Methodology

1. Feasibility study

 

Based on the client’s needs, we analyse the basic project parameters to determine the feasibility of the international purchasing process.

Basic project parameters:

Logistical:

        • Batches.
        • Frequency of deliveries.
        • Weight/volume.
        • Freight costs.

Customs/Legal:

      • Customs duty.
      • Import restrictions.
      • Tariff preferences.

Production:

        • Technical and productive means.
        • Production capacity.
        • Certifications and quality standards.

2. Source selection process

 

Thanks to its extensive experience, Gestión de Compras has developed a vast and continually expanding network of qualified suppliers.

In order to be part of our network, suppliers must complete an approval process based on an audit of their factory, including quality, environment and social accountability requirements (health and safety, no child labour, working hours, compensation, etc).

Gestión de Compras classifies suppliers and keeps their profile current.

3. Terms negotiation

 

Negotiations are based on the conditions specified by the client, and the ultimate selection of a supplier will depend on the negotiated terms.

Every negotiation must take into account various key technical, financial and logistical issues to produce the quote that best aligns itself with the customer’s needs.


4. Order tracing through manufacturing, quality and logistics

 

Our specialised professionals in the field work closely with the manufacturer’s production and quality departments to develop manufacturing and quality control strategies.

Gestión de Compras traces the order through each stage to make sure that the established delivery dates and quality standards are met.
