FrontM and Bulugo report that they have concluded a partnership agreement to support digital procurement of bunker fuel and lubricants by crews onboard their vessels by linking the two firms’ respective technologies.
The new procurement integration will be freely available to all existing global customers of FrontM and Bulugo, allowing users to connect with new suppliers, seek quotes, assess responses, negotiate price, and make decisions on fuel and lubricant offers.
“As more shipping companies and operators leverage digital and platform technologies to obtain and automate their purchasing and workforce automation processes, we believe the alliance with Bulugo enables our clients to better align their purchasing requirements during their online fuel procurement process,” said Lisa Moore, Chief Commercial Officer, FrontM.
“The combination of FrontM’s marketplace approach to service consumption and Bulugo’s fuel quoting and procurement delivery platform offers our partners and their customers a transformative shopping experience by reducing procurement lead times and providing time-critical quotes that match them to the best carrier.”
