Introduction to service provider remits

What are service provider remits and how do they function within Flow360

What do the remits mean?

Remits describe:

    • the geographical area/s in which the sevice provider will undertake work for the client

    • the types of work that the sevice provider will undertake for the client

    • the cost range of work that the sevice provider will undertake for the client

    • costplus and flexi-contract arrangements between client and service provider

Why and where are they important?

Remits come into play:

    • when a manager creates a new set of tender enquiries or works enquiries: - Flow360 will ensure that only those service providers that have the correct remits (for each client that has work included in the enquiry) will be included in the draft enquiries list.

    • when a manager issues a new direct order: - Flow360 will ensure that only those service providers that have the correct remits (for each client that has work included in the order) will be included in the draft orders list.

Once remits are set up there is no need for managers to undertake the tedious task of splitting a large number of works items into separate enquiries or orders for each service provider or contractor according to the services they supply - Flow360 does this for you and simply presents you with a draft list of enquiries or orders, already sorted and allocated, for you to confirm and send.

Time saving and efficiency gaining!
