SmartClaiMS Procurement

SmartClaiMS Procurement is an online based platform for spare parts procurement. The platform provides functionalities for a closed “call back” tender, where the buyer announces the purchase needs and the supplier bids with price offers, discounts, terms and delivery times. Important functionality of SMTS is that, in addition to buyers and suppliers, important role in the process is assigned to external observers. Usually this role is assigned to the insurance company or auto park owners, who will pay the repair job invoice and are interested in the prices of the materials. Launched in April 2013.

The implementation of a Trade Management platform provides a communication arena among all parties involved in claims servicing, and not only, including any vendor of materials – eg. Repair parts, paint, etc. The Vendor company receives direct access to the requests by the insurance companies and, in this way, it has the option to: Receive purchase orders directly from the insurance company, with detailed information about the model, damage ( including pictures), repair shop, etc. Submit proposals for any request with specific options for delivery, discounts, guarantee, certificates, etc.
