SMART TEAM: The Official App for the Purchasing Association of East Java (PAS JATIM)
SMART TEAM is the official, integrated mobile application designed exclusively for the members of the Purchasing Association of East Java (PAS JATIM). It serves as a central hub for members to connect with a trusted network of suppliers, discover products, manage procurement processes, and stay informed about community activities. This application is the buyer-facing counterpart to the SMART VENDOR system, creating a seamless and transparent B2B ecosystem.
Key Features:
Powerful Discovery Engine: The app's homepage greets users with a powerful search bar to find products, vendors, or categories with ease. Members can dive into the comprehensive "Product Catalog" to explore items from all registered vendors, complete with advanced filtering and sorting options. The "Popular Vendors Near You" feature uses location data to suggest nearby suppliers, while the "List Vendor" directory allows for a thorough search based on category, location, and member tier (e.g., GOLD Tier).
Streamlined Procurement & Promotions: SMART TEAM simplifies the procurement process. Users can send a Request for Quotation (RFQ) directly from a product listing or a vendor's profile. All sent RFQs can be tracked in the dedicated "My RFQ" tab, which displays the real-time status of each request, such as "Waiting for Reply", "Responded", or "Completed". Additionally, the homepage features a dynamic promo carousel, showcasing real-time special offers from vendors that are synced directly from the SMART VENDOR platform.
In-Depth Vendor Information: Before making a decision, members can access detailed vendor profile pages. These pages provide crucial performance statistics, including average response time, the number of RFQs answered, and customer ratings. Members can also see a list of key contact persons (PICs) at the vendor company, complete with their job titles and online status, ensuring they can connect with the right person. All this data is synchronized in real-time with the vendor's SMART VENDOR app, guaranteeing that the information is always up-to-date.
Community and Information Hub: The app serves as the primary information channel for the PAS JATIM community. The "Berita" (News) section delivers official announcements, event agendas, educational articles, and member highlights. The "About the Organization" page provides details on PAS JATIM's history, vision, mission, and leadership structure. Members can also connect with each other through the "Member List" and the integrated "Group Chat" feature.
Personalized Member Account (Profile): The "Profile" tab is the user's personal space. Here, members can view their digital membership card, check their membership and payment status ("Active Cash"), and manage personal details. The settings menu offers extensive customization for security and notification settings for RFQs, promotions, and other activities.
In summary, the SMART TEAM app is an indispensable tool that empowers PAS JATIM members by simplifying discovery, streamlining transactions, and fostering a well-informed and connected professional community.
