One system to control engineering procurement across sites
From heavy equipment to field services, Precoro unifies procurement across all your projects and sites. If you’re wondering what procurement engineering is in practice, it’s exactly what our platform delivers: control over orders, budgets, and suppliers in one place to keep projects moving.
Misaligned specs, duplicate orders, and last-minute delays happen when each project buys on its own. Precoro makes engineering procurement clear and consistent with an intake process that captures the right details upfront—equipment specs, supplier terms, delivery dates, and budgets. Custom forms and approval workflows keep requests aligned with project needs, while built-in tracking keeps finance and field teams on the same page.
Engineering procurement companies run multiple projects at the same time, each with its own budget, supplier list, and approval rules. With Precoro, you can set individual budgets and custom approval workflows for each location with one clear view for engineering procurement management. Project teams get the parts and services they need without delay, and managers see exactly where money goes while projects stay supplied and on schedule.
Stop paying different prices for the same part. When teams order separately, you miss discounts, deal with mismatched specs, and risk delays. With Precoro, requests from multiple sites can be combined into one blanket PO so you buy in bulk, secure better terms, and keep quality consistent. With engineering procurement services, every project gets lower costs and exactly the parts and services it needs on time.
Engineering projects can grind to a halt when specs don’t match or safety rules get overlooked. Precoro keeps every request, order, and invoice tied to the right project, supplier, and budget in one system. You get a clear record from start to finish, so audits run faster, quality standards stay intact, and managers know every purchase meets safety and regulatory requirements. No more chasing lost documents or guessing which order caused the problem.
You don’t need to rip out your ERP to fix engineering procurement. Precoro plugs into the systems you already use and keeps data in sync, so teams stop re-typing orders and updating spreadsheets by hand. While ERP handles the big financials, Precoro runs the day-to-day procurement—requests, approvals, suppliers, and budgets—all in one place.
Staff from engineering procurement management shouldn’t have to wrestle with paperwork to get the parts they need. Set up supplier catalogs with approved materials and equipment so teams can choose only from vetted vendors. Use simple request and PO templates with drop-downs to capture specs, quantities, and project codes without errors. Every purchase meets engineering procurement company standards, while engineering teams keep projects on schedule.

Good enough for a non-finance expert with a great UX/UI. Precoro stands out for its clean and simple interface, which makes requesting and approving purchase orders much easier. I also love the efficiency of the approval flow. It works great for our needs.

Good program for keeping track of orders. We like this to be able to see what we have ordered for specific areas throughout our factory. [No cons] as of right now, very easy to maintain.

The best things in Precoro are how it's very useful when your business has a lot of Purchase Orders. I really like the approval functions so that no one can just approve a PO unless the set person for approving it. The organization of how Precoro creates from Req to PO and PO to Invoice, as well as the approval stage feature, is very helpful for us since we get purchase requests from our engineers every day.

Easy requesting, tracking, and budgeting. The system is simple to use, even for people who don’t handle purchasing and finance-related tasks regularly. Managing approvals and tracking spending used to be scattered across emails and spreadsheets, which made it hard to stay on top of things.

Precoro is a simple and highly efficient vendor and expense management workflow system that is value for money. I couldn't recommend it more highly to any [engineering procurement] company looking for an easy-to-implement tool that is cloud-based, virtually plug-and-play, simple, and intuitive to use. We've saved enormous time and substantially enhanced our internal controls environment with the implementation of Precoro.

A year ago, we had everything manually, and until last month switched to Excel. My team got tired of this, and the director decided to find software that would exclude the manual process as much as possible. Preсoro was an excellent find! The director added the entire team to the product to keep everything under control. We have many budgets for operational, office costs. Precoro gives good visibility of all budgets and management over funds.

Really love the simplicity of the system. I have found in the past how complicated and confusing PO systems can be which puts off people raising them. The simplicity of the [engineering procurement] system allows clarity and efficiency in what would usually be a complicated system. I really like the use of the budgeting tool and also the implementation team are very responsive and kind.
