Business Confirmation Application – A Digital Solution for Formal Business Agreement Confirmation Between Organizations and Suppliers

In procurement operations and supplier relationship management, ensuring that business information is accurately aligned between both parties is a critical step that directly impacts production accuracy, delivery performance, and overall project success. Inaccurate information or outdated documentation can lead to increased costs, delays, and operational inefficiencies.

The Business Confirmation Application is a platform developed to streamline and manage the entire business confirmation process between organizations and suppliers. From document creation and approval workflows to supplier verification, signature collection, document validation, and final procurement confirmation, every step is managed through a secure, transparent, and fully traceable digital platform.

What is Business Confirmation?

Business Confirmation is a process used to validate and confirm business-related information between an organization and its supplier after the quotation comparison and supplier selection process has been completed. Its primary objective is to ensure that both parties acknowledge and agree on all critical business information before actual production or business execution begins.

The Business Confirmation system serves as a centralized platform that gathers approved information from the Cost Comparison process and generates official Business Confirmation documents. These documents are then reviewed, acknowledged, and formally confirmed by the supplier.

With a structured workflow process, every activity—from request submission and approval to document signing and verification—is recorded within the system, providing complete visibility and traceability throughout the entire process.

What Can Business Confirmation Do?

The Business Confirmation Application is designed to support real-world procurement and supplier management processes through the following key capabilities:

1. Seamless Integration with Cost Comparison

The system allows users to select only those quotations that have already been approved through the Cost Comparison process and designated as the Final Selection.

Multiple items can be selected in a single Business Confirmation request, provided that all selected quotations belong to the same supplier. This ensures consistency and accuracy throughout the business confirmation process.

2. Comprehensive Business Information Management

The application supports the collection and management of essential business information, including:

  • Model Life – Product production lifecycle duration
  • SOP (Start of Production) – Official production start date
  • Tooling Condition – Indicates whether tooling requirements apply
  • Tooling Information – Detailed tooling specifications, conditions, and related requirements
  • Supporting Document Attachments – Additional files and references

All information is consolidated into a standardized format for approval and supplier confirmation purposes.

3. Multi-Level Approval Workflow

The system supports a flexible approval workflow structure consisting of:

  • Checker 1
  • Checker 2
  • Approver

Once the Requester submits the request, the system automatically generates a Business Confirmation document, allowing reviewers and approvers to verify information immediately.

4. Supplier Confirmation Process

After final approval, the information is sent directly to the supplier for review and acknowledgment.

Suppliers cannot modify any approved information, ensuring that both parties are referencing the same validated data.

The system then assigns ownership responsibilities and generates an official Business Confirmation document for authorized supplier representatives to review and sign.

5. QR Code-Based Document Verification

After the supplier signs the document, the signed copy can be uploaded back into the system.

The application automatically verifies the document using a QR Code to confirm that it is the latest approved version generated by the system. This significantly reduces the risk of using outdated, incorrect, or unauthorized documents.

6. Final Buyer Verification

Once the supplier submits the signed document, the Buyer can perform a final review to ensure that all required information and documentation are complete and accurate.

This final validation step guarantees compliance with organizational standards, procurement policies, and approval requirements before closing the process.
