Buy it properly, pay it once.

Money leaks out of buying in small, boring ways. A supplier invoices for more than was ordered. A delivery arrives short and nobody adjusts the bill. The same invoice is paid twice because two people were chasing it. None of these are dramatic and together they cost more than most fraud. Vantage Point closes the gaps by making each step hand its numbers to the next one: a bill that does not agree with its purchase order and its goods received note goes to an exceptions queue instead of into the ledger.

The chain starts before the order. A requisition asks for permission to spend, routed by value and department through approval bands, with the budget checked on the way past. A replenishment sweep turns products that have fallen below their reorder point into draft requisitions, so restocking becomes something reviewed rather than something remembered. Requests for quotation go to several suppliers at once and the responses are compared side by side before the order is raised from the winner.

On the payables side, imports are costed properly. Freight, duty and clearing charges are apportioned across a consignment so the shelf cost is the true landed cost rather than just the supplier's invoice value — the difference that decides whether an imported line is actually profitable. Supplier bills can be captured from a PDF or a photograph. Creditor ageing, supplier statements, remittance advice and spend analytics all read from the same records the buying was done in.
