Procurement & Order Management - Wave Facility Management

The Wave team is highly automated with respect to procurement, order management and tracking. Initial layouts are created by the design professionals using AutoCAD software, which then generates furniture specifications. Once a purchase order is received, the order is then electronically transmitted to the manufacturer. Ship dates are verified upon receipt of the acknowledgement. Transmissions, retrieval of orders and acknowledgments can occur 24 hours-a-day, not just during business hours. Because order entry is online, it is entered once instead of being handwritten and entered in the system at a later date. This significantly reduces the chance of order error. The software also prompts the user to input all required data, which reduces the chance of missing data.

Orders are entered on a per floor basis so that the scheduling of truck delivery dates and times are carefully coordinated with the installation start date and elevator / hoist reservation.
