Purchase/Labor Contract dilemma

  • 1.  Purchase/Labor Contract dilemma

    Posted 10/08/18 02:11 AM
    ​Hi everyone, I am looking at use of Purchase and/or Labor Contracts for managing outsourced maintenance of assets. We need to specify rates for crafts, materials, sundry items - all vary per company. However we do not know the named resources that perform the actual works so a Labor Contract will not really work for us.  Conversely a Purchase Contract can include any "standard service" but then I cannot define a craft explicitly eg. "electrician class1 $75/hr normal time for company ABC".   There are 30 rate types for each of 100 possible crafts. The obvious customisation is to add Craft/Skill to the Contract Line of the PC but this clearly has serious knockon effects to Purchase Order releases etc.  
    Has anyone got experience with solving this?
    thanks
