Pre-Construction Planning for Cost Certainty
Before ground is broken, decisions made during pre-construction set the tone for everything that follows. Solid planning during this phase is essential to ensure budget reliability, schedule accuracy, and overall project success.
ProcureWare by Contruent: Construction Procurement Software

Construction Execution & Operational Procurement
Contruent Procurement: Built for Capital Projects
Managing project procurement during execution requires more than what traditional ERP systems offer. Contruent Procurement, part of Contruent Enterprise, bridges that gap with purpose-built tools designed for capital project delivery. Teams can:
- Manage requisitions, bid packages, and purchase orders
- Schedule procurement and track shipment progress
- Evaluate suppliers, track performance and record payments
- Link engineering data directly to procurement workflows
With full visibility into cost commitments and procurement activities, organizations reduce the risk of late deliveries, contract misalignments and scope changes.
Corporate procurement systems are very rarely built with functionality that allows users to see the details that project procurement needs– tracking materials and process equipment at the detailed level required for projects.
Construction Execution & Operations
Contruent Procurement
Procurement in the construction phase of a capital project is complex and high stakes. Yet, many organizations still rely on ERP systems built for routine business purchases, systems that fall short when applied to project-specific needs. When materials, equipment, and supplier performance directly impact schedule and cost, precision and visibility are non-negotiable.
Contruent Procurement equips capital project teams with tools built specifically to manage the intricacies of construction execution. Integrated with ProcureWare, it provides a seamless handoff from contract award into active procurement, giving users end-to-end control over requisitions, purchase orders, vendor activity, and material tracking. From tender to turnover, you can:
- Streamline the full procurement lifecycle in a centralized platform
- Eliminate fragmented workflows across engineering, procurement, and field operations
- Track and manage material deliveries and supplier performance in real time
Key Benefits:
- Build bid packages directly from requisitions and award POs with confidence
- Automate engineering requisitions and purchasing activities
- Monitor shipment progress and fabrication milestones against the project schedule
- Record and reconcile invoices and payments with full traceability
- Maintain supplier scorecards for ongoing evaluation and continuous improvement
