Aldar launches e-procurement portal
Move to help focus on strategic supply management, property developer says
Aldar Properties has announced the launch of an online e-procurement portal, which will enable it to automate routine procurement tasks and facilitate supplier on-boarding.
The Abu Dhabi-based property development, investment and management company said in a press statement that the portal – known as ‘BravoAdvantage’ – has been launched in partnership with strategic procurement company, Tejari. It will allow Aldar’s “procurement team to reallocate resources to focus on more strategic and valuable supply management activities”, the statement added.
“Aldar is a significant contributor to developing and reshaping the fabric of urban life in Abu Dhabi in line with the vision of the emirate. As such it is important that we continue to set new standards for our performance, which contributes in facilitating the suppliers’ registration and evaluation functions and contract operations,” said M. Nader Saleh Al Awlaqi, executive director of procurement at Aldar Properties.
The portal supports Aldar’s commitment to maintaining consistent and strategic engagement with its supplier community in order to enhance its registration process visibility, he added.
Richard Hogg, CEO at Tejari, said: “Forward thinking organisations such as Aldar Properties recognise the tremendous impact procurement can make on an organisation’s overall growth and profitability. By adopting a transformative approach to procurement, Aldar will be able to unlock procurement’s full power and drive excellence that will shape the direction of the organisation.”
Tejari provided end-user training and support to Aldar Properties for the adoption of the platform across the organisation.
