Inventory & Price Book
Procurement platform
Run purchase orders, approvals, and receiving in one workflow instead of texts and paper.
Overview
Buying parts today means scattered texts, verbal approvals, and receipts that never make it back to the job. Thorbis is building a procurement workflow that turns a parts need into a purchase order, routes it for approval, and tracks what actually showed up. You'll know what you ordered, who signed off, and what's still owed to you on every job.
What we're building
Buying parts today is scattered texts, verbal approvals, and receipts that never make it back to the job. Nobody is sure what was ordered, who signed off, or what actually showed up, and the cost of those parts often never lands against the job that used them.
Thorbis is building a procurement workflow that turns a parts need into a purchase order, routes it through approval rules before it is sent, and tracks what gets received. You see outstanding orders and backorders in one view, flag short or wrong shipments, and tie received materials back to job costs. It is built for shops that have outgrown buying parts on a group text and need real control over what they order and spend.
