- New sources: Scout local markets like Bunder Street, Chennai, Parrys, Bangalore SP Road for better rates or unique items.
2. Procurement & Ordering
- BOQ execution: Convert the designer’s Bill of Quantities into actual purchase orders with exact specs - shade, size, brand, finish
- Material scheduling: Order items based on the site timeline. Tiles before the flooring starts, lights before the false ceiling closes

- Sample approval: Get samples of veneer, laminate, fabric, and stone approved by the designer/client before bulk order
