Procurement for Kenya

Purchasing discipline, without the paperwork theatre

Requisitions, approvals, quotations, and receiving in one auditable chain — so spend follows policy and the audit file assembles itself.

Sound familiar?

If any of these ring true, you are exactly who this was built for.

Approvals by hallway

Verbal go-aheads and retro-dated signatures — untraceable when questions come.

Maverick spend

Purchases that skipped the process entirely, discovered at invoice time.

Supplier loyalty without evidence

The same vendor wins everything and nobody can show why — or why not.

Paying for what never arrived

Invoices approved against memory instead of matched against deliveries.

How teams get started

1

Load your thresholds

Approval bands and committee rules configured to your procurement policy.

2

Onboard your suppliers

Your vendor list imported; RFQs flow to them from day one.

3

Run purchases end-to-end

Request → approval → quotes → PO → receipt — every step on the record.

Frequently asked questions

Does this fit private companies or just institutions?

Both — the same chain (request, approve, compare, receive, match) protects a distributor's margins and an institution's compliance. Thresholds and formality scale to your policy.

Can it enforce our specific approval matrix?

Yes — approval chains are configured by amount, category, and department, so the KES 500,000 purchase takes a different path than the KES 5,000 one, automatically.

How do suppliers interact with it?

Through the vendor portal: they receive RFQs, submit quotations, and see order status. Their responses are timestamped, which quietly ends quotation backdating.

Does procurement connect to stock and finance?

Fully — receipts update inventory, matched invoices post to the ledger, and committed spend counts against budgets. Procurement in isolation is just prettier paperwork.
