01
DEFINE

The requirement sets the direction.

Product, grade, format, quantity, destination and timing. An exact buying brief gives the sourcing work a clear purpose.

  • Product identity and specification
  • Quantity and delivery requirements
  • Timing and commercial objectives
02
SOURCE

Assess what the market can deliver.

We review suitable supply against the brief, taking origin, availability, supplier information and product details into account.

  • Suitable origins and counterparties
  • Availability and product detail
  • Commercial position
03
STRUCTURE

Put the terms in a workable order.

Pricing, delivery basis, payment arrangements, documentation and responsibilities need to fit the transaction before goods move.

  • Price basis and Incoterm
  • Payment and release conditions
  • Documents and responsibilities
04
COORDINATE

Follow the agreed execution.

Consolidation, collection or shipping is coordinated with the relevant counterparties according to the agreed terms.

  • Packing and consolidation
  • Collection or shipment coordination
  • Agreed documentation flow
PAYMENT & RESPONSIBILITY

AGREED TERMS.
CLEAR CONDITIONS.

Payment security and release conditions are agreed for the particular transaction.
