Frequently asked questions

Why can't I use a generic purchase order template?

Generic POs miss critical industry-specific terms like ASTM quality specs, MSHA safety compliance, and bulk delivery logistics. A specialized PO reduces the risk of receiving off-spec materials that can halt your production line.

What quality standards should I reference?

For aggregates, reference ASTM C33. For Portland cement, use ASTM C150. For other materials, you can reference your own internal specification or a recognized industry standard. The PO should state that the material must meet these specs.

How does MSHA compliance affect my purchase order?

If you are purchasing materials for use in a mine or quarry, MSHA regulations may apply. Including a clause requiring the supplier to comply with MSHA and provide safety data sheets helps ensure a safe workplace and regulatory compliance.
