September 17, 2001—TradeMC and Bruckner Supply Company have integrated their procurement services and solutions to jointly deliver maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) supplies and services via the Internet to TradeMC’s customers. The partnership will offer customers total indirect materials and service procurement, fulfillment, and supply chain management solutions.
TradeMC operates an Internet-accessible procurement system based on the Atlas Commerce Metaprise platform. TradeMC’s customers can process requests for information (RFIs), requests for quotation (RFQs), and purchase orders, conduct auctions, exchange design information (including online revisions), and otherwise collaborate with more than 100 world-class suppliers of engineered capital goods such as valves, pumps, transformers, control systems, and mechanical equipment. TradeMC says that their systems and supplier relationships reduce the cost of procurement administration, reduce the cost of capital goods and MRO goods and services, and shorten delivery schedules.
