Spend across a single or multiple facilities is leveraged exactly as our full on-site programs, relying on our robust digital MRO procurement solutions expertise. We can establish transactional links with your existing technology stack and support eCommerce through custom catalogs and pricing. The benefit becomes a “one-stop shop” where your spend and savings is managed in a low-touch (or no-touch) transactional environment. Turtle can manage your MRO volume no matter the scope, provide detailed analytics, and contribute to your long-term success.
