NM3D Ibérica now makes available in its online store a corporate purchase option that responds to the procurement needs of technical and purchasing departments. The service is intended for the acquisition of Renishaw products for CMM and allows preparing the order with issuance of a formal PDF quotation and subsequent validation of the purchase order.
Context and challenge
Many industrial companies follow procurement procedures that require purchase orders and internal approvals before confirming orders. Direct online purchasing, while fast, does not always integrate into the processes established by purchasing departments or the ERP systems of organizations.
This new option in the NM3D store removes that barrier, maintaining the convenience of selecting components online while adding the formalization needed to meet corporate procurement requirements.
The solution or technology
The corporate purchase process works in four steps. The user selects the Renishaw products in the online store, adds them to the cart and chooses the purchase-by-purchase-order option at checkout. NM3D Ibérica prepares and sends a formal PDF quotation, which can be validated internally according to the company's procedures.
After approval, the customer submits the purchase order. NM3D Ibérica validates the document, confirms the order and reserves stock. This flow ensures the transaction meets internal control requirements without compromising the speed of reserving material.
Industrial applications
The option is primarily aimed at companies that require contact probes, automatic change systems, scanning modules or fixtures for three-dimensional measuring machines. The Renishaw range covers solutions from manual inspection to automated configurations in production environments.
Sectors such as automotive, aerospace, toolmaking and molds benefit from this flexibility, since the acquisition of metrology components is often subject to technical and budgetary approval at multiple levels.
Results and benefits
The corporate purchase simplifies the reconciliation between agility and compliance. It allows the metrology technician or lab manager to prepare the order directly, while the purchasing department receives the formal quotation and issues the purchase order according to the usual procedure.
Stock is reserved only after the purchase order is validated, avoiding shortages or delays. The PDF formalization facilitates archiving and version control, common requirements in certified quality systems.
How NM3D can help
