Supplier management

Keep the supplier picture connected.

See Supplier management in practice.

Follow a supplier cost change from its source records through venue review and into a clear next action.

Explore the supplier workflow

One supplier view, grounded in source records.

Retriever makes related supplier evidence easier to follow without replacing the supplier as the source of current commercial information.

Supplier records

Keep contact detail, payment terms and operational notes in one place.

Catalogue items

Connect supplier products, pack information and saved prices to the items the venue uses.

Spend and invoices

Read invoice history alongside the supplier and the inventory it supports.

Price review

Compare a proposed supplier cost with the current working cost before approving a change.

From evidence to action

From supplier evidence to a considered response.

A price or catalogue change becomes useful when its source and operational effect are visible together.

  1. Bring the records together

    Connect the supplier, its products and the invoices already held by the venue.

  2. See what changed

    Surface differences that deserve review rather than silently rewriting working data.

  3. Choose the response

    An owner or manager approves the update and decides whether another action is needed.

Human judgement stays

Supplier truth stays with the supplier.

Retriever helps the venue organise and interpret the information it holds. Current availability, pricing and terms still need supplier confirmation.

  • The source of a proposed cost change remains visible.
  • Catalogue and invoice information can be reviewed before it changes working costs.
  • Supplier relationships and negotiations remain with the venue.
  • Owners decide whether a change affects ordering, recipes or pricing.

Confirm current supplier information before relying on it for a purchase or commercial decision.
