Step 1 - Tell us what you want

If you know exactly what you need – great. If not, we’re happy to offer recommendations and help you scope your request.

Step 2 - We help you select the best supplier for your requirements

We can quickly gather multiple quotes from different suppliers on your behalf. You’ll get a clear, online quote to review.

If your requirements are complex or you want to ensure the best value for money, we can run a mini-competition tailored to your specific needs. 

Step 3 - Sign and raise a Purchase Order

Once you’re happy with the quote or outcome of the competition, let us know. You then raise a Purchase Order and confirm it with us.

Step 4 - The supplier delivers

Your chosen supplier provides the goods or services in line with the agreed specifications and pricing. Delivery dates are confirmed in advance, and installation or setup (where required) is carried out as planned.

Step 5 - Invoicing

We send you an invoice referencing your Purchase Order. Once you confirm you’re happy with what’s been delivered, you complete payment.

The rule of 3!

There are three simple routes you can take when using Everything ICT:

Multiple Quotes

Need to meet internal procurement requirements? We’ll source multiple quotes on your behalf, quickly and staying fully compliant.

Mini-Competition

Want to run a mini-competition between suppliers? We can handle the process for you, ensuring you get the best fit and value.

Direct Award

In certain circumstances you may be able to award a contract to a supplier without needing a quoting or competition process. Talk to our team to check whether your circumstances qualify.

Whichever route you choose, your contract is with us, not the supplier. That means if something goes wrong, it’s our responsibility to put it right. That’s one of the key benefits of using Everything ICT.
