The main objective of EquipUp's procurement process is to maximize the value of investments on behalf of the owner. Procurement is made according to a process that ensures the safe delivery of goods and services at the right price, at the right time and the right quality. For this to go as planned, procurement must be considered during the early stages of projects by setting up a procurement plan (procurement strategy) and by selecting the tender form for individual items of the project from the start.
