Also known as: Recurring order

A standing order is an arrangement to supply a fixed quantity of goods at regular intervals without raising a new order each time.

Standing orders suit predictable, recurring needs — weekly pantry supplies, monthly consumables, routine deliveries — where the same items are needed on a regular schedule. Setting the order once removes repetitive administration and ensures consistent replenishment.

Because deliveries recur automatically, standing orders need periodic review so quantities still match actual consumption and pricing stays competitive. They are often set up against a blanket purchase order or framework agreement that fixes terms over a period.
