Buying friction

Buyers rarely get the best market price

Because they are not aware of where it is worth buying what from — so they cannot compare markets or use joint purchasing.

How it usually works
  • Familiar suppliers
    Buying from whoever you have always bought from
  • Local offer price
    Accepting an offer with no view of other markets
  • No comparison
    No clarity on where the same product is worth buying
  • Joint purchasing unused
    Volume advantage is left on the table when demand is not pooled
How Merqone works
  • One buyer workspace
    Projects & product parts, RFQs, offers and orders in one place
  • Clear next steps
    Recommendations that help you decide — not another dashboard
  • International supplier network
    Reach trusted suppliers across borders — not only in your home market
  • Cross-border price clarity
    Compare the same materials across countries, prices and logistics

Merqone’s solution

Same materials. Prices that swing by tens of percent by country.

Identical construction and industrial products can cost tens of percent more or less depending on the country. Merqone gives you unprecedented reach into an international procurement network — so cross-border sourcing becomes a practical option, not a special project.

Compare across markets

See how the same materials price in different countries — and choose the path that fits delivery, terms and total cost.

Projects & product parts

Source complete product assemblies — for example steel frames — in Projects, Product Parts & Subcontracts, alongside line-item RFQs for catalog materials.

Who Merqone serves

Built for construction and industry

Merqone customers include machine shops, steel wholesalers and product manufacturers — buyers and sellers who move materials and product parts every day.

  • Machine shops
  • Steel wholesalers
  • Product manufacturers

How it works

From material need to confirmed order

Three steps. MIE shows the advantage along the way — where to buy, and when joint purchasing pays off.

MIE

Merqone Intelligence Engine

MIE is Merqone’s procurement intelligence. It compares retail price, local offer price and the Merqone price — and shows the buyer where savings come from: lower market prices and joint purchasing. MIE does not buy for you. It makes the advantage visible and shows the best sellers for your purchase.

  1. 01

    Create the request for quote — or a product-part project

    Start from catalog lines, or open Projects, Product Parts & Subcontracts for assemblies or subcontracts such as steel frames. Quantities, delivery and terms stay structured from the first request.

  2. 02

    MIE shows markets and options

    See the local offer price and the Merqone advantage instantly. Collect offers from the network or pool compatible demand — MIE helps you choose the path and the best sellers.

  3. 03

    Award, order, confirm

    Choose the best path, create the order and confirm both buyer and supplier in the same workspace.

Who Merqone is for

Built for construction and industry — with cross-border advantage

Merqone is a procurement operating system for construction and industrial materials: buyers reach a wider supplier network, decide faster, and keep the commercial trail intact.

01

International reach that changes the price conversation

When identical materials differ by tens of percent by country, a wider network is not a nice-to-have — it is leverage for machine shops, wholesalers and manufacturers alike.

02

Pooling with real commercial leverage

Combine compatible demand into one tender. Each buyer keeps their own order and invoice — while volume improves the deal.

03

Decisions you can stand behind

Compare offers on price, logistics and terms before you award. Recommendations explain the path — they do not hide it.
