Manual procurement processes are draining your practice’s profitability
Every dollar spent on manual ordering, paper trails, and vendor coordination is equal to three dollars of production. These inefficiencies compound daily.
Common inefficiencies for dental practices
Manual ordering processes consume hours weekly through catalog searches and phone calls
Multiple suppliers means multiple logins which creates workflow confusion
Approval bottlenecks delay orders when requests get lost in email chains
Disconnected systems force duplicate data entry and create billing discrepancies
Solution
How Method eliminates process friction:
Scan-to-cart ordering
Barcode scanning instantly adds products without manual searching. You can restock from anywhere in the practice using a tablet and scanner.
Automated approval workflows
Easily customize approval workflows to your team. Rules can be assigned by user or group, using smart criteria like spend thresholds, available budget, formulary compliance, and total order value that escalate when necessary.
Unified multi-supplier platform
One interface for ordering from all suppliers with consolidated tracking, payments, and communication. No more portal juggling or spending time training staff on procedures.
Digital document management
Centralized storage with automated three-way matching between orders, receipts, and invoices. Instant access to historical data.

“My staff loves Method because it's an easy one-stop-shop for ordering, as opposed to having to go to five or ten different websites and order different things. They can just go to Method, find the products, place the order, and move on with their day.”
