BOM-driven procurement.
Live from ForgeCAD. Auto-reorder from the machine.

ForgeProcure reads the live ForgeCAD BOM and generates draft POs automatically. Tooling reorders fire from real ForgeMachine wear data. Spend analytics track cost by vendor, category, and project. Draft POs export to your ERP for fulfilment — no manual part entry, no spreadsheet.

Why ForgeProcure is different

"ForgeProcure reads the live ForgeCAD BOM — it never asks you to enter a part list manually."

When a ForgeCAD assembly revision bumps, ForgeProcure sees the new BOM version within seconds via ForgeHub. Net-change analysis identifies what was added, removed, or quantity-changed. Draft purchase orders are generated from the delta — against your approved vendor list, supplier preferences, and current lead times.

"Auto-reorder is driven by real consumption data from ForgeMachine — not by guessed reorder points."

ForgeMachine reports tooling wear per job. When end mill EM-12 hits 85% wear, ForgeProcure checks stock: 1 on hand, minimum 2 required. It drafts a PO for 3 units against the preferred supplier at the contracted price — before the machine needs to stop. Reorder thresholds are set from historical consumption, not from a spreadsheet you maintain.

"Draft POs export to your ERP for fulfilment — ForgeProcure is the sourcing layer, not a replacement for your ERP."

ForgeProcure generates a fully-formed purchase order: line items, quantities, supplier, delivery address, cost center, project code. It exports via API to SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, or any ERP with a REST endpoint. The ERP handles approval workflow, payment, and receiving. ForgeProcure handles the sourcing intelligence the ERP does not have.

From design change to purchase order — automatically

ForgeProcure closes the loop between what engineering specifies, what the machine consumes, and what procurement needs to source.

1

Receive BOM

Automated

ForgeCAD publishes a BOM version to ForgeHub. ForgeProcure receives it, runs net-change analysis against the current approved BOM, and identifies what needs to be sourced.

2

Check Stock and Lead Times

Automated

For each changed line item, ForgeProcure checks current stock against minimum thresholds, queries supplier lead times from the pricing history database, and flags items at risk of schedule impact.

3

Select Suppliers

Automated

Approved vendor list and per-part supplier preferences determine the default supplier. ForgeProcure selects from approved vendors, uses the contracted price, and flags any item without a qualified supplier.

4

Draft PO

Automated

A fully-formed purchase order is generated: supplier, line items, quantities, unit prices, delivery dates, cost center, project code. Ready for engineer review before export.

5

Export to ERP

Manual

Engineer reviews and approves the draft PO. ForgeProcure exports to your ERP via API. The ERP handles approval workflow, payment, and goods receiving. ForgeProcure updates stock on receipt confirmation.

Every capability, in depth

Live BOM Sync from ForgeCAD

ForgeProcure receives BOM updates from ForgeCAD via ForgeHub. Net-change analysis runs automatically. Draft POs cover the delta — nothing is entered manually.

Approved Vendor List

Per-part supplier preferences, contracted unit prices, lead times, quality ratings, and ITAR/CMMC flags. Auto-selection picks the top approved vendor for every line item.

Auto-Reorder from Machine Wear

ForgeMachine reports tooling wear per job. When wear hits threshold, ForgeProcure checks stock, drafts a PO, and logs the cost to the job — before the machine stops.

Spend Analytics

Spend by vendor, category, project, and job. Price trends, lead time trends, cost-per-part tracking. Feeds ForgeOps job costing.

ERP Export

Draft POs export to SAP, Oracle Fusion, NetSuite, or any ERP with a REST endpoint. ForgeProcure is the sourcing layer. The ERP handles approval, payment, and receiving.

Integrations

Procurement that reads the CAD file.

ForgeProcure connects what engineering specifies to what operations consumes to what procurement needs to order. No manual part lists. No spreadsheet reorder tracking. No PO that contradicts the current BOM.
