A single digital system covers the full procurement lifecycle — from supplier identification through to contract awarding — removing the need to stitch together separate, disconnected tools for each stage and eliminating the data gaps that arise between them.
A local alternative to foreign e-procurement suites
A local alternative to foreign e-procurement suites: see how Procure.az compares — one digital system for the whole procurement cycle.

One digital system for the entire procurement lifecycle
Many organisations in Azerbaijan manage procurement through a combination of spreadsheets, email threads, and the purchasing modules of foreign enterprise systems — tools that were not designed around local business practice, the regulatory context, or the realities of the Azerbaijani market. Procure.az is an e-sourcing and tendering platform built by Smart Solutions Group specifically to close that gap. It unifies the procurement lifecycle from supplier identification through to contract awarding inside a single digital system, replacing fragmented manual administration with automated workflows and a permanent digital archive. Because every offer is system-recorded and selection criteria are applied uniformly across all participants, the process is both auditable and defensible at every stage.
Why organisations move to a purpose-built local platform
Fully automated pre-qualification and sourcing workflows cut sourcing cycle time by 40%, freeing procurement professionals from repetitive administrative tasks and allowing them to focus on higher-value commercial decisions.
Every offer is system-recorded and selection criteria are applied uniformly to all participants, producing a complete, tamper-evident audit trail that supports fair competition and stands up to internal or external review.
A modular architecture lets each buying organisation configure the platform to its own procurement process and rules, rather than restructuring internal workflows to fit a generic foreign system built for a different market.
Every stage of the process is digital and transparent, giving management and compliance teams real-time visibility into sourcing events without relying on status updates chased by email or manually compiled reports.
In-house customer care is available 8/5, provided by a team that understands the local procurement environment and has direct knowledge of the product — not a generic offshore help desk.
Platform capabilities at a glance
End-to-end sourcing in one place
From supplier identification through to contract awarding, every step of the procurement lifecycle runs inside a single digital system — no handoffs between disconnected tools.
Automated pre-qualification
Supplier pre-qualification is fully automated, ensuring consistent evaluation criteria are applied before any sourcing event begins and reducing the administrative burden on procurement teams.
Uniform offer evaluation
Because every offer is system-recorded, selection criteria are applied in the same way to every participant, supporting fair competition and clear audit trails.
Modular, configurable architecture
The platform is built in modules. A buying organisation activates the stages that match its own procurement process, rather than being forced into a one-size-fits-all workflow designed for a different market.
Digital archive replacing manual administration
Automated workflows and a digital archive replace paper-based and email-based administration, making historical procurement data searchable and readily available for reporting or audit.
Local support
An in-house customer care team provides 8/5 support, offering guidance that reflects the realities of procurement practice in Azerbaijan rather than generic help-desk responses.

- Receive and record offers digitally; the platform applies selection criteria uniformly across every submission, producing a transparent evaluation record.
- Award the contract within the same system, completing the procurement lifecycle from supplier identification to contract awarding without leaving the platform.
- Access the digital archive at any time for reporting, audit, or process improvement — every stage of every event is stored and searchable.
Common questions about Procure.az and switching from a foreign e-procurement system
We already have a purchasing module inside our enterprise system. Why would we need a separate platform?
Enterprise purchasing modules are designed to manage approved orders and process transactions, not to run competitive sourcing events. Procure.az covers the stages that typically sit before an entry is created in a downstream system — supplier identification, pre-qualification, tendering, and offer evaluation. The two tools serve fundamentally different parts of the procurement cycle and are complementary rather than overlapping.
How does the modular architecture work in practice?
The platform is structured so that a buying organisation can enable only the specific stages it requires — for example, automated pre-qualification alone, or a complete end-to-end sourcing workflow — without being required to use features that do not fit its process. Each configuration reflects the organisation's own procurement rules rather than a generic template, which means the platform adapts to the organisation, not the other way around.
How does Procure.az support fair and auditable procurement?
Every offer submitted through the system is recorded at the point of receipt, and selection criteria are applied uniformly to all participants without manual intervention. This produces a complete, tamper-evident record of how each evaluation decision was reached. That record is available for internal audit, management review, or compliance purposes at any time, without requiring additional data collection or reconstruction.
What level of support is available after go-live, and is it locally based?
Procure.az is supported by an in-house customer care team available eight hours a day, five days a week. Because the platform is built and maintained locally by Smart Solutions Group, the support team has direct knowledge of the product and a practical understanding of the procurement environment in Azerbaijan — which is meaningfully different from the generic responses provided by offshore help desks attached to foreign systems.
Which types of organisations are already using the platform, and what does that indicate about its suitability for complex requirements?
The platform is used by large Azerbaijani enterprises including the SOCAR group, the PASHA group, Kapital Bank, and Azəriqaz — organisations with high-volume, multi-category procurement requirements spread across multiple business units. Their adoption indicates that the platform is capable of handling the scale, process complexity, and governance requirements typical of major corporate and state-affiliated buyers operating in Azerbaijan.
