Automatic tender matching eliminates manual searching — once your profile is qualified, the platform matches you to relevant tenders from energy and utility buyers without requiring you to monitor multiple sources.
E-procurement for suppliers in energy & utilities
For suppliers in energy & utilities: find relevant tenders, apply with one profile and track your application status in real time.
The country’s largest companies trust us with their procurement
One profile. Every tender. Full visibility — built for energy and utility suppliers.
Supplying to energy and utility companies means operating in an environment where continuity of service is non-negotiable. Buyers in this sector run large-scale infrastructure projects, maintain long-running framework agreements and carry regulatory reporting obligations — and their procurement timelines directly affect service quality. As a supplier, that pressure lands on you too: you need to hear about the right tenders before the window closes, submit a credible bid without rebuilding your documentation from scratch each time, and know where your application stands without chasing anyone. Procure.az is an e-sourcing and tendering platform built by Smart Solutions Group that covers the full procurement lifecycle — from supplier identification through to contract awarding — within a single digital system. It is used by large Azerbaijani enterprises including the SOCAR group, Azəriqaz and the PASHA group, which means the tenders that matter most to energy and utility suppliers are already active on the platform. A single supplier profile gives you access to every tender published there, pre-qualification is automated rather than handled document by document, and your application status is visible to you in real time at every stage of the process. The platform is built on a modular architecture that is configured to each buying organisation's own procurement process, so it accommodates the varied structures — framework agreements, multi-round sourcing events, real-time auctions — that are common across the energy and utilities sector. Every bid is system-recorded, selection criteria are applied uniformly to all participants, and every question or clarification is logged in a single tender chat that remains auditable after award. That combination of automation, transparency and auditability is precisely what suppliers need when competing for contracts that carry regulatory scrutiny and long-term operational consequences. From first registration through to digitally generated contracts with transparent change logs, Procure.az removes the manual friction that slows down business development teams and replaces it with a consistent, rules-based environment where suppliers compete on equal terms.
What changes for your business development team
A single supplier profile gives access to all tenders on the platform, so you register and complete pre-qualification once, then bid repeatedly across different buying organisations without rebuilding your credentials each time.
Documents are uploaded online and application status is tracked in real time through your supplier dashboard, removing the need to contact buyers directly or wait on email updates that may not arrive.
Every offer is system-recorded and selection criteria are applied uniformly to all participants, ensuring you compete on the same terms as every other bidder regardless of your size or prior relationship with the buyer.
All questions and clarifications are logged in a single tender chat that is visible to all participants equally and remains auditable after award, giving you a clear and verifiable record of the rules that governed each competition.
Submission is entirely online — no printing, couriers or manual paperwork — and the platform auto-generates contracts from award data, tracks milestones and sends expiry alerts, reducing administrative burden at both the bidding and post-award stages.
Platform features that matter to energy and utility suppliers
Automated pre-qualification
Pre-qualification is automated rather than handled document by document. You complete a fully online, simplified process once, and the platform matches your qualified profile automatically to each specific tender that fits your scope — including long-running framework agreements common in the energy sector.
Real-time application tracking
Suppliers upload documents online and track application status in real time. You always know where your submission stands in the evaluation process, without needing to contact the buyer directly.
Uniform, auditable selection
Every bid is system-recorded and all participants work to the same rules and the same information. Selection criteria are applied uniformly, which matters in a sector where procurement decisions carry regulatory scrutiny.
Single tender chat for clarifications
All questions and clarifications are logged in a single tender chat. You get prompt answers, you see the same information as every other participant, and the clarification record is auditable after award — important when contracts relate to critical infrastructure.
Online bidding and auction formats
A real-time auction module supports multiple auction formats, ensuring transparent, competitive bidding. Submission is entirely online — no printing, couriers or manual paperwork — which reduces the cost and effort of taking part in each round.
Digital contracts with change logs
The platform auto-generates contracts from award data, tracks contract milestones and sends expiry alerts. Suppliers get a single signed source of truth with transparent change logs, supporting compliance in a regulated operating environment.

Questions suppliers in energy and utilities ask
Do I need to register separately for each buying organisation on the platform?
No. One supplier profile gives you access to all tenders on the platform. Once your pre-qualification is complete, the system automatically matches your profile to relevant tenders across all buying organisations present, including those in the energy and utilities sector such as the SOCAR group and Azəriqaz.
How do I know the selection process is fair and that criteria are not changed mid-tender?
Every offer is system-recorded and selection criteria are applied uniformly to all participants. All clarifications are logged in a single tender chat that is auditable after award, so the basis on which any decision was made remains permanently on record and can be reviewed if needed.
We supply under long-running framework agreements. Does the platform support that type of procurement?
Yes. The platform covers the full procurement lifecycle from supplier identification through to contract awarding, and its modular architecture is configured to each buying organisation's own process — which includes the framework agreement structures that are common in energy and utility procurement.
What support is available if we encounter a technical issue during a live tender?
Procure.az provides 8/5 in-house customer care and support. Because the support team is in-house rather than outsourced, they have direct working knowledge of the platform and can provide informed assistance during active tender periods when timing is critical.
How are contracts managed after award, and how do we stay on top of milestones and renewals?
The platform auto-generates contracts from award data, tracks contract milestones and sends expiry alerts automatically. As a supplier you receive a single signed source of truth with transparent change logs, which supports your own internal compliance and reporting obligations — particularly relevant in a regulated sector where contract documentation may be subject to audit.
We are a smaller supplier. Is the pre-qualification process practical for a business without a large tendering team?
The pre-qualification process is fully online and simplified by design, with documents uploaded digitally and application status tracked in real time. Because pre-qualification is automated rather than handled document by document, the process does not require a dedicated tendering team to manage back-and-forth correspondence with buyers — you complete it once and the platform handles the matching from that point forward.
