See material status from anywhere.
Check invoices before paying.
Approve purchases from your phone.
Know what every site used.
One clear path for every purchase.
Step 1
Requisition
The site raises the request (indent). What, how much, and by when.
Step 2
Approval
The right person says yes. From the office, or from their phone.
Step 3
Quotation
Compare supplier quotes side by side. Pick the best one, on record.
What happens at the site, recorded at the site.
You stay in charge. Without being on site.
Approval Workflow
Set approval levels for PR, PO, GRN, and issue. Bigger amounts need bigger sign-offs. Nothing moves without the right yes.
Mobile Approvals
Approve from your phone, wherever you are. Sites don't wait for you to reach the office. Work moves. Control stays.
Purchase & Invoice Verification
Match the supplier's bill to the PO and the delivery. Pay only for what actually arrived. Then send it to Accounts, clean.
Material Database
Every material and item in one list. Names, units, and rates - standardized. No duplicate entries. No confusion.
What is material management software for construction?
It's software that tracks materials from request to usage - requisitions, approvals, purchase orders, deliveries (GRN), and issues to contractors. Everything is recorded as it happens, so you always know what was bought, what arrived, and where it went.
How does the purchase request workflow work?
The site raises a requisition, the right person approves it, quotes are compared, a purchase order goes to the supplier, and the delivery is recorded with a GRN. Five steps, all tracked - no purchase happens outside the system.
What is a GRN, and why does it matter?
A GRN (Goods Receipt Note) is the record made when material arrives - quantity checked, quality inspected, invoice attached. It matters because you should only pay for what actually reached your site. In Build Formula, the GRN report can also be shared with suppliers on WhatsApp or email.
Can I approve purchase orders from my phone?
Yes. Purchase requests, POs, GRNs, and material issues can all be approved from the mobile app. Your sites keep moving even when you're traveling.
How does invoice verification stop overpayment?
Before a supplier's bill goes to your Accounts team, Build Formula matches it against the purchase order and the GRN. If the bill says 100 bags and the site received 90, you'll know before you pay - not after.
Can contractors take material without approval?
No. Material is issued only after approval, and every issue is recorded against the contractor and the project. Stock updates automatically, so the store register and reality always match.
Does Build Formula's material management work outside India?
Yes. Real estate teams across India use Build Formula, and we’re expanding across the USA, Canada, and Africa. Every plan includes onboarding, training, and ongoing support.
