How Gofer Procurement works
Describe what you need
Teams explain their equipment or service requirements in plain language, without needing every detail locked in upfront.
Gofer helps shape the request
Gofer organises the information, filling gaps and structuring the request so it’s ready to share with the right suppliers.
Connect and manage in one place
Requests are shared with relevant suppliers, and responses are kept together so teams can review, compare, and move forward with confidence.
Tell Gofer what equipment or services you need, answer a few quick follow-up questions, and your job request is sent directly to relevant suppliers through iseekplant's network. No phone calls, no scattered emails, no chasing quotes. Just a faster, simpler way to source what you need and get your project moving.

Frequently asked questions
Is Gofer a chatbot?
ofer is a purpose-built AI procurement assistant, not a generic chatbot. While it uses conversational AI, its focus is entirely practical: helping construction teams describe what they need, structure those requirements into a proper request, and get that request in front of the right suppliers. It's built around real construction workflows, not general-purpose conversation.
What can Gofer help me source?
Gofer can help you source a wide range of construction equipment and services depending on your project needs. Whether you're looking for excavators, earthmoving equipment, civil plant, tipper trucks, crane hire, or specialist subcontractors, Gofer helps you describe the job, structure the request, and send it to relevant suppliers, without you needing to know every detail upfront.
How does Gofer find suppliers?
Gofer connects to iseekplant's established supplier network and matches your request with relevant local businesses based on your job details, location, and requirements. Rather than you having to search, call around, or send individual emails, Gofer handles the broad-reach quoting process — getting your request in front of multiple suppliers at once to reduce manual outreach.
Are my contact details shared automatically with suppliers?
No. Gofer keeps your details masked when sending quote requests, giving you full control over when and how you share your information. You decide if and when to make direct contact with a supplier, Gofer doesn't expose your details without your knowledge.
Can Gofer help if I'm not sure exactly what I need yet?
Yes. If you describe your project or job in plain language, Gofer can help guide you on what's typically required and point you in the right direction. Gofer helps shape the request by filling gaps and structuring the information so it's ready to share with the right suppliers.
How is Gofer different from searching for suppliers on iseekplant directly?
Gofer is designed to handle the admin layer that sits on top of supplier search. Rather than browsing listings and making individual enquiries, you describe what you need once and Gofer structures that into a proper request, sends it to multiple relevant suppliers simultaneously, and keeps a full searchable record of your procurement conversations. It removes the back-and-forth that slows projects down.
Does Gofer work for both small contractors and larger civil teams?
Yes. Gofer is built to support construction teams of all sizes. For sole traders and small contractors, it removes the time spent on phone calls and scattered emails when sourcing equipment. For larger civil teams managing multiple projects, it keeps procurement organised and consistent in one place.
Can I use Gofer on my phone or desktop?
Yes. Gofer is available as a web app and can be installed as a desktop or phone tile with full push notification support. This means your team can send and manage procurement requests from on site, in the office, or on the road.
Does Gofer Procurement work alongside Gofer Receptionist?
Yes, the two tools are complementary. Gofer Procurement handles your outbound sourcing and supplier communication, while Gofer Receptionist manages inbound calls, answers enquiries, captures lead details, and delivers structured summaries to your team. Together, they cover both sides of your construction business communications. Visit gofer.tech to explore the full platform.
