ForgeProcure connects your ForgeCAD bill of materials directly to vendor management, purchase orders, and inventory. The parts you designed are the parts you order — automatically.
THE PROBLEM
Most shops re-key BOM data into a purchasing system by hand — then wonder why the wrong parts show up.
The design lives in CAD. The purchasing lives in a spreadsheet or a separate ERP that the engineering team doesn't have access to. Every revision requires a manual hand-off that somebody forgets. ForgeProcure eliminates the gap — procurement reads directly from the live BOM.
ForgeProcure reads directly from the ForgeCAD bill of materials. When a part is added or a quantity changes, ForgeProcure knows immediately — no manual entry, no CSV exports.
Approved vendor list with per-part supplier preferences, lead times, and pricing history. Track which vendors supply which parts, compare quotes, and manage preferred supplier tiers.
Raise POs directly inside Forge — no separate ERP required. POs link back to the ForgeCAD revision that triggered them. Receive against open POs and automatically update inventory.
Set minimum stock thresholds per part. When inventory drops below threshold, ForgeProcure raises a draft PO to your preferred supplier. Review and approve with one click.
Actual material costs feed directly into ForgeOps job costing. No manual reconciliation — the cost of purchased parts shows up in your job margin the moment the PO is received.
Spend by vendor, by part category, by project. Identify consolidation opportunities, track price trends over time, and flag vendors with delivery performance issues.
