Description
Procurement for a hospital group. We buy from about 700 suppliers and our category managers spend a lot of their week reconciling quotes that arrive as PDFs in inconsistent formats, then chasing the supplier because a line item is ambiguous. We want quote normalisation: read the PDF, map line items to our catalogue codes, flag anything it cannot map confidently, and produce a comparable table across the suppliers who quoted. The comparison is the output — the decision stays with the category manager. Clinical consumables have equivalence rules that are not obvious from the product name, and getting those wrong has patient-safety consequences. Anything in that category should map conservatively and flag rather than guess.
Responsibilities
- Extract line items from supplier quote PDFs across the formats our top suppliers use
- Map to catalogue codes with confidence, flagging low-confidence mappings for review
- Apply conservative handling for clinical consumables, flagging rather than inferring equivalence
- Produce a normalised comparison table across all quotes for a requirement
- Track mapping corrections so the catalogue mapping improves over time
Deliverables
- Quote extraction and catalogue mapping pipeline
- Comparison table output integrated with our procurement system
- Clinical consumables handling rules, signed off by clinical procurement
- Correction tracking and mapping improvement report
