SCMS Portal: Streamlining Procurement and Logistics Processes

The SCMS portal is a centralized platform designed to enhance efficiency in procurement, logistics, and inventory management across departments. This presentation outlines the key processes facilitated by the portal, including PR creation, logistic requests, and GRN documentation. By standardizing workflows, the portal ensures proper documentation, approvals, and tracking, ultimately improving operational transparency and accountability.

Purpose of the SCMS Portal

• Ensures proper documentation for all procurement and logistics activities
• Standardizes processes across departments for consistency and compliance
• Facilitates seamless communication between HODs and the SCM department
• Tracks requests from initiation to completion for better accountability

Logistic Request Form: Usage and Process
