Quotes on a like-for-like basis.
Unit, scope, transport, lead time and payment aligned before prices are compared.
Procurement/Negotiate with context, not from scratch
Procurement, with history, comparison and traceability
Compare quotes like for like, retrieve prices from past purchases and look up the history by supplier, line item or equipment. BluSea keeps a record of every price, condition and decision, so Procurement negotiates with context and never starts from scratch on a new project.
BluSea for procurement
The history, at hand.
Prices from past purchases by supplier, line item or equipment, each with the order it comes from.
Every decision, traced.
The price, conditions and reason for each purchase are recorded for the next one.
Every step of the purchase, made simpler
What needs buying, with its requirements.
From the tender documents, the design, the bill of quantities and the programme of works, BluSea works out what needs buying: quantities, specifications, standards, delivery dates and required conditions, each with its citation. It also flags contradictions between documents before quotes are requested.

How does it compare quotes that aren't alike?
It puts them on the same basis: same unit and same scope. Whatever each quote includes or leaves out (transport, unloading, lead time, payment, validity) is flagged and added, so the difference is visible rather than hidden.
Which quote formats does it read?
PDF, including scans, Word and Excel. Every price and condition is anchored to its page or cell.
Where does the price history come from?
From your orders, invoices, comparisons and quotes on previous projects. Every price carries the document it comes from.
Can I search by supplier, line item or equipment?
Yes. What was paid, on which project, on what terms and when, for a specific supplier, line item or piece of equipment.
Does it produce the comparison in Excel?
Yes, with live formulas. Every cell can be explained from the quote it comes from.
Does BluSea replace the procurement team?
No. BluSea compares, retrieves the history and keeps the record; your team negotiates and decides.
Are my documents secure?
Everything runs on Microsoft Azure, within the EU. Your team signs in with the company account, and your data is never used to train models.
