Orders and Payments

Dear Supplier,

In 2021, we began the transition journey of our procurement and contracting platform, aiming to offer more agility, simplification, and improved relationships with suppliers.

Internally, we changed the way "shopping carts" are created in the requisition and approval processes, which involves the issuance of an average of 4,000 documents per month.

Additionally, we implemented a new catalog-based purchasing method for the acquisition of various materials, such as office supplies, electrical items, janitorial products, construction materials, furniture, appliances, hand and power tools, electronics, measuring instruments, chemicals, PPE/EPC, and laboratory items, as well as products for load handling, building maintenance, industrial repairs, and personal and environmental hygiene.

Regarding external interfaces, at the end of 2022, we migrated the invoicing, purchase order, and goods purchase transactions from the Petronect Portal to another platform, where an average of 89,000 fiscal documents were transacted per month, with the participation of 11,700 suppliers.

Throughout 2024, we focused on implementing and scaling the new platform for purchases under the bidding exemption limit based on value, but we were unable to achieve success. Therefore, we have decided to close the implementation project, keeping only what has already been implemented. As such, the procurement and contracting of goods and services for Petrobras will continue to be carried out through the Petronect Portal.

Our journey toward greater agility, simplification, and better relationships with suppliers on our procurement and contracting platform continues, and we will promptly communicate any updates or new developments along the way.
