Our Procurement Protocol
- 1
Requirement Specification
We work with you to define exact specifications: dimensions, standards (KEBS, ISO, SANS), quantities, delivery timeline, and budget.

Supplier Shortlisting
We identify 3–5 verified suppliers. For critical items, we conduct factory audits (in-person or via video) and request sample inspections.
- 3
Quotation & Negotiation
We negotiate price, Incoterms, payment terms, and delivery schedule. You receive a comparison matrix.

Quality Verification
Pre-shipment inspection at origin. For construction materials: KEBS certification check. For electrical: compliance with Kenya's electrical standards.

Shipping & Logistics
We coordinate freight (sea, air, road). Track in transit. Manage insurance.
- 6
Customs & Delivery
Full clearance. Delivery to your site or warehouse. Documentation handover.
Quality Assurance
Every item that enters our supply chain is verified against:
- KEBS (Kenya Bureau of Standards) — mandatory for construction materials, electrical, food
- ISO — where applicable (ISO 9001 for process, ISO 14001 for environmental)
- Project specifications — your approved BoQ, drawings, or technical data sheet
No item is accepted without a quality certificate and, where required, a KEBS test report.
