B2B Procurement
Project Background
Project Background
BPM (Best Price Maintenance) is a B2B procurement platform that connects IT system owners with maintenance providers through a transparent, auction-based workflow. It digitises the entire procurement lifecycle, from asset registration and tendering to bidding and contract execution, using a standardised Best Price Maintenance evaluation model for fair supplier scoring.

Project Challenges
- Three-tier marketplace: Owners, providers, and admins share workflows with strict data separation and role-based access.
- Auction lifecycle: Guarded state transitions (draft, active, closed, awarded) and automated scheduling had to run without race conditions.
- BMP scoring: A configurable, auditable evaluation engine was needed for standardised provider scoring.
- Internationalisation: A fully bilingual (English and German) interface and a queued notification pipeline, aligned with GDPR.

Strategy and Solutions

- Owner portal: Asset registration, auction publishing, bid management, and contract execution from a dedicated dashboard.
- Provider portal: Auction discovery, ranked bid submission, bid tracking, profile and service management, and BMP score visibility.
- Admin portal: User and auction moderation, contract lifecycle oversight, BMP evaluations, and system configuration.
- Core platform: Auction engine, automated contract generation, BMP evaluation module, in-app messaging, asynchronous email notifications, a secure document repository, and an audit trail.
Results & Impact
- Replaced manual RFQs with a fully auditable auction process
- Standardised BMP scoring ensures fair, defensible supplier selection
- A bilingual UI, GDPR compliance, and detailed audit logs support enterprise governance
- A modern React, NestJS, and Redis architecture delivers reliability and scalability
