Frequently Asked Questions
Learn more about how Procure 101 can transform your procurement processes.
What is Procure 101?
Procure 101 is MOX's modern procurement toolkit for NZ Government. It provides plain-language templates, step-by-step workflows, and practical guides that make procurement faster, clearer, and easier to do right. Instead of reinventing the wheel for each procurement, teams can rely on this toolkit to keep processes consistent, compliant, and efficient — saving time while improving supplier outcomes.
Who can benefit from Procure 101?
Procure 101 is designed for both NZ Government agencies and their suppliers. Agencies benefit from faster, more consistent procurement cycles with ready-to-use documents. Suppliers benefit from clearer requirements, fewer re-writes, and fairer, more transparent processes. By reducing complexity and confusion, the toolkit helps both sides work together effectively and focus on value instead of paperwork.
How does Procure 101 work?
Procure 101 packages procurement best practices into a productised toolkit. It includes planning & market engagement templates, workflow guides, and powerful dashboards that agencies can adopt immediately. This means less time writing from scratch, more consistency across projects, and easier supplier participation. By embedding practitioner expertise into the tools, Procure 101 makes procurement faster and less risky for everyone involved.
Why was Procure 101 created?
Procure 101 was developed by MOX after years of experience delivering procurement across NZ. We saw agencies and suppliers struggling with complexity, inconsistent documents, and wasted time. This toolkit captures proven approaches in plain language and makes them available for everyone — reducing duplication and creating a more level playing field for suppliers.
Is Procure 101 only for government?
While Procure 101 is designed specifically with NZ Government procurement in mind, the tools and templates are relevant for a wide range of organisations. Many principles apply equally to councils, state-owned enterprises, and even private sector projects. The toolkit can be adapted wherever clarity, consistency, and compliance are important in procurement.
Is Procure 101 a replacement for SAP Ariba or Coupa?
For many NZ agencies, yes. Procure 101 focuses on planning, documentation, evaluation, and reporting using Microsoft 365—with faster adoption and a lower total cost than enterprise suites.
How quickly can we go live?
Most teams go live within about a week, including light configuration and training.
Does Procure 101 integrate with our Microsoft 365 tenancy?
Yes. Procure 101 is designed for Excel, Word, Forms, SharePoint, and Teams—keeping data within your tenancy and aligned with government IT standards.
How do you handle NZ government compliance?
Built-in templates and workflows reflect NZ government procurement rules and broader outcomes, with audit-ready documentation from day one.
