Procurement infrastructure for complex productions.

The Challenge at Scale

More departments means more foreign purchases happening simultaneously: art, camera, grip, wardrobe, props, production office. Each one sourcing from different vendors, often on tight timelines.

Foreign-sourced invoices are discovered at wrap or during audit, when it is too late to correct. The larger the production, the more transactions slip through, and the greater the cumulative impact.

How We Help

We mirror your production’s department structure inside your Stork & Crane account. Each department has its own sub-account, buyers, balance allocation, and transaction history.

Department heads and buyers submit their own procurement requests. The production accountant sees everything: master balance, all transactions across all departments, consolidated reporting, and every document stored in one place.

For Production Accountants

• Every transaction produces a clean Canadian invoice with full landed cost breakdown
• Customs entries, sourcing logs, purchase orders, all stored in your document vault
• Procurement Activity Summary report, formatted and ready for your records
• Consolidated view across all departments: balance, spend, and history in one dashboard

For Line Producers & UPMs

• Department heads and buyers submit their own requests, with no bottleneck through your desk
• Same-day acknowledgment on every request, so your departments are never left waiting
• Oversight view: see all department activity without managing individual transactions
• Budget allocation by department: set balances per department and track spend against them
