Purchasing

The Features and Options Team manages the data for the options that are offered by each City. The team handles pricing and marketing text and updates and improves the catalog of options. The Features and Options Team works with each city to tailor their catalog to their specific market while staying within the HST programs. The team helps keep pricing and options fresh by re-generating options periodically. And, when it comes time to make a change, we coordinate that effort so that there is a smooth transition.

Our diligent task checking and report running during our Starts Process ensures the efficient and consistent issuing of accurate purchase orders to our Vendor Partners.

Similarly, having up to date data on the Insurance status of our vendors assures the safety of both our Team Members but of our Vendor Partners on the job sites. Ensuring we have quality vendors on our job sites keeps our costs low and gives management quick information for risk management monitoring.
