplier certifications reviewed by an administrator, and turns the accepted quotation into a purchase order for the ERP.
