What it is.

A dedicated procurement coordinator handles all your material sourcing, equipment rentals, and vendor management. They research pricing, compare suppliers, prepare purchase orders, coordinate deliveries, and build material lists from your plans — all running through JSV.

Contractors burn hours every week calling suppliers, comparing prices, and chasing deliveries. We handle the legwork so you get the right materials at the right price, on site when you need them. Every cost is tracked in JSV's job costing module and synced to QuickBooks.
