What I can take off your list

The supplier admin. Handled.

Use your monthly allowance across the work you need. SBS is not limited to electrical materials or wholesalers.

01

Quotations & supplier options

Send the requirement. I gather quotations and availability from the appropriate suppliers.

  • Materials and project pricing
  • Clear comparison of price, availability and supplier options
  • Proper project quotations from supplier contacts for substantial jobs
02

Orders & phased call-offs

Once you have chosen the route and given written authority, I coordinate the order.

  • Routine orders within your agreed authority
  • Quote-specific approval for substantial purchases
  • Phased call-offs against approved project quotations
03

Delivery coordination

Keep materials moving without spending your day on the phone chasing them.

  • Arrange delivery dates and agreed destinations
  • Coordinate call-offs with your job programme
  • Chase supplier updates and keep you informed
04

Returns, refunds & credits

I handle the supplier correspondence and paperwork needed to progress a return.

  • Arrange returns using invoice, order or job references
  • Request and chase refunds or supplier credits
  • Goods stay with you until the supplier collects or you return them
05

Supplier administration

The calls, emails and follow-ups around a job still need doing. I take care of them.

  • Supplier correspondence and follow-ups
  • Chase a current discrepancy you have identified
  • Maintain the quotation, approval and procurement trail
06

More than materials

If your business or job needs a legitimate quotation, I can approach the relevant provider.

  • Plant and equipment hire
  • Skips and other site services
  • Specialist suppliers and job-related services

You buy the support. You keep the decisions.

You choose suppliers, provide the specification and approve substantial purchases. You pay suppliers directly; refunds and credits go directly back to you or your supplier account. SBS does not handle your money or take physical possession of returned goods.

Clear boundaries

Built for organised jobs.

SBS works best when requirements are shared ahead of time. Urgent requests can be helped where practical, subject to supplier availability.

A last-minute request for multiple competitive quotes and guaranteed next-morning delivery is outside the normal service promise.

SBS provides procurement and supplier administration. It does not provide accounting, bookkeeping, retrospective annual invoice reconciliation or technical specification advice.

Your written specifications remain your responsibility. I am responsible for accurately carrying out the instructions you give me.
