Case Study: Kew Maintenance achieves time and cost savings by eliminating duplicate equipment purchases with ProcurementExpress.com

Everyday Dilemmas From a Construction Point of View

Kew Maintenance is a South African construction company specialising in vegetation control and SANRAL-appointed road maintenance across eight projects. They struggled with poor asset visibility, duplicated equipment purchases, fragmented communication, and slow approval of larger requisitions because busy directors were often unavailable. To address these issues they explored the Procurementexpress.com app, an automated purchase order solution.

Procurementexpress.com delivered a mobile PO system that gives real-time visibility of tools by site, enforces three-quote procurement discipline, and provides on-the-go financial updates and approval workflows. The vendor’s solution helped Kew Maintenance reallocate equipment between sites instead of repurchasing, sped up approvals, tightened budget control and reduced wasted spend—freeing managers’ time and lowering procurement costs.
