Procurement software · UK

Every order.
Every supplier.
One ledger.

Intendant is a single portal for organisations that buy from three or more suppliers — whether you order from a fixed price book, request quotes every time, or run both side by side.

Midwest Construction has been running its weekly procurement on Intendant since 2026 — six site managers, four suppliers, ~£2.4m / year of trade purchases.
The problem

When ordering lives in inboxes, accounts pays for it.

The cost of multi-supplier procurement isn't the suppliers — it's the seams between them. Phone orders. Photographed dockets. Spreadsheets nobody trusts. Invoices that don't quite match anything.

Before

Six places, no single record

  • Orders by WhatsApp, phone, email
  • Price books in shared spreadsheets
  • Dockets photographed, then misplaced
  • Invoices matched by eye at month-end
  • No-one knows the live job spend
After Intendant

One ledger, end to end

  • Every order tagged to a job, on submit
  • Agreed prices applied automatically
  • PoD photos linked to the order
  • PO ↔ docket ↔ invoice matched on arrival
  • Live spend per job, per supplier
Three modes · one portal

Buy how you actually buy.

Not every supplier gives you a price book. Intendant covers fixed-price ordering, quote-per-order procurement, and everything in between — in the same workflow, on the same record.

What it does

Built for the full procurement loop — not just the front of it.

A catalogue and a basket are the easy bits. Intendant runs the parts that actually leak money: PO routing, partial deliveries, and three-way invoice match.

01 / CATALOGUE

One catalogue. Right supplier per line.

Your team browses one stock list — Intendant routes each line to the supplier you've agreed it with. Site staff don't need to know who carries what.

  • Per-item supplier mapping with agreed unit prices
  • Multiple alternates per SKU for substitution
  • Filters by job, category, recent orders
  • Search by code, name, or supplier

02 / ORDER BASKET

Tag every line to a job before it goes out.

The basket isn't generic — it knows the job. Every order is stamped with a job code on submit, so finance never has to ask who it was for.

  • Job code captured on every line
  • Multi-supplier basket splits into one PO per supplier
  • Approval rules optional — flow-through for trusted users
  • Generates a structured PO; not an email

03 / HISTORY & DELIVERIES

Every order has a status. Every status has a record.

Open, part delivered, overdue, complete. Drivers upload a proof-of-delivery photo from their phone; it lands on the right order automatically.

  • Live status across all open orders
  • Proof-of-delivery uploads from any device
  • Overdue orders surface with one click to chase
  • Part-deliveries tracked at the line level

04 / INVOICE MATCH

Three-way match without three browser tabs.

When a supplier invoice lands, Intendant matches it line-by-line against the PO and the docket. Quantity mismatches, price drift, ghost lines — flagged before they reach the ledger.

  • Line-level PO ↔ docket ↔ invoice match
  • Price drift flagged against agreed price book
  • Quantity discrepancies surface immediately
  • Approved matches push to your accounting tool

Spend, by job, by supplier, by week.

Not a quarterly export. Today's spend, this week's open POs, this month's cycle time — visible to ops and finance the moment it changes.

  • Spend by supplier, job, period
  • Cycle-time and overdue-order trends
  • CSV export for any view
  • Drill-through from any chart to the underlying orders

What's in the box

The full operation — not just an ordering form.

01

Supplier catalogue

One searchable item list spanning every supplier. Each SKU mapped to a primary plus alternates.

02

Price book imports

Upload supplier price lists per quarter. Expiry alerts before contracts lapse.

03

Order by job

Job codes stamped at the basket. Finance always knows which site each line went to.

04

Multi-supplier baskets

One basket, split automatically into one structured purchase order per supplier.

05

Approval flows

Approval thresholds by user, job, or value. Trusted users flow through; the rest queue for a buyer.

06

Proof of delivery

Photo + signature uploads from any phone. Stamped, timestamped, linked to the order.

07

Invoice match

Three-way PO ↔ docket ↔ invoice reconciliation with line-level discrepancy flags.

08

Spend reports

By supplier, job, period. Export to CSV. Push approved values to your accounts tool.

09

Role-based access

Site managers, buyers, accounts, and admins each see what they need — nothing they don't.

Before Intendant, we were copying delivery dockets into a spreadsheet by hand. Now every line on every invoice has a record against it — and our quarter-end is two days shorter.

See it with your suppliers.

A 30-minute walkthrough with your actual price list. No slide decks.
